Or: how do you want to subcategorize large franchises?
All Media Types? Into subfandoms? By time period? By location?
Make a thread for your canon (unless there is one already), and then argue out in the subcomments.

Old Republic Era
Prequel Era
Original Trilogy Era
Sequel Era
Then there's Canon vs Legends as far as material goes.
And not everyone agrees what is in each era. Like, obviously Rogue One should go with Original Trilogy because it's literally MINUTES before the first movie opens. But what about Rebels? It follows The Clone Wars, yet is closer in time to the Original Trilogy.
But most of us, as readers and/or writers, can really only comfortably work in certain eras, so the All Media Types sometimes bites us.
Personally, as long as I can narrow my selection down by characters and/or pairings, All Media Types does work best for me, mostly because I like to dabble in multiple eras.
Then I'd break it out by sets.
Prequel Trilogy
Original Trilogy
Sequels/The Force Awakens
The Clone Wars
Rebels
Knights of the Old Republic
Star Wars Legends
Rogue One
(I am possibly missing major blocks, but those are the ones coming to mind fastest.)
Based on this and this, I think I'd split Legends like Wookieepedia does, and maybe split Canon into Films-Only and Everything?
