Be consistent about what "Sith" means. The old EU couldn't make up its mind about this.

Well, already the ANH novelization from 1977 described Vader as "a Dark Lord of the Sith was an awesome, threatening shape as it strode through the corridors of the rebel ship. Fear followed the footsteps of all the Dark Lords."

Apparently this was enough for Lucasfilm to prohibit Zahn the use of "Sith" for his noghris (what he originally wanted) but I think most people understand that Sith is the somewhat opposite of Jedi.

Personally I wholeheartedly agree that George Lucas Canon includes everything in the screenplay, novelizations and radio dramas unless such information contradicts the actual films.

Problem however is that Rogue One is probably going to rewrite the radio dramas how Princess Leia got her hands on the Death Star plans.

Frankly, I think the best thing to improve the nuEU would be first to sit down and create a database that has all the information from the films, novelizations, radio dramas and the contributions / concepts of the original artists and have that fixed first.

I want to see the original, anti-gravitational properties of tibanna gas (The Art of ESB) restored.
