Don't toss off too hard now.

But Vien, I did approximately 1/3 of something that over a hundred thousand people will have forgotten about by tomorrow.

Cybot Galactica, Palpatine's lightsaber, and Yoda becoming Obi Wan's master after knighthood wasn't in any of the movies either.

Obi Wan says to Luke in Empire "You will go to the Dagobah system. There you will learn from Yoda, the Jedi Master who instructed me."

In the prequels we learn a lot about the hierarchy of the Jedi Order, and in RoTS Anakin is a knight but he is still Obi-Wan's apprentice. This is solidified further by The Clone Wars.

So when Obi-Wan says in Empire that he was Yoda's apprentice, and considering that Obi-Wan became a Knight the same moment his master died. It's not a matter of books or semantics, it's two pieces of information about the same subject that form a complete idea.

Palpatine is shown to be truly fearsome with a lightsaber in RoTS, yes, but there's more to the story.
Since no Jedi had ever heard of Darth Maul, unlike Dooku, it is clear that it was Palpatine's training alone which turned Maul into such a devastating combatant. This means Sideous is also very skilled with a saberstaff. Maul used almost no force powers in battle and was defeated by a padawan, so when Dooku became palpatine's apprentice he realized a much greater need for the force in a combat setting, where before most of their force training had been in mysticism. (creating life, blinding the jedi to the dark side, things of that nature) Dooku receives almost no lightsaber training from Palpatine. His lightsaber style (revealed in books to be called Makashi, invented and used solely by the Jedi Order) is the same we see Ki-Adi Mundi use in the films, so even without the info from the books, we can tell Palpatine did not teach Dooku lightsaber combat. Dooku's force powers grew immensely under the tutelage of Sideous though, and he is even shown to be a match for Yoda, where at the time of his retirement from the Jedi Order his health was failing and his powers waning. (mentioned in Ep II)

This shows a pivotal shift in Palpatine's approach to combat, which is confirmed when he vilifies lightsabers, and in Jedi fights using the force alone.

In short: Because Maul exists we know Palpatine has to have lightsaber skills in Ep I, verified in Ep III, and by Ep VI he has changed his style so much he only uses the force and talks shit about lightsabers. In that time he lost two very promising apprentices (Vader lives but is never the same) who relied too much on their lightsabers. It isn't rocket science.

The part about Palpatine being one of the most fearsome combatants in the history of the galaxy does come from books though, but that isn't the key point.

C-3PO never says anything about where he came from at all in the movies.
It is verified in Empire though that he is not one-of-a-kind, and in Ep I Anakin says that he found the him in the junkyard and had been stealing parts from Watto to fix him. 3PO's being a standard model supported by the fact that the very person who finished building 3PO was Uncle Owen, who did not immediately recognize 3PO even when he started talking.

Cybot Galactica is identified as his manufacturer in a visual dictionary.

Fans did not come up with any of that, it was all authors and writers hired by Lucasfilm or Disney, or it was in the movies but it wasn't as obvious as Morgan Freeman showing up to explain what's going on.
