Revision as of 01:58, 10 June 2009
G-canon kinda implies that it is in some way canon, which it ain't. How's about we rename it G-fanon? After all, it's fanon not canon. - Snail 21:16, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I don't understand. First of all, G-canon is the term I read on HLP so using a different term would be pointless (I'm not inventing anything). Also, I'd like to remember that the article specifies that G-canon isn't V canon. We have several terms with the word canon on them (like "INF canon") which surely aren't connected to V. --- Mobius
- I've rewritten the main page to clarify these discrepancies. However the GTI is most certainly not the NTF. - Goober5000 19:11, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
- Does anyone actually use this term? It's interesting and kind of cool, but this seems like a case of trying to create the term rather than referring to something in broad use. General Battuta 03:14, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
- It was used in a forum thread at least once. However I don't know if it was used more than that. :) Is there a page for "Blue Planet canon", "Inferno canon", "Derelict canon", etc.? If not, we could probably delete this page. - Goober5000 19:11, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
- We do have the Derelict banner. That's the only thing similar. If we could get similar banners for the various continuities, that'd actually be really cool, since I think the Derelict banner looks great.General Battuta 22:19, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
