MarioWiki:Canonicity: Difference between revisions

Of course this does not mean there are not discrepancies between different installments of the greater ''Super Mario'' franchise. However, since there is no official canon, editors should not hold the events of one source to a higher canonicity than another, even if they disagree with each other. Discrepancies should be noted in articles, but not speculated on. Essentially, it is perfectly fine to include disagreements created by different media products and it is not the responsibility of the writers to fix continuity errors. The wiki's goal is to cover the entire ''Super Mario'' series, not to resolve discrepancies between different sources of information. Ultimately it is of no importance whether a particular source is "more canonical" than another source.

Lastly, it should be noted that, canonical or not, the Super Mario Wiki only covers official content, as well as unofficial but ''notable'' [[references|mainstream cameo appearances]]. Fan creations, such as fan-fiction, fan-made video games, or fan-theories, are not to be referenced within our articles.
