Hey, I too want to repeat for the thousandth time that in the last year or so, there have been a lot of canon discussions in this wiki, while completely ignoring that with the canonification of The Last and Boruto as well as the release of the Naruto Hiden/Shinden novels and the Boruto manga, these discussions were not only completely justified, but even needed (bolded, because I know you like that, Sajuuk).

What seemingly only you do not understand is that no one ever applied their own canonicity rules here. Like, ever. We only ever discussed how to handle contradicting information that especially saw a rise with the release of the novels (Gaara's Magnet Release, for example). And we all agreed on that we continue to handle this information as we always do: By making clear that it comes from a novel and thus is not canon to our main source, the manga. So if anyone ever (seriously) talked about canon and non-canon, then that's what they talked about. You're probably the only one who complained about these discussions and I never understood why. We don't force our opinions on anyone or try to tell them anything, we only talk about how we present conflicting information. You were always the only one who made a bigger issue out of this topic.

So, regarding this topic, I don't understand why exactly we need this. Our canon is the manga and any adaption is considered non-canon, simply because it's not the source material and information presented in the adaptions is often contradicting the manga. Hell, even the manga is contradicting the manga, so according to this policy, what do we do then? As Sajuuk said, we always displayed non-canon information through the use of In the anime etc. and we always considered manga information to be the truest source.

So yeah, what exactly would this policy change?
