I actually need help with that canon article, now but this is in fact exactly what that policy is trying to solve.

In short, as it is written now; both the movie and the manga are the highest level of canon and thus both are to be presented in the article. As usually the case with retcons in other forms of media, in situations where there are conflicts, the most recent one takes priority.

In this case, as far as I can gather, nothing has yet to be drastically different between the film and the manga, though I could be wrong because seriously I haven't seen that damned movie, but as none of the articles have particularly exploded yet, I would say the only real difference is perhaps a bit of dialogue and some clothing, which is not all that bad.

TL;DR '''MERGE 'EM. IF SOMETHING BETWEEN THE MOVIE AND THE MANGA ARE IN DIRECT CONFLICT, MANGA TAKES PRIORITY AS IT IS THE NEWEST VERSION. WILL CONCEDE TO NOTE SOMEWHERE ABOUT THE RETCONS.'''

EDIT#2: And for those who hate me, in that canon policy I'm writing, here is a very cliffnoted version of the "canon tiers" that I'm trying out to sort this mess out.


 * K-canon: Anything made by Kishimoto & Kodachi. Highest priority goes to the most recent series, so yes, if there are retcons in the Boruto series for some reason, they overwrite what Kishimoto has made. He's not writing the series anymore and we have a wiki to continue updating.
 * A-canon: Anime canon, considered the second tier because anime is usually a straight adaptation, and things that don't directly contradict K-canon is considered gravy here.
 * C-canon: Continuity canon is everything created by official distributors and works on a similar base A-canon but is lower than both because this does not come from a weekly ongoing series. Think magazine interviews and novels.
 * N-canon: What-ifs.
 * Special Cases: Video Games: Way to confusing to cliffnote here. Basically, the stories themselves = N-Canon, terms and factoids = C-canon.
