| - The Wiki's database includes an area for a single-letter (R, S, N or O) representing the level of canonicity of that element; these letters have since informally been applied to the levels of canon themselves: R-canon/C-Canon, S-canon, N-canon, and O-canon. As part of his work with the Wiki, Darth__Revan was responsible for the creation of this classification, and he spent the early stages developing and refining them into what they are today.

- Canon is a debatable term when it comes to the Homeworld series, as the series has changed ownership several times and different companies and different personnel have worked on them. After the release of Homeworld 2 in 2003 it was arguable that there was no-one to determine what was canon in the Homeworld universe and what was not. The acquisition of the Homeworld intellectual property in 2013 by Gearbox Software and the development of both Homeworld Remastered and Homeworld: Shipbreakers has changed this situation again, with the Homeworld franchise now a going concern. However, the new owners of the franchise have not yet made definitive statements on what is canon and what is not.

- Canon is material officially considered part of the primary continuity. See also Wikipedia:Canon (fiction).

- Canon is een begrip dat omschreven wordt als de officiële of vaak geaccepteerde richtlijn in de wereld van fictie en fantasy. Ook op Duckstad Wiki, en ook vaak op internetfora, wordt een canon gehanteerd. We onderscheiden drie lagen canonniteit waarin je elk verhaal of elke informatie in kan plaatsen.
- Canon is not defined in the Matrix franchise.

- Le canon est une arme à feu tubulaire de grande taille destinée à lancer des boulets, ou des nains à très grande distance, dans le but de faire exploser des trucs comme des châteaux forts, des châteaux de cartes ou les vertèbres du nain qu'on avait mis dans le canon. L'usage du canon est quelque peu tombé en désuétude de nos jours, ce qui explique en très grande partie la recrudescence des boulets, et des nains. Et qui dit recrudescence, dit hausse des prix à la pompe. C'est donc dans un but plus déflationniste que déflagrationniste que nous allons coiffer le canon au peigne fin, exposer ses objectifs plutôt que de les exploser, et continuer à nous moquer des nains, qui en plus d'être d'excellentes chairs à canons, sont petits et personnellement, me font assez peur.
- As a result of Jane’s tip, the police bring Ella in for questioning about Sydney’s murder. Ella naturally downplays the tension between her and Sydney prior to the murder. Meanwhile, Lauren is torn between going on a shopping date with Riley for her wedding and impressing her new boss Wendi who just set her up on a "date." A stunned Jonah is accused of stealing a diamond necklace from a mansion he videotaped for a realtor, but becomes even more upset after Ella mentions a similar necklace that she saw in David’s apartment.

- Canon is what we in the Templars of Twilight consider to be true to our "Templarverse". Our canon attempts to remain within the realms and boundaries of current canon. Either avoiding direct interaction with canon, or working within it in a manner that would allow it to not interfere. And example of this would be when the Templars acted as 'nameless' pilots of Sekotan fighters over Coruscant.
- Canon refers to a group of works considered to be central, vital, and legitimate in some field. One of its more common uses is in describing which books are considered valid parts of the Bible, with various Christian denominations using slightly different lists.

- From Wikipedia: While every single player-made character could be considered non-canon, the characters are what we would like to consider "Community-Canon," making them canonical in the Warcraft community. Non-canon would then, in turn, be considered non-community-canon.

- En Dragon Ball Z existen ciertos rellenos que fueron ideas del propio Akira Toriyama. El ejemplo más notorio son los episodios donde aparece Launch dado que Toriyama explicó que la historia de Launch y Ten Shin Han no podía ser contada en el manga pero sí podía profundizarse en el anime. Otro relleno pensado por él sería cuando Goku desprende un trozo de nube para comer pues Toriyama dijo "Goku no cruzaría un millón de kilómetros sin comer algo".
- Canon comes from the religious language, referring to the books and writings that make up authentic Scripture.

- Canon is official, endorsed work by the creator / author of a piece of work (such as a video game, a book, a movie, etc.)
- Canon is the body of fiction that we consider to have actually happened on the Transformers Universe MUX. Overall, on the MUX we consider the 80s Transformers cartoon and the 80s Marvel G.I. Joe comic series to be canon. We occasionally bring in elements from other sources (for example, the Transformers comic and the G.I. Joe cartoon), but if there's any conflict, the primary canon is the definitive source.
- The "authenticity" of information. Canon describes whether or not something is imperically verified in game. The only true canon source is the game itself.
- Considering the breadth of the Star Wars universe (including books, movies, toys, video games, etc) the issue of canon is an important one to Star Wars MUSH. In short, what should be considered official to the in character (IC) universe? Even excluding obvious sources that would be universally unpopular and a poor fit with the existing game (the Star Wars Christmas Special for example) there is still a great deal of possible reasonable lattitude in this area. Nonetheless, the MUSH administration have a very clear position on canon as it relates to theme.
- The term "Canon" denotes the material accepted as "official". It is often contrasted with, or used as the basis for, works of fanfiction and other fanworks, which are not considered canonical. In the case of South Park, the canon consists of all episodes excluding "City on the Edge of Forever", due to being a dream, and "Pip", due to taking place in Victorian England. The canonicity of the original Spirit of Christmas shorts, and the episode "Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus" is disputable.
- Canon is another word for official. The primary use of the term is to distinguish official settings and stories from individual troupes' chronicles and other fan-made fiction and resources. The secondary use of the term is to establish the official facts of a fictional setting (and, sometimes, to retroactively alter those facts in a retcon). Generally speaking, when the term "canon" is used on this wiki, the use of both definitions is implied.
- Canon is a word used to describe a fixed collection of text. In Arthur Ransome Wiki, canon refers to the following: 1.

* Information from films, TV series etc based on Arthur Ransome works can be considered canon as long as it does not contradict a higher source

- thumb|250pxCanon is de absolute waarheid van religie, literatuur en fictie. Ook de verhalen van Tolkien hebben een canon. Hoewel dat bij de verhalen van Tolkien eigenlijk voor iedereen anders is en sommige vinden dat er geen echte Canon is. Een reden hiervoor is dat er vele versies van verhalen zijn. Op bijvoorbeeld de Nederlandse wikipedia zeggen dat canon de Silmarillion, In de ban van de ring en de Hobbit is. Dus de eerste boeken die uit gegeven zijn.
- The term Canon refers to the source material of a given series. In the Legend of Zelda series, as well as the rest of fiction, the term refers to anything which has been established as fact by official sources, most particularly the games themselves and their manuals. It is canonical fact, for example, that all first-born daughters born in the Royal Family of Hyrule are to be named Zelda; this was established in the backstory for Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Some things which go against canon are regarded as non-canon, because they are not established as fact. For example it is non-canon that Link fought Mario as seen in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The term fanon refers to any information regarding the series created by fans, unincluded in official mediums, and is considered non-canon.
- Canon eli kaanoni on fillerin vastakohta. Sillä tarkoitetaan sisältöä, jota ei ole luotu Ne Pece -wikian artikkelin kirjoittamisen yhteydessä. Kaanoni on lähtöisin joko keskusteluista, piirroksista, mesetöherryksistä, dubbisarjasta, runoista tai vastaavista. Jotta jutusta tulee kaanonia, on siitä käytävä vähintään kahden keskeistä keskustelua.
- The Wiki believes that Rowling's word is law. Any material she has written or was involved in or has stated is canon is the highest level of canon - even the illustrations, drawings, hand-lettering etc. that she created are part of that. The Wiki also considers the texts written in their original language, J.K. Rowling's British English and editions with corrections she approved are the most valuable. When J.K. Rowling contradicts herself, the newest source is to be taken as the "most" canon.
- The last Canon was encountered by SG-1 when they arrived on the planet via the Stargate. He branded SG-1 as demons due to them coming from the "Circle of Darkness" (the local's name for the Stargate), and attempted to sacrifice them, along with a girl named Mary, to a Goa'uld with a Unas (Demons) host sent by Sokar.
- Mentre Star Trek diventava sempre più popolare e le dimensioni del suo universo crescevano, negli anni '80, i fan si trovarono di fronte al problema di come trattare la crescente collezione di episodi, film, romanzi, fumetti, manuali tecnici e altro. La definizione del canone di Star Trek, può variare tra i diversi appassionati, per questo motivo per fonti di riferimento come Memory Alpha, la questione diventa specialmente difficoltosa.
- The Wikipedia:Wikipedia definition of the word Wikipedia:canon includes the following definition: In fiction, canon is the officially authorized interpretation of characters and events. It is also sometimes described as "part of a fictional universe which has inarguable validity within". In fandom, the term is often used to distinguish between "canonical" accounts (i.e. those authorized by the copyright holder) and those of fanfiction, sometimes called fanon. In serial fiction, new material can contradict earlier material (a practice known as retconning), in which case the new material becomes canon. Publishers, especially in mainstream comic books, sometimes release "what-if" stories featuring non-canonical interpretations of their characters.
- Canon, in the context of a fictional universe, comprises those novels, stories, films, etc., that are considered to be genuine or officially sanctioned, and those events, characters, settings, etc., that are considered to have existence within the fictional universe. In order for a setting to appear cohesive, especially in fictions that contain multiple parts, both creators and audiences sometimes find it useful to define what has and has not "actually happened" in that universe.
- In the context of fiction, the canon of a fictional universe comprises those novels, stories, films, etc. that are considered to be genuine (or "official"), and those events, characters, settings, etc. that are considered to have inarguable existence within the universe. Usually items that are considered canon come from the original source of the universe while non-canon material comes from adaptations or unofficial items. See Image Comics Database:Universe Structure for more information about universe designations.
- Canon : In fiction, canon is the material accepted as officially part of the story in an individual universe of that story. Unfortunately later works in the same fictional 'universe' can directly contradict earlier 'Canon' (particularly when part of primary narrations, instead of mentions in dialog/thoughts of characters which might potentially be interpretation/opinion and NOT fact). This can lead to questions of that new material Who authoritatively is allowed this acceptance is also a matter of opinion (as in the case of sloppy later works by the same author). . . .
- To understand canon and continuity, the overall Star Wars saga should be looked at as a set of stories written by many different people which "document" past "events." Although some stories are more reliable than others, they all are looked upon as part of the overall "history." It should also be remembered that all of these stories are simply that—stories. There are numerous errors that inevitably arise between the stories simply because different authors have their own ways of telling the story and may not have the time and resources to perfectly align the details. This site deals with non-canon material by putting red text notification above the non-canon items.
- Canon, based in Japan, is one of the largest camera and lens manufacturers. Its lineup includes advanced SLRs as well as point-and-shoots. Unlike its chief rival Nikon, Canon also sells printers, copiers and such office machines besides cameras.
- The term Canon is generally used to refer to content, material, or information which is generally agreed to be authoritative and accurate. In fiction, Canon is often used to refer to the stories and elements of fictional worlds viewed as 'official' or 'approved.' In other words, Canon is the recognized, accepted and binding stories, backstory, plots, and elements that are seen as being 'accurate' or 'real' in the context of the fictional setting. Canon is most often seen as that content or information which is by and large seen as factual, established and set. It is also thus the content and information upon which all future development must hinge and respect.
- Canon is a word used to describe a fixed collection of text. In Tintin Wiki, canon refers to the following: 1.
* Latest of published Works by Herge 2.
* Information from earlier published works by Herge if not contradicted by later works 3.
* Information from Herge, from interviews, notes, diaries as long as it does not contradict a higher source, unless it is correcting a higher source 4.
* Information from films, TV series etc based on Herge's works, made with the permission of Herge or his agents or executors can be considered canon as long as it does not contradict a higher source
- Canon, in the context of a fictional universe, comprises those novels, stories, films, etc., that are considered to be genuine or officially sanctioned, and those events, characters, settings, etc., that are considered to have existence within the fictional universe.

Ceux qui sont définis dans les romans, dans les comics, ou dans les jeux, etc... ne le sont pas.
- Star Wars canon refers to the material related to the Star Wars universe that is officially considered to belong to the continuity, or storyline, of that universe. Because the Star Wars universe is a fictional one, elements of its continuity (i.e. historical events, character traits or actions, etc.) can change over time, having pieces added, removed, or overwritten. However, changing of the canon is generally discouraged.
- Canon var en manlig människa och han var den religiösa ledaren för en människa samhälle vars civilisation var i nivå med medeltida Europa.

- Kanon (written as Canon in the Del Rey and Kondansha Comics) (奏音 ?) is Ringo's Tuner and Kururu Sumeragi's cousin. He has an obsession for Ringo and seems to harbor romantic intentions, but some of his ambitions shatter when he openly plots to tamper with Ikki's A-T's. He presses on in his disregard for Tool Toul To's neutrality by actively battling against Kogarasumaru, though he at least seems to respect their leader.
- Canon is a term used to designate what is considered "official" in a certain fictional universe. With few possible exceptions only canon material is featured in the character pages. Non-canon material doesn't count - it never happened. The generally agreed-upon definition is that the work by the original author and creator of the fictional setting is canon, unless the author or the copyright holder declares otherwise. Few other exceptions are also possible and should be noted on the verse page.
- For consistency, the following levels of canon can be accepted in the Dune wiki. 1.
* Original Dune novels by Frank Herbert. Absolute canon. 2.
* Expanded Dune, such as Legends of Dune, Prelude to Dune, Heroes of Dune, Sequels of Dune and all novels by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. Official, but questionable, canon. 3.
* The Dune Encyclopedia. Although sanctioned by Frank Herbert himself, it is also Expanded Dune. It was recognized and admitted as non-canon by Willis E. McNelly himself in a relevant letter. 4.
* Dune movies, mini-series and video games are non-canon but official licensed products. Original concepts introduced by those works (for example House Ordos) can deserve individual articles but should always be noted as non-canon. Canon articles should conta
- Star Wars: Exodus has uniquely shaped its own version of "canon" for Star Wars. While We do follow Star Wars canon up until our "breakaway" point in our uniquely crafted timeline, we do not strictly adhere to Star Wars canon after a certain point in time. Previously, this was after the events of Return of the Jedi in what we are now branding as our own Legends canon. Our new canon's "breakaway" point is two years prior to the events that occur in The Force Awakens. However, it should be noted that, as the new Star Wars canon develops, we will be adapting to it to as deemed appropriate to our own storytelling. For more information, please refer to our official rules for this new storyline.
- Canon refers to the characteristics of a particular book, movie, TV show, etc., that make up a plot continuum, as opposed to fanon. Canon can also mean the works themselves. For example, the Harry Potter canon, which is one of the simpler examples, is the seven novels and two shorter books by J.K. Rowling. Harry, Ron, Hermione, Snape, and the other characters in the books are called canon characters or sometimes just "canons."
- Paramount Pictures and other "Powers That Be" have determined, for Star Trek, that all live-action series and feature films released by the copyright owner are canon. Some books, such as Star Trek Encyclopedia and Star Trek Chronology, are also seen as canon or having canon information until information "on-screen" contradicts them. Anything outside these categories, even if produced or sanctioned by Paramount, is not considered canon. The canon live-action series and movies are:
- To understand canon and continuity, the overall The Elder Scrolls series should be looked at as a set of stories written by many different people which "document" historical "events." Although some stories are more reliable than others, they all are looked upon as part of the overall "history." It should also be remembered that all of these stories are simply that—stories. There are numerous errors that inevitably arise between the stories simply because different authors have their own ways of telling the story and may not have the time and resources to perfectly align the details.
- The highest level of canon is the original Kinnikuman manga by Yudetamago, published in Weekly Shonen Jump. This shows the original story by the creator's themselves. It's because of this that all information found in the manga is canon unless stated otherwise.
- Canon is a term used to describe anything that can be used as a source of information when writing an article on a wiki. It is used by a great number of wikis to mean a great number of things; sometimes it describes books, sometimes films, websites, video games, images, comments made in passing by the author or even other articles. On the Potter Dictionary Wiki, however, the term canon denotes the ten Harry Potter books:
- Canon is a fan-based idea that exists in a unique way within Doctor Who fandom. In theory, it means a body of work that an established body of literature that can draw upon, but it is more commonly thought as what a fan considers what forms part of the Doctor Who universe, or what "really happened". This is often a personal choice, one which is endlessly discussed and argued about in just about every Doctor Who-related forum or message board that has existed on the internet. Unlike the Star Trek and Star Wars universes, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has never made a pronouncement about what is or is not canon for Doctor Who. In August 2010 however, the BBC did make a fleeting reference to canon, in relation to their Doctor Who: The Adventure Games, stating in their press relea
- Der Begriff Canon (\'ka-nen\ (n.)) ist eine definierte Ansammlung von Inhalten, die besondere Anerkennung genießen. Dieser Begriff stammt von „Kanon“ ab – eine Sammlung bedeutender, als gut anerkannter Werke der Literatur, welche als Pflichtlektüre gilt. Als Star Trek in den 1980ern an Größe und Popularität zunahm, mussten sich die Fans des Problems annehmen, wie man mit der weiter wachsenden Fülle an Episoden, Filmen, Büchern, Comics, technischen Dokumentationen, usw. umgehen sollte. __TOC__
