That said, everybody has their own style of running a wikia and he may feel that what he is doing works well enough. So it may be necessary to be more explicit than just "it will improve things" or "it is run inappropriately", and point to specific things that you think could be done better (eg. if the policy is no fanon, then have no fanon; if it is ok to have some fanon then make the policy explicit) and why that will work better (less confusion from contributors). Thanks for the reply. I have tried to explain to him that the wiki has a clear rule of "don't write fanon" since the wiki is not an encyclopedia of fanon, but he still believes "notable" fanon should be recorded. I don't even see the difference, who cares if fanon is notable or not? The policy states "don't put fanon here", so I believe he is just harming the wiki for no apparent reason (especially with the silly restrictions he put on me, which I mentioned above), when many I've talked to do not like the wiki because of the fanon.

So hopefully this will be sorted out (I've made a discussion thread to get the wiki's stance on fanon) and we can improve further. :)
