Tolkien Gateway > Forums > Canon policy clarification


I need a little clarification about our new canon policy. How do we handle concepts which were clearly rejected by Tolkien? Should we put a non-canon template on Trotter? This query arose from seeing User:Dwarf Lord add characters to Category:Noncanon Dwarves - are Anar (dwarf), Burin, Hannar, Lofar, Nar (companion of Bilbo) non-canon? Should we take the latest editions of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings as "canon" but consider all 'Silmarilion' stuff subjective?-- KingAragorn  talk  contribs  edits  email  20:24, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
