Of the few people who have commented on this so far, opinion seems to be split equally among those against it and those for it, or at least tolerant of it.

There are two options as I see it:

1. A new namespace to designate fanon content (thus avoiding landing on these articles via the random page button)

2. A separate sister Wiki, as has been proposed on a few occasions. Links in fanon articles to canon pages then need only be changed to interwiki links. I can help with setting this up if need be. What would be done with the first option, Bluerock? A new namespace would have to be requested for the Wiki, e.g. "Fanon:", in order to differentiate it as separate content from standard articles. It's not enough to simply name them that way.

What are your thoughts on starting a Metal Gear fanon wiki, Jim? If you found one, you automatically become an admin, and you and other fanon writers can make your own rules for it. Something to think about anyway.
