:Exactly. The guides are '''not''' a canon source of information.

::Matt and Mandi, I respect your opinions on the matter and I know the guides may not seem canon to some, but the fact of the matter is that is a matter of opinion. Simply saying something is not canon as a matter of opinion does not make it true, and I have put no theories or conjecture into any article to my knowledge, and if I have, I would agree that it be reworded to make it otherwise. But neither of you has provided a legitimate reason beyond opinions to discredit the source, and we do take other written materials such as manuals and books as canon in other instances here. I still do not see how either of you can discredit this source when this book was made specially for the game itself, not a manga or storybook, it was for the GAME itself, even giving pictures and a detailed walkthrough for the game. I also noticed the Nintendo seal on the packaging for the guide when I bought it, that proves to me that Nintendo did indeed view this guide before it was published, as they must with all of them. I do not believe Ganondorfdude11 understands copyright/trademark laws or he just isn't willing to acknowledge that they do work a certain way. Nintendo had to see this guide before publication, there would have been legal trouble had they not. I do not write fan fiction, so please do not insinuate that I do. And I will thank you to quit trying to act like I'm saying I "own" the articles, b/c I made it very clear above that I do not, but I will not be ramrodded on a project which I have been working and have no say-so in it, b/c I took the initiative to begin it. Ganondorfdude11 just came in at the tail-end and acts like HE owns it, and refuses to compromise on final edits to it. It's either his way or no way, and I do not accept that. Neither of you have said a word to him about this, so until you do, I'm afraid I don't give much credibility to what either of you are saying until you show impartiality in this case. And by the same token, nothing gives you the right to assert that I'm doing things I really am not. This is not meant to mean any disrespect to either of you, but neither of you have shown impartiality here. All you have given are opinions, and since you have no official policy to discount this properly sourced quote, you have not produced any reason that it be removed. Even Nick said that it is somewhat legitimate and that as long as it was properly sourced, it was fine with him. I stand by what I've said, that you have not provided any policy that states this source cannot be used, that all you've offered are opinions, and that is not enough to discredit an official source.
