Revision as of 16:35, 7 September 2011
Forum: The Situation Room > Press releases as canon
As this has come up with Phillips (Day 8) and Craig Erwich and probably others, I wanted to get answer on whether or not the official fox press releases should be added to the list of oou-sources where we can get new character names. It was brought up before at User talk:Rebel2477, but never resolved into the canon policy. 24 spoilers, an excellent 24 fansite, has got quite a few of them posted on their site. I'd be in favour of them as they are official and from fox. Anyone else agree/disagree?--Acer4666 12:03, September 7, 2011 (UTC)
- I would love to do it, but in general what certainty do we have that they are unaltered?
