::It's certainly possible to add extra fields to the {{Template|Wiki}}. Naturally, I'd recommend creating a proposal for such first. (I think there's a link to proposals on the [[WikiIndex:Community portal]].) Whether or not a wiki allows advertising seems like a logical addition to the template. Just recently, Speckmade added the "license" field to let people know how their work will be copyrighted/attributed if they should submit information to a wiki. Of course, even without adding it to the template, you can always add to the text. | ::It's certainly possible to add extra fields to the {{Template|Wiki}}.

::As far as the canon/fanon issue, I think I created a [[:Category:Fanon]] a while back. Whoops, nope, it wasn't me, but someone else did. There's also a few wikis tagged with the non-existant [[:Category:Fandom]]. Taxonomy around here is from the ground up, although I've done some sorting just to try and lump like items together. I don't think there's a [[:Category:Canon]], but there could be. Regardless, that's totally appropriate info to add to a wiki's article. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 18:59, 9 May 2009 (EDT) | ::As far as the canon/fanon issue, I think I created a [[:Category:Fanon]] a while back.

:::As for [[:Category:Fandom]] that has got to be slightly different to [[:Category:Fanon]]. There are plenty of things that fans ''might'' do that do not involve canon or fanon. Maybe Category:Fandom should be the parent category to Category:Canon and [[:Category:Fanon]].
