How do we have both Bethesda canon and Zenimax canon on a page, without making our own, personalized interpretation or not include the one shared by most? And how do we avoid them destroying each other? We simply don't because it's literally impossible - we stick to in-game lore and support MK texts as OOG, nothing more.

We can't have my C0DA on an article, mixed in with Bethesda's C0DA and some anon's C0DA. This gets the wiki deep into the realm of edit wars on every topic. Since there is "no canon" according to MK, then every viewpoint is valid - not just one shared my many people. That's not something a wiki can support and hope to keep any semblance of order.

C0DA is not designed to be documented on this kind of wiki. Such discussion is better suited to the forums or an entirely different wikia that someone interested can go set up.

Why don't we just mention on the pages how there are multiple lore interpretations? That way, we could explain them all. We're writing for a RPG series that is known for having contradictory lore, so of course this is going to be difficult, but I do feel that everything should be added.
