Because its not canon if he wrote it without the companies permission... the hell is the matter with all of you.

Its very simple how this works... if he wrote it by the companies request, or if he wrote it while working at the company... then... CANON.

If he wrote it on his own, without it being approved by bethesda... then... NOT

And what is if Bethesda suddenly uses something he wrote without asking him? Like, for example, Heimskrs speech about Talos...?

They didnt use it, they used a part of it.

As I have said before, that is just a reference to a fan-work. I can find about... 5000 examples of creators of something including references to fan fiction, or fandom, in pretty much everything.

Yeah, that part is canon... they canonized it, do you have a point? But they only included a part of it, maybe they didnt include the rest of it because they didn't want those parts to be canon?

And that sure as heck doesnt mean other stuff he has written that is completely unrelated to that is canon. I addressed this point earlier, multiple times in multiple threads.
