Take for example the two Elder Scrolls novels, Infernal City and Lord of Souls. Both were written by Greg Keyes, an author un-affiliated with Bethesda. Yet they used his novels as canon for Skyrim. His novels had the following in them: the Thalmor, the Red Year, the Argonian Invasion of Morrowind, the Mede Dynasty, years before they were first introduced in-game in Skyrim. Though to be fair, Keyes does state in hte foreward that he worked closely with Bethesda to ensure the novels were accurate.

So if anyone thinks Kirkbride's writtings aren't canon just because he's not with Bethesda anymore, that's false. That settles it then.

But what of C0DA? Can it be considered canon? Especially with the overlaping of the TES world and ours in such a ridiculous way. And the thing with the gods.

And therefor i am asking myself: Can only parts of MK´s work be considered canon? Or is motto everything or nothing?
