Canonicity

I wonder if this would be better served with a {{protocanon}} template at the top of the page where necessary. Stories that are paracanon are probably listed as canon anyways, yes? And stories that are non-canon would simply not be shown in this website. So the only stories for which canonicity is anything other than canon are those which contain protocanon, and we already have a template for that.

I also think this dispels the intended impression of an open setting. There is a sort of stamp of approval in having something recognized by you at all, Skunks&, but to emphasize canonicity as an intrinsic property that something may or, pointedly, may not have seems a little fraught, don't you think?
