Concerning the Canon of the Terminator Series

[Votron5]

After looking at some of the pages we have for the terminator franchise, there's a big difference in media for the scans.

I'm wondering what's our stance on what's considered canon for the terminator franchise? Do we follow the canon guideline at the terminator wiki, or do we already have a stance on it?

Terminator is more so a multiverse; the 1st two movies appear to be the primary canon regardless of timelines though. Not sure if the 1.1 or 2.1 stuff can be used for anything, but the three different timelines listed appear pretty accurate with some consideration that T(1 and 2) take place before Level 2 and Level 3 stuff each.

Ah, so level 2 and 3 material could be used as long as it doesn't contradict and is consistent with level 1 material.

Though, I wonder where novelizations and comics fall into that (If they even fall into those at all), as some of the profiles use scans from books and comics to justify some stats and powers.
