That should suffice. I recall SCP needs 30, but Backrooms less popular, etc, etc.

Rejection on the basis of @Bobsican 's "Create tier 0 penguin" argument is a horrible argument for a permanent rejection, Phoenks.

Ok.
In that case I'll wait.
Maybe I'll give my own thoughts on why this is horrible.

As I said before, previous thread didn't reject Backrooms. Mori rewrote the rule into this, in other words:
1. Strict enough rules - check.
2. Centralized - check (as in is is wikidot Backrooms only).
Even prior we decided to wait since at the time Backrooms were still fairly new and all.

Why only Wikidot though? Just asking.

- #135
the thing is that canons can be connected to other wikis (for example, fandom wiki’s convergence canon is an extension of the wikidot’s pantheon canon), but for most part wikidot is gonna be used for indexing cuz of its regulations, popularity, etc. its just the baseline, but i dont see a problem with indexing kane pixels’s series also. The backrooms verse page would just encompass everything that can be indexed without problem. theres no definite canon. ofc, that means u need to put a note for every profile like i do in my profiles. but if anyone disagrees let me know

Wouldn't it make Fandom another key if is just another canon?

for profiles? it would just go under extend canon for character’s key like scp 682, article canon is always first thing to index and first key

So basically what I said lol.

essentially there is no new arguements for opposing this decision right?

Don't bump so frequently. I'll call the staff from the last thread to evaluate this:

Evaluate these people's arguments for allowing the Backrooms. I'm neutral and am just monitoring the thread.

We've had discussions on the backrooms. Wikidot was deemed okay, I don't think anything else was- maybe the original creator, but as its own verse and not alongside the wikidot.
- 11,091
- 2,392
I see. That's an agree.
- 4,107
- 4,822
Probably made because of an uncertainty.
- 11,091

Nope. Just the same proposal

The last thread established new rule but was somehow not added, despite being agreed upon. And overall the ending was a bit confusing.
Overall we just need to be sure that rules of Wikidot’s Backrooms are strict enough for our standards.

Which it has shown to be strict.

I see. Bureaucracy tends to lead to such shit. I'll go over the last thread and this one when I have time- I'm at work, presently- to make sure everything is in order and, if necessary, add whatever rules need adding.

Alright.
I've reviewed the first thread, the consensus was that the Wikidot was not allowed at that time but further context may allow it. Kane Pixels was generally permissible. The second thread has less meat to it and concluded before the first, so I will take the first as Staff Gospel.
What this means is that the Backrooms Wiki is not necessarily rejected, and you could argue for its inclusion (it's been about a year, after all), but you would need to provide a reason for us to add it that wasn't included in the last thread. That can be provided here, if you like, but it's probably simpler to then make a new thread, if it is your goal to use the Backrooms Wiki.
Otherwise, Kane Pixels is perfectly acceptable to add. I am speaking with Mori about where we should actually place the rule- at the moment, I believe it would fall just below the Web Novel rules in Editing Rules.

The primary issue is that Kane Pixels’ interpretation lacks depth, and there is very little if anything within the series to actually powerscale. Furthermore, the Wikidot predates Kane’s interpretation by two years, and provides a lot more mileage with its extensive lore. The Wikidot is strict in its standards and quality control, so it should be passable as official material rather than fan works.

I'm aware of that. Regardless, Kane Pixels was the only set of Backrooms fiction accepted for profile creation.
