This is one of the canon vs fandom issues. The official canon statement about Foreven sector and all the contents is it is a Referee's preserve, and there is no canon for the sector. There have been several fan efforts to produce data for the sector (e.g. [https://zhodani.space/data/CLASSIC/FOREVEN/FOREVEN_LBB-style.pdf Foreven PDF] or [http://www.downport.com/bard/bard/opal/opal10516.html BARD library]). And this data is what exists in the Wiki. So do we want to leave this data, do a better job of marking it as non-canon, ATU, or simply remove it.

I feel that the Wiki should accommodate all contributors to the Referees Preserves equally instead of who wrote up the entry first.  I have new Urnian Subsector data for a campaign and would like it found just as easily as other non-canon contributors to Foreven Sector, published or private.[[User:The Pakkrat|The Pakkrat]] ([[User talk:The Pakkrat|talk]]) 10:50, 23 November 2019 (EST)

Foreven: The referee's preserve

This is one of the canon vs fandom issues. The official canon statement about Foreven sector and all the contents is it is a Referee's preserve, and there is no canon for the sector. There have been several fan efforts to produce data for the sector (e.g. Foreven PDF or BARD library). And this data is what exists in the Wiki. So do we want to leave this data, do a better job of marking it as non-canon, ATU, or simply remove it. Tjoneslo (talk) 10:01, 23 November 2019 (EST)
