I know that there's a difference, hence me saying "be it through a different portal (a mainspace fanon section, i.e. "Fanon:") or through blogs (secondary discussion section). I get your point, though, but I don't see why topics couldn't be controlled. Blogs for news and Dark Souls discussion purposes are fine, imo; blatant fanfic is not encyclopedic in the slightest, and is practically irrelevant and useless. Do popular and reliable wikis like Memory Alpha, Marvel Database, Wookieepedia, WoWWiki/Wowpedia, LyricWiki, Halopedia/Halo Nation, Harry Potter Wiki, etc. allow fanfic? No, because they pride themselves with being encyclopedic wikis, rather than fanfiction sites of any kind.

@Zelron: Yes, there is a difference. DS news and dicussion via blogs can benefit the wiki by revealing and clearing up matters. What does fanfiction contribute to the wiki? Trick question; nothing.
