I require some input for elaboration on what should consider as fan and official material for the policy. So far the only thing solid we have is that information and media must appear in AT LEAST ONE officially supported or licensed media.

I wanted to bring this to attention because of this: http://imgur.com/a/LeJWk

Since its obvious that Sega, subsidiaries and affiliates are hiring fan workers left right and center, it will be inevitable that many people will confused about what constitutes as official and fan information material. In the example I provided above, it appears that artist Jennifer Hernandez managed to sneak in one of her many fan-characters into the comics. Whether the licensors were aware of this is unclear, most likely not.

So in such cases of something appearing in at least one officially supported or licensed media rule, this fan character of hers would therefore count as official material.

This issue needs to be clarified and elaborated upon. In such a case, if information available, constitutes a main-article page for characters, objects, locations etc. for content like this?

What do you think?
