-Things are considered "hard canon" if they have an approved wiki article that is based on events in the roleplay. They are part of the universe's continuity (e.g. the series of events that make up the timeline). For example, the history of the [[stararmy:starships:yss_eucharis]] or the [[faction:yamatai:history:the_freespacer_genocide]]. Star Army is a long-running roleplay so a lot of our history found on the wiki actually occurred in the RP, making it hard canon. You can tell these type of articles because they often have links in the footnotes to the related roleplaying threads (and we encourage you to do that).+Things are considered "hard canon" if they have an approved wiki article that is based on events in the roleplay.

 Hard canon should never be changed unless //absolutely// necessary, as this could invalidate people's RP. Such a retcon can only be approved by the Setting Manager. Hard canon should never be changed unless //absolutely// necessary, as this could invalidate people's RP.
