When there are important gaps in a work's Canon, there are a few ways that they can be filled in (short of within the work proper, which would just be additional Canon). Sometimes, creators say stuff about important gaps in canon. This is Word of God. Sometimes, people close to the creator say stuff about important gaps in the canon. That's Word of Saint Paul. If Word of neither God nor Saint Paul is available, fans will often make stuff up themselves to fill in important gaps in canon. This is Fanon. Sometimes, a Fandom VIP, creator of an adaptation or Loose Canon work, or other independent authority makes an assertion about the gaps in the canon, creating influential and high-profile Fanon which may be mistaken for canon. This is Word of Dante. Unfortunately, the fine distinction can be hard for info-hungry fans to spot. Sometimes, false information on canon is wrongly attributed to the creators or original work. Other times, God or Saint Paul did say it, but fans misunderstood what they meant. Whatever the case, it leads to Gossip Evolution, and only later do people realize God Never Said That. Subtrope of Common Knowledge and Mandela Effect. God Never Said That differs from Beam Me Up, Scotty! in that the latter is about things characters never said or did, while this one is more about lore and behind-the-scenes trivia. Compare Urban Legends and Pop Culture Urban Legends, which propagate themselves by similar means. This is occasionally what happens when the line between Fanon and Canon is blurred. Note that while God's words can fall victim to this trope, it also applies to human authors who are gods of the worlds they create. |

Tangle the Lemur from Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW) has never been explicitly confirmed to be a lesbian or in a relationship with Whisper the Wolf. The closest they've come is Evan Stanley saying that her sexuality doesn't matter as fans would love her either way, and Ian Flynn expressing support for the pairing, but noting that Sega prohibited any romantic relationships in the comic, regardless of sexuality. | |

Various detractors of the PRT and Director Piggot in Worm have cited a supposed quote from Wildbow saying that if Taylor had joined the Wards, discovered Sophia was also a Ward, and reported Sophia's bullying to Piggot, Piggot would have told Taylor to "suck it up". What Wildbow actually said was that Sophia would be taken off patrol, constantly monitored, and stuck on public relations duty, but because the PRT had spent months promoting Shadow Stalker as the prime example of a reformed vigilante, they wouldn't be able to take her off the Wards entirely without undoing that work. | |

There used to be a rumor about a gratuitous sex scene in the last book. Everyone heard that rumor (from everyone else), and all the sources claimed to have heard it straight from the author. A video on The Onion about Rowling including a date rape in an upcoming Potter book may have had something to do with the rumor. | |

When Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) was officially cancelled in 2016, the most common reason cited was as a direct consequence of Ken Penders lawsuit regarding the characters he created for the comic. While it's likely to have at least played a part, no one from Archie has ever cited it as the definitive reason as to why the comic was cancelled. | |

Just one example occurred with Star Trek: Enterprise which raised the ire of some fans for establishing a Vulcan serving with Starfleet, when the belief was Spock was the first. Many claims were made that the series violated established on-screen canon in this regard... until members of one of the Star Trek fan forums actually went back through all the televised episodes and movies and could find no such reference to Spock being the first Vulcan in Starfleet. (In fact, the existence of an all-Vulcan ship — USS Intrepid, NCC-1631 — in the original series, in the episode "The Immunity Syndrome", establishes that Vulcans in Starfleet are not especially new or unusual.) | |

Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation was notorious because of the unpopularity of the fifth female turtle Venus de Milo, who was despised by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Peter Laird so much that she was barred from making appearances in any other continuities for the rest of the duration that the franchise was in his hands. After Nickelodeon obtained the rights to the franchise, many of Venus's detractors who wished for Venus to remain Exiled from Continuity cited both co-creators hating the character as a reason for why she shouldn't return, though the other co-creator Kevin Eastman has actually stated openly in an interview after Nickelodeon's acquisition of the franchise that he actually likes the character and hopes for her to someday make a comeback. | |

Prior to the airing of the pilot episode for Fear the Walking Dead, the actress who played the undead Gloria gave an interview to Comicbook.com in which she believed that "everything started with Gloria". The site and many other news outlets, including Metro Newspapers, Hitfix and fansites, took this to mean that Gloria was the first walker ever created (Patient Zero), and ran stories to this effect. However, Gloria is not the first walker in the series - in the pilot, Tobias tells Madison Clark the morning after Nick's encounter with Gloria that he has heard reports of the dead coming back to life in five states, showing that the dead were reanimating before Gloria was infected. Yet, this hasn't stopped some fans from still believing this to be the case. | |

Stand Still, Stay Silent had a huge fandom uproar when it turned out that an authorial statement in The Rant had been widely misinterpreted by the fans, leading the fandom to believe that there would be no named character deaths. This turned out to be false. The author released a statement saying that she was sorry for stringing her fans along for so long, but that the only way to debunk the rumor was to spoil the majority of the main Story Arc. | |

RWBY: Volume 5 is already the most disliked season of the show, but some reasons that got touted shortly after release were fans claiming that they were promised the return of fan-favorite character Neopolitan and that we'd meet Pyrrha's parents, neither of which happened. The creators went on to clarify that they only said Neo would return soon; Volume 6 would feature both a dedicated subplot for Neo and a oneshot appearance by someone heavily hinted to be Pyrrha's mother. Samantha Ireland, Nora's voice actress, said during a convention before Volume 7 that Nora would get interesting content in relation with her backstory. This caused people to assume she said that Nora would be getting her backstory in the Volume, leading to blowback when this supposed backstory never surfaced. Opponents of pairings between two or more of the eponymous team's members will quote Monty Oum as saying that he imagined them as being close in platonic, "sisterly" ways, the implication (or outright statement) being that it would go against his vision. However, no proof that Oum ever said anything like this has surfaced as of yet. |

Beauty and the Beast: The Beast is never given a name in the film, though many fans will tell you that he's called "Adam" in the commentary. Actually, the commentary just mentions that they forgot to give the Beast a name. Even though "Adam" has sneaked its way into into a small handful tie-in media, such as a computer trivia game called The D-Show, the Beast continues to not have an official name with Disney continuing to make a point of calling him just "the Beast" or "the Prince". | |

Plenty in the Harry Potter fandom: There used to be a rumor about a gratuitous sex scene in the last book. Everyone heard that rumor (from everyone else), and all the sources claimed to have heard it straight from the author. A video on The Onion about Rowling including a date rape in an upcoming Potter book may have had something to do with the rumor. It was rumored that Rowling had confirmed Harry Potter and the Green Flame Torch/Pillar of Storge/Fortress of Shadows as the title of books six/seven. She responded by suggesting Harry Potter and The Toenail of Icklibogg. There was an article Harry/Hermione shippers would sometimes cite which claimed Rowling had said Harry would develop "more of an interest in pal Hermione" in book 5. Nobody was able to trace this to an actual interview, and it ended up being Jossed. More information here. Rowling never said that she may have subconsciously let the name "Harry Potter" from the Troll series seep into her story, regardless of what Phelous or any number of other people may tell you. What she actually said is that she took the name "Potter" from a family she was friends with as a child, and "Harry" simply because she has always loved that name. In 2016, she published a story about how there are eleven prestigious Wizarding schools in the world but explained that are plenty of smaller ones as well. Some people have squabbled with the fact that Europe has three but the continents of Africa, South America, and North America have one each. Japan has one as well, leaving four of those locations unknown. She never said that there were no schools in say, continental Asia, just that there wasn’t one with a storied history while also leaving the door open for one (or more) of the undisclosed schools to be there. There's a quote floating around on the Internet which confirms the fanon belief that Nagini is the snake Harry set free from the zoo, specifically "Yes, it’s rather funny, really, that next to no one realized the snake that Harry set free in Philosopher's Stone turned out to be Voldemort's final Horcrux, Nagini." It's completely untrue. There's also a scientific hole in the theory, incidentally. Harry set a boa constrictor loose, which in the movies, was a Burmese python. Neither one is venomous or has fangs. Nagini is and does. There are persistent rumors that Rowling said "In a fight between a wizard and a muggle with a shotgun, the muggle will win every time." This quote has never been traced, and whether muggles or wizards would win is a continuing debate. Rose/Scorpius Shippers will often claim that Rowling has confirmed that Rose and Scorpius eventually ended up together. She hasn't. When last we saw the characters in the play The Cursed Child, Scorpius had an unrequited crush on Rose and that's all we know. A really old one that people love to misquote, but Rowling never actually said that people were delusional if they ship Harry/Hermione; that was the owner of Mugglenet.com, Emerson Spartz. In February 2014, Rowling gave an interview where she commented that Ron and Hermione would have a rocky relationship, but probably be happy after marriage counseling. A preview of the interview took that section out of context, and the press quickly twisted it into "Rowling says she should have put Hermione with Harry instead of Ron" (Harry was barely even mentioned in the interview). Naturally, fans then twisted this into "Word of God has declared that Harry and Hermione are actually canon, Distant Epilogue be damned." An often overlooked segment of the interview is Rowling stating that the Ron/Hermione pairing was Wish-Fulfillment on her part, Hermione being an admitted Author Avatar - the obvious implication being that Rowling herself would choose Ron. Rowling is often quoted on saying that Lord Voldemort was born physically incapable of loving because he was conceived under the effects of a love potion. What she actually said was that him being conceived under artificial love is supposed to symbolise his lack of understanding for love, not that it actively caused it. In the same interview, she goes on to note that he would have turned out differently if Merope had lived and raised him herself, which instantly contradicts the often Rowling-cited notion that Voldemort was born inherently evil. Certain fans are fond of accusing Rowling of having said that autism could be "cured" with magic. What she actually said was that magic can easily cure non-magical illnesses, but magical injuries and diseases were more difficult (which is to say, this is why a wizard can overcome the flu with a simple potion, but potentially die of dragon pox). Autism, being a developmental disorder, is not the same as an illness. On the old version of her website, Rowling had an entire section called the "Rubbish Bin" devoted to debunking rumors about both herself and the Harry Potter series. It can still be viewed in archived form. In another spot on her website, Rowling debunked the common belief that she'd said she originally wrote Philosopher's Stone on napkins, explaining that it was written on notepads. It didn't help that even the author biography in some editions of the books repeated the "napkins" idea. Many people also seem to believe that Rowling said she had originally planned to have Hermione end up with Fred Weasley. She never did. In 2019, a post by entertainment magazine Complex went viral that took something she said about Dumbledore and Grindelwald way out of context. It said she said they had an “intensely sexual relationship� which took two separate things she said and put them together. She said it was intense and that there was a sexual element to it, she didn’t say the sexual part was intense. She was accused of fetishizing it. However, if you actually watch the interview it’s from, she goes out of her way to say she’s not really interested in the sexual side, she was more interested in the clash of two equals side. |

No one involved in the production of Jurassic World ever said that they were giving the second and third film the Canon Discontinuity treatment, and in fact, the viral marketing of the film heavily referenced the events of those two films. This didn't stop many reviewers from erroneously stating that the fourth film had erased the previous two sequels from existence, to the point where some viewers even complained that the filmmaker's were contradicting themselves when the latter sequels directly referenced those films. | |

Lucas supposedly changes his position on how many movies there were originally supposed to be every other week. The official position is that, at his most ambitious, he wanted twelve, but, realizing it was unfeasible, decided on nine. At some point very early into the original trilogy he realized that he did not want to make nine movies, and incorporated the sequel trilogy into Return of the Jedi. In interviews he refers to his planning process in all its stages, leading to the confusion. | |

Being to video games what Roger Rabbit was to classic Western animation, Wreck-It Ralph has a ton of cameos from real video game characters. A number of Nintendo-owned characters and references show up, but Mario himself didn't get a direct cameo, only a verbal reference. A rumor spread like wildfire that Mario didn't get in because Nintendo demanded too much money, and that the director said so. As it turns out, this is patently false. In a video interview (around 15:30) with FirstShowing.net, director Rich Moore debunks the rumor, positing that it grew out of a joke John C. Reilly made at Comic-Con when he said "Luigi wants more money than Mario." In reality, the creators were able to use Mario; they just didn't know what to do with him. They felt that he was too important a gaming icon for a short gag, but were unable to figure out a bigger role in the narrative that he could have, so they chose to forego him. | |

No one involved in the production of Jurassic World Dominion said that it would be the last film of the franchise. What Trevorrow did say is that it will conclude the character arcs of the stars from the original series (Dr. Grant, Dr. Sattler and Dr. Malcolm) and the World series (Owen and Claire), which meant that it could effectively be considered the end to that era of the series. However, both he and producer Frank Marshall have independently confirmed that there are plans to continue the series beyond Dominion, albeit with different human protagonists. | |

The Marvel Cinematic Universe, being an extremely large franchise known for making not-well-known-characters into the stars of multi-million-dollar, blockbuster films, is constantly plagued by this — especially because it makes good clickbait. Nathan Fillion will cameo as Ant-Man in The Avengers! note He didn't, but did cameo as... a blue guy in the first Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) Adam Warlock will be in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2! note He was mentioned, but not shown, in the stinger; something the rumor mills would not have predicted. Phil Coulson will return in Iron Man 3/Captain America: The Winter Soldier/Avengers: Age of Ultron/Ant-Man/Captain America: Civil War! note He didn't, not until Captain Marvel (2019) The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and The Defenders will be in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame/Kevin Feige has said the TV and Netflix characters aren't ever coming to the movies! note Feige never said the latter, and the only television character to appear in either of those films was Edwin Jarvis from Agent Carter. Spider-Man: Far From Home had an out of context Mythology Gag from a trailer that was misconstrued to make it seem like the MCU was changing its Earth 199999 designation to the comic universe's Earth 616 which wasn't true. note Mysterio told Peter in the trailer that he was from 616 but turns out that Beck wasn't even From Another Dimension. He was just a liar. And so on. Likewise, Kevin Feige never declared Marvel Television non-canon; the closest he's come has been bragging that the Disney+ era would see more connection between the plots of the movies and television shows. |

Pulp Fiction: Fanon holds that the person who keyed Vincent's car, which he complains to Lance about, was Butch, having motive (being insulted by Vincent but unable to fight him because of Marsellus). All it takes is a bit of Fridge Logic to disprove this: How would Butch know which car is Vincent's? Further proof is fleetingly provided during Vincent & Lance's discussion: Vincent begins the conversation by saying, "You know what happened the other day?", which given that Vincent and Butch first interacted with each other only that morning, rules Butch out as the doer. Nobody even bothered to ask Quentin Tarantino about that little story detail before it started circulating. The fan theory that the briefcase contains Marsellus Wallace's soul is sometimes misattributed to Tarantino himself. |

L'Osservatore Romano— a perpetual source. Just because the newspaper of Vatican City pans Avatar does not mean that the Pope condemns it. It's just a newspaper; it's not an official statement of dogma by the Church. | |

Rowling never said that she may have subconsciously let the name "Harry Potter" from the Troll series seep into her story, regardless of what Phelous or any number of other people may tell you. What she actually said is that she took the name "Potter" from a family she was friends with as a child, and "Harry" simply because she has always loved that name. | |

One could write a book on all the various non-canon ideas that Star Trek fans routinely believe are canon, but one of the least talked about is a belief among fans that humans of the 24th Century have learned how to "always get along" and never fight with each other. Because of this, they tend to bash Deep Space Nine and Voyager, or even declare them not canon, because of the very concept of the Maquis, and other instances of humans fighting with humans. They cling to this even though The Next Generation never shied away from human-vs-human conflict. What Gene Roddenberry actually said was that humans have learned to rise above "petty bickering", but even he understood that there would always be legitimate issues that would cause conflict between humans. This example has been referenced in mainstream press, especially around the release of Star Trek: Discovery, as factual, and showrunner Aaron Harberts has discussed tossing out the so-called rule as a way of marketing the new show. |

In The Annoying Orange, some viewers thought that Marshmallow's gender was already confirmed to be male due to Marshmallow being referred as he/him in earlier videos despite the Running Gag (both in-universe and out-of-universe) of being asked whether Marshmallow is a boy or a girl without a clear answer multiple times. This was proven wrong in "PRIDE". No, Marshmallow isn't female either! When one of the viewers notified Daneboe and his crew at a live video that Wikipedia stated that Marshmallow is a boy, Daneboe shrugs it off saying that he did not confirm such a thing. |

Frozen: In 2015, director Chris Buck jokingly claimed that he likes to think King Agnarr and Queen Iduna survived their shipwreck, ended up in the jungle and became Tarzan's parents. Many fans took this as canon, even though it's not really consistent with the two films' details (Tarzan's parents look different from the king and queen, they escaped from a burning ship, not just a sunken one, the time periods don't match up, and they already had baby Tarzan with them, whereas Queen Iduna showed no sign of being pregnant when she and the king left on their voyage). Those who spread this statement as proof of that this theory was true also conveniently left out that Buck went on to say that he imagined that the films also take place in the same continuity as Surf's Up, a film from Sony Animation also directed by Buck, demonstrating that it was meant in jest, since it would otherwise probably result in a legal disputes, given that two different studios are involved. In 2019, Buck finally confirmed that his comment was only meant as a joke. This was further supported in Frozen II, where it's revealed that the ship was en route to Ahtohallan, which is in the North Sea and not in Africa, and Agnarr and Iduna were sailing there to find answers to where Elsa got her powers when the ship sank. A persistent belief among some fans, due to an alleged "leak" from an early screening, is that Frozen II originally had a deeply Bittersweet Ending with Elsa Killed Off for Real instead of only suffering a Disney Death, but that the ending was changed after test audiences disapproved. There has been no hint of this whatsoever from either the Walt Disney Company or the movie's creative team. |

Lost: The producers never said that the show would never have time travel. They once said that the then-ongoing Season Two had no time travel — and it didn't — but never that there would never be time travel. Additionally, they never stated that there was one huge clue left in the pilot — in fact, they explicitly said there wasn't, and the last one to be made significant was the single white tennis shoe Jack found. Yet this is repeated to this day. In an example of "Word of Mistaken God," an excellent way to see if someone is making something up about a producer comment is to see if they attribute it to J. J. Abrams, who has had little involvement in the series since season 1, helping to set it up, write and direct the pilot, and contributing to only a very few episodes since (the last being in S3). They also didn't "lie" about the Purgatory theory - The fandom mistakenly believes that they said Purgatory would never be involved in the show, and claim that the fact that the series ended in Purgatory meant that they lied; or else they believe that the characters' explanation that the Flash-Sideways and the church are Purgatory means that the entire series since the crash was Purgatory; neither of which is the case. Only the Flash-Sideways and the church were Purgatory; the time the characters spent on the Island was real and happened before they got back to the outside world and eventually died of the usual causes, with the Flash-Sideways happening once they were dead. |

The Lion King: It's been circulated that someone on the The Lion King II: Simba's Pride team clarified on Facebook that Zira adopted Kovu and that Kovu is an orphan, but no quote exists. This confusion probably exists because of a separate, similar quote: The film's director, Darrell Rooney, has noted on Facebook that Kovu isn't Scar's son (something mentioned in the film itself). It's been repeated in the fandom that Kiara's scrapped twin brother Chaka was engaged to a female cub named either "Timira" or "Kirijah". Despite this, there's never been any source on this info and no one involved on the project seems to remember her. The closest source listed is a "Dan T. Guyton" but no one by that name worked on the film. Producer Don Hahn once made an off-hand statement in an interview that was misconstrued and widely spread through clickbait headlines as a claim that Mufasa and Scar weren't actually brothers, causing an uproar over such a blatant Retcon. What he actually said was that in real life, Mufasa and Scar would not be brothers because of how actual lion prides operate (related male lions drive each other out for control of the pride, and will kill each other's cubs to ensure that only their genetics are spread). This context was dropped when reported on, and director Rob Minkoff had to clarify that Mufasa and Scar are indeed brothers. |

There is a rumor among fans of The Wheel of Time that some notes of Robert Jordan's were uncovered after his death that stated he would have to change Asmodean's killer (Mazrim Taim, who would in turn be revealed as just an alias for the Forsaken Demandred) because too many people had figured it out. This is only partially true; he did initially intend for Taim to be revealed as a disguise for Demandred and in his earliest notes on the subject seem to be suggesting that he killed Asmodean. However, these notes were apparently from a time before he had even published the book in which Asmodean was killed (The Fires of Heaven) or either of the characters Demandred or Taim had been introduced (Lord of Chaos). While he evidently did change his mind about these story and character directions, it doesn't appear to be due to "too many readers figuring it out" as no readers would have had a chance to read those plot elements yet. Also, the fact is that from the time of The Fires of Heaven's publishing, Jordan insisted that readers had already been given all the clues necessary to solve the mystery (and at least one person actually did), so it wouldn't make much sense to suggest that the killer had yet to even be introduced at that point. | |

It's a very common misconception that Spy Kids and Machete take place in the same universe. Except they don't. All that was ever said about the films being connected was Danny Trejo jokingly stating it in one interview, saying that "Machete Cortez in Machete is what Machete Cortez in Spy Kids does when he's not taking care of the kids." Robert Rodriguez shut down this theory by stating in a Reddit AMA that Spy Kids and Machete are separate universes. | |

DC Extended Universe: The franchise is referred to by that name by many people... except by Warner Bros. and DC Comics themselves. It turns out the name was a joke that came from an article written by Keith Staskiewicz for Entertainment Weekly in July 2015. It's only two years later that Abraham Riesman of Vulture learned from DC Films executives that it's not the official name for that shared universe. It didn't prevent some of the people involved like Ezra Miller from referring to it by that name or "DCEU". WB themselves usually use "DC Films" which is the official name of the subsidiary of the studio headed up by Walter Hamada and his team. However, HBO Max refers to it as DC Extended Universe since early 2020, so it became official somewhere. Between November 2017 and May 2020, a number of fans assumed that there was a completed director's cut of Justice League that was ready to be released based on comments by Zack Snyder, while others made more educated guesses that it wasn't one hundred per cent finished.note Snyder left production after completing principal photography when his daughter died. The subsequent movie received multiple reshoots and was re-edited to deviate from his original vision. In actuality, Snyder mentioned that there were multiple cuts but none of them had totally completed VFX and post-production work. When it was finally confirmed in May 2020 that Zack Snyder's Justice League would be released on HBO Max, the release date was slated for 2021 to allow time to complete the effects and other needed post-production work. |

Even on this Wiki there were quotes that, at a convention, one of the writers said Amy and Tekno from Sonic the Comic were a couple. This quote doesn't exist, and Lewis Stringer, one of the writers in question, has actually stated that he wrote Shortfuse and Tekno as a couple, despite never making it explicit in the pages of the comic itself. This confusion wasn't helped when another writer, Nigel Kitching, would write a story for the fan continuation Sonic the Comic – Online!, which heavily implied that Amy and Tekno really did get together after all. | |

Ultimate Spider-Man editor Axel Alonso fell victim to this when, addressing the controversy over the new lead Miles Morales, stated that maybe one day a gay character could even be introduced without it causing an uproar. This caused mass speculation that Miles Morales was going to be both mixed and gay, and that his best friend Ganke was going to be his love interest. This had to be debunked multiple times just because one quote got taken out of context. | |

Tolkien's Legendarium: A common myth is that, as a toddler, J. R. R. Tolkien was bitten by a poisonous spider in South Africa, causing him to develop a phobia about them. Therefore many of his works feature giant, malevolent arachnids, including the spiders of Mirkwood, Shelob, and Ungoliant. However, this article proves the incident was no inspiration whatsoever to the spiders. In fact, Tolkien admitted to having no dislike for spiders at all and even rescued them if they fell into the bath. However his youngest son Michael was afraid of them and Tolkien took inspiration from that when writing The Hobbit. It's common for people to claim that Tolkien made some kind of explicit statement, whether in the books or by Word of God in one of his letters or interviews, to explain why the Fellowship didn't just use the Eagles to fly the Ring into Mordor. In fact, the closest thing he ever said on the subject personally was in a letter regarding a potential film adaptation, where he rejected the idea of the characters using the Eagles to fly to the Misty Mountains—and not for reasons of practicality, but from a perspective of drama (he felt it demystified them, made their nature as a Story-Breaker Power all the more apparent, and made the impact of their big moment in Return of the King far less impressive). Additionally, though there are hints here and there in the books for why the characters can't just use the Eagles this way, no character actually steps up and explains why. Even in a scene where the characters are bringing up and shooting down alternative plans to deal with the Ring (destroying it by some other means, leaving it to the keeping of the apparently-immune Tom Bombadil, throwing it into the sea), nobody suggests the Eagles, despite Gandalf having described his rescue by them only a few minutes earlier. There are certainly lots of reasons why that plan would be likely to fail, but most of them are extrapolated by fans rather than put on the page. |

In anticipation of the release of version 3.0 of NoPixel, rumors began circulating that characters that had been killed off could return in 3.0. However, no public statement about it was ever made by the server administrators, and Koil (the server owner) later stated in a Discord voice chat that dead characters would indeed remain dead in 3.0 (for the time being). | |

Sonic the Hedgehog comics This image made the rounds on Tumblr, purporting to be a Take That! from Archie Comics's Sonic comic at the new character designs in the Sonic Boom cartoon and games. Actually, it was part of a fan-produced comic distributed at a British Fan Convention dedicated to Sonic the Comic - the animal showing Sonic his Boom design is a fan character created by one of the convention's Kickstarter backers, and Sonic's indifference to the Boom design is consistent with his characterization in that comic. When Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) was officially cancelled in 2016, the most common reason cited was as a direct consequence of Ken Penders lawsuit regarding the characters he created for the comic. While it's likely to have at least played a part, no one from Archie has ever cited it as the definitive reason as to why the comic was cancelled. Even on this Wiki there were quotes that, at a convention, one of the writers said Amy and Tekno from Sonic the Comic were a couple. This quote doesn't exist, and Lewis Stringer, one of the writers in question, has actually stated that he wrote Shortfuse and Tekno as a couple, despite never making it explicit in the pages of the comic itself. This confusion wasn't helped when another writer, Nigel Kitching, would write a story for the fan continuation Sonic the Comic – Online!, which heavily implied that Amy and Tekno really did get together after all. Tangle the Lemur from Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW) has never been explicitly confirmed to be a lesbian or in a relationship with Whisper the Wolf. The closest they've come is Evan Stanley saying that her sexuality doesn't matter as fans would love her either way, and Ian Flynn expressing support for the pairing, but noting that Sega prohibited any romantic relationships in the comic, regardless of sexuality. |

Doctor Who: Jenny was originally supposed to die at the end of "Doctor Who S30 E6 "The Doctor's Daughter"", only for Russell T Davies to rewrite the episode so that she survives and goes off to travel the stars. It's often claimed that Steven Moffat requested this, but this is just a rumor, all he said was that Davies had a habit of creating interesting characters then killing them off, and was very surprised when he changed his mind because of it. | |

Many fans of The Twilight Saga have claimed that Stephenie Meyer ruled out vampires being able to have children. Meyer herself claims she only said that female vampires couldn't have children but got misinterpreted. She did, however, say that all fluids in a vampire's body turn to "venom," later redacting this to all fluids except semen. | |

Ancient writers are often victims to this, since there is a lot of time for people to make up quotes. For example, the ancient Christian writer John Chrysostom is quoted as saying this about women; "What else is woman but a foe to friendship, an unescapable punishment, a necessary evil, a natural temptation, a desirable calamity, a domestic danger, a delectable detriment, an evil of nature, painted with fair colours!" Only problem is that this quote doesn't come from any of Chrysostom's writings, but from the Malleus Maleficarum (Part I, Question VI). He cites Chrysostom's comment on Matthew xix (19), but if you check Chrysostom's comment on it (Homily LXII on Matthew), he says nothing of the sort. | |

Happens all too frequently in the Warrior Cats fandom: Often people in the fandom claimed that author Victoria Holmes said that Brambleclaw would not succeed Firestar as ThunderClan leader. In reality, she said that the leader after Firestar "might be unexpected", and noted later that her editor made her change who the leader would be. She is also cited as saying that Ivypool and Bumblestripe would hook up, when she actually told a fan that they could support whatever shipping they wanted to. Vicky is cited as saying that cats can't be named "Moon-" or "-moon" because the moon is too sacred to cats. It's not. Never are the characters shown worshipping the moon and the quote said the exact opposite. The real reason for this decision is that using "moon" as a prefix or suffix makes that cat seem more important or attractive than the other cats in their clan. Even this rule was abolished, with characters like "Ambermoon" being introduced in future books. There are no official "naming traditions". No author has never mentioned it and it has never been stated in-universe. The only names not allowed were the before mentioned "moon" names (which later began being used) and "Hammerclaw" (Tigerclaw's original name before it was noted feral cats don't know what hammers are). |

The press release for No Time to Die announced that the new 007 would be played by Lashana Lynch, a black woman. This led to accusations of Affirmative-Action Legacy and/or outright racism and misogyny from the social media peanut gallery. The studio (as well as people with basic reading comprehension) had to clarify that it didn't say she was becoming James Bond. Rather, Bond had retired from active service at the very end of Spectre, and she was assigned his former agent number. | |

Many, many for Charmed (1998): The most popular rumour was that Prue was only killed off because both Shannen Doherty and Alyssa Milano offered the producers an ultimatum that one of them would have to go. Both actresses have denied this repeatedly over the years, with Shannen Doherty actually saying that she'd wanted to leave the show for a while, and just didn't get "the call" until after Season 3 was over. She maintains that she felt Prue had run her course as a character and was pushing for her to be killed off. Was Chris supposed to be Phoebe and Cole's Kid from the Future until Holly Marie Combs's sudden pregnancy necessitated a rewrite to make him Piper's son? Not only does that theory contradict the show's logic (since he's part whitelighter, Phoebe's literally the only sister he couldn't be descended from, unless his whitelighter powers had been stolen or faked somehow), but executive producer Brad Kern said he was always intended to be Piper's son, and that Holly's pregnancy was "convenient timing". Drew Fuller, who played Chris, admits to not knowing his true role until halfway through the season, which is likely where this rumor started. A rumour was that the Season 7 finale, "Something Wicca This Way Goes?" had two endings filmed depending on whether the show would be renewed for Season 8 or not. Holly Marie Combs refuted this, saying they only had the budget to film one ending. Brad Kern likewise clarifies that the episode was written to potentially serve as a finale in a worst case scenario, but was left deliberately open-ended if they were renewed. The introduction of Billie Jenkins in Season 8 was intended to set up a spin-off and for her to be a new Ms. Fanservice because the three lead actresses refused to wear skimpy clothes anymore? Brad Kern again says that Billie's introduction was mainly the network demanding new faces for Season 8 (along with Agent Murphy, Coop, Henry and Christy), and to allow for the three leads to have a little less screen time. Holly Marie Combs also said that she and the others had no such qualms about wearing the skimpy costumes. |

The Dragonriders of Pern fandom mostly believes in the veracity of Anne McCaffrey's infamous "Tent Peg" interview, in which she states that anal penetration will instantly turn a man gay, by way of explaining how riders of green and blue dragons can all be gay. However there's no actual evidence that it's more than an internet legend. She did, however, espouse similar, if much much milder ideas in her "Renewable Air Force" essay—in which she says green dragons tend to pick males with more feminine personalities and blues tend to pick Straight and Manly Gays. | |

A persistent belief among some fans, due to an alleged "leak" from an early screening, is that Frozen II originally had a deeply Bittersweet Ending with Elsa Killed Off for Real instead of only suffering a Disney Death, but that the ending was changed after test audiences disapproved. There has been no hint of this whatsoever from either the Walt Disney Company or the movie's creative team. | |
