Forum:Fanon for other player's works

Recently, a user has created several fanon pages for Sims/families that the page creator themself did not create. To my knowledge, The Sims Wiki has no rule against this, and I cannot recall a specific time that we've discussed this issue in the past, though I feel as though it has been discussed before. In any case, a couple users on the wiki have, on Discord, raised the question of whether fanon authors ought to be able to create fanon pages about characters they did not create (except for Maxis-created Sims/families that the player chooses to play with). Since this is an open-ended question, and the decision could ultimately affect some fanon pages currently in existence, I felt it was worth discussing.

So, should The Sims Wiki allow or disallow editors to create works of fanon based on Sims, families or characters that they themselves did not create (excluding Maxis-made creations)? --  LostInRiverview talk · blog  ·  contribs 19:38, April 28, 2018 (UTC)
