DE, that only means that Canon and Fanon's relationship is parasytical, only without any real harm done to us.

We in Canon organize and theorize regarding the show's info, in and out of universe. Without that info, Fanon wouldn't even be able to make their rules, or even good OCs. It wouldn't be able to work correctly.

On the other hand, we don't need Fanon at all. RWBY OCs and Role-Playing? There are many other sites where one can do that with no problem. But all of it does not affect us at Canon at all. Our job is to organize the information of RWBY, just like every other wiki out there. Fans doing something with that information, not related to it's Canon, it's completely secondary.
