@Kyvos: I agree. This is an encyclopedia site first. Sure we post reviews, speculation, or general discussion, but these things are all based on the show and not any fan-made material. If you're going to allow something as vauge as "general discussion" then music isn't THAT far away. It's odd that you would allow any speculation on a Wiki cite if you're so determined to make this an enciclopedia first, but that's more grammar picking than anything. I know you likely think that general discussion is to be all about RWBY.

When I said general discussion, I meant general discussion about the series. As far as speculation, it was actually decided recently that the large speculation sections of articles should be removed and there is a forum topic for set up specifically for speculation (I also never approved of the speculation on pages to start with). However just having a forum section labeled Off-Topic would imply that other areas of the site are considered On-Topic, including blogs unless specifically mentioned otherwise in the site policy (which hopefully the admins are working on). You might say that going by this that would extend to User Pages and our message walls, but the Policy section of the site has a link to Community Central's policy that does talk about user pages. However Community Central does not have anything official for blogs, as that is normally up to the wiki itself to sort out.
