@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.

However, I think there's another problem with this Wiki, one that this seems to touch on.

I don't think this community is very tolerant (not refering to my post, I took that down for other reasons) when it comes to things both in and out of RWBY. There seems to be a very lemming like mentallity when an unpopular opinion, subject matter, and/or 'advertisement' of fan made materials is stated. I didn't see the blog post, but I'm 99% sure it would have been welcomed if the blogger agreed with the popular opinion on music here.

I don't get the hostility towards FAN MADE works that PROMOTE the series, but this is off-topic.

This is my very ignorent perspective on the matter, so feel free to lash me if anything I've typed has been already proven to be utterly inaccurate or wrong.
