User blog comment:Genetic Freak/JP: The Game is NOT canon./@comment-17754282-20141124232212

To be honest I do kind of agree that the game isn't a part of the movie canon as I feel that there are just too many differences, from the Mososaur aquarium to the different characters.

Personally I feel that there needs to be three levels of canon on this wikia - what is canon for the books, what is canon for the films and what is canon from the game. If not then this just leads to confusion and arguments.

A good example I would give of this is the Harry Potter wikia, which establishes the three layers of canon mentioned above. While all three mediums essentially tell the same story, they all do it in slightly different ways with scenes ommitted and extra stuff added in. Trying to mix the three layers of canon into one block doesn't work over there and from the looks of it isn't working here - hence the arguments.

That isn't to say that the site is perfect - in fact, if you want a good look at the chaos that ensures from trying to mix the separate canons together, I suggest you look no further than the talk page for the article for the character of Lavender Brown. The books never confirm whether or not she dies at the Battle of Hogwarts, the films heavily imply that she dies, a tie-in book confirms that she died, and the game has its own version. The argument regarding whether or not she is dead raged from the moment Deathly Hallows Part 2 hit the screens in July 2011 up until the present day, with the staff of the wikia determinedly stating that she is dead in all canons while just about everyone else seems to think that she should only be considered dead in the film canon.

That is how long these arguments can go on for and unless steps are taken are to fully acknowledge the separate canons of the game and the film then I fear that this wikia too will see this argument regarding the canonicity of JP: The Game get brought up again and again, much like the never ending debate on how the Tyrannosaurus vs Spinosaurus fight in JP3 should have gone.

Well, that's my opinion, anyway.
