I don't see how canon fails to be relevant outside a vs debate. It still helps to have an agreed upon standard of what evidence is legitimate, surely?

Pretty much sums it up. I can't find the link to where it is on the Star Trek website, but I'm content enough with this.

That would be why I said 'mostly in versus cases'. It would indeed still be handy to have an agreed policy for PST discussion.

Anything Gene voted canon prior to his death, then Paramount afterwards. In the event of a conflict, Paramount's say trumps Gene's because they financed it.
