The establishing of canon is an example of giving a description from an in-universe perspective. Problems associated with an in-universe perspective include:

  • Articles about fiction should be written from the perspective of the audience describing the fictional material and not from the perspective of a character or narrator in the fictional universe. The establishing of canon is an example of giving a description from an in-universe perspective. Problems associated with an in-universe perspective include: * A fictional character article or section written as if it were a biography. * Using past tense when discussing the plot or any of its elements. * Trying to reconcile contradictions or fill gaps in a fictional continuity, rather than reporting them as such. * Disregarding all or most aspects of a work of fiction as a creative endeavor. * A plot synopsis written like a historical account. * Description of fictional places written like a geographical account. * Discussing a fictional topic's appearances in major works and obscure spin-off material in equal detail. * Placing spiritual successors in the same continuity as the works that inspired them. * Using throwaway comments or jokes as a source of information. * Using image captions for film stills and screenshots asserting that what is depicted is the character, rather than a film scene depicting the character. * Ordering works by their fictional chronology, rather than the actual order they were published.
