#absolutely *nothing* in Hartman's bullshit '10 years later' thing is even remotely hinted at in canon

So the wiki also includes shit from Hartman's like youtube channel and whatnot. I don't consider anything not explicitly stated within the show to be canon (and even some things in the show *side eyes Phantom Planet*), so I'm just ignoring all that shit.
Also the insane amount of typos and grammatical weirdness in the Danny Phantom Wiki do not exactly instill confidence in the legitimacy of the information provided.
Anyway, this is just a roundabout way for me to say that I don't consider anything off Hartman's youtube channel, or out of those comics that I've literally only been able to find one of in it's entirety, to be canon.
And Danny Phantom is not exclusive to this belief; if it's pertinent to the plot but you don't put it within the main canon media (so the book/show/movie/game/whatever) then it's not actually canon and you're just a bad writer. Word of God is not canon; if "God" wanted me to know a certain canon fact, then "God" should have put it in the canon.
I should not have to scour your youtube channel or twitter account to understand what the fuck is going on in your story; the story should provide me with that information. The only things that should be exclusive to an external account are shit that's interesting to know but doesn't/wouldn't impact the plot or characters in any tangible way.
