In section Fandom, the Forums (Fruity Rumpus Asshole Factory), which is a fan collective and used for the Suggestions for a new (Beyond Canon) character's actions, like it was seen with Problem Sleuth, is not mentioned. Given how it is officially used, I think it should be mentioned.

In section Video Games, only Hiveswap is mentioned, but not:

Hauntswitch (Hiveswap but from perspective of the troll that Joey swapped places with, Dammek, stuck in the town that the game is named after. Takes place simultaneously with Hiveswap.)

Hiveswap Friendsim, a dubiously canon dating-sim style game, but with platonic relationships, plus/minus a few things, where the player befriends Hiveswap trolls. Ends with Doc Scratch making the player read Homestuck.

Pesterquest, which is a Friendsim sequel (takes place after Friendsim ends, starts with the player having finished reading the Epilogues, seeing Doc Scratch be attacked by Jack Noir (as seen in the regular comic(banner at the top), running and obtaining the retcon powers John obtains in the story), and somehow canon to Beyond Canon, with characters from the original comic (The beta kids (John, Rose, Dave, Jade), the trolls they interact with (Karkat, Kanaya, Gamzee, Vriska, Equius, Terezi, Tavros, Aradia, Nepeta, Sollux, Eridan, Feferi), and the alpha kids (Jane, Jake, Roxy, Dirk).

Given how each of these is in some way canon, they should be added as well.

Not done Wikipedia requires that content have supporting reliables sources. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:29, 23 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Isn't this mostly for new articles, not for sections in articles?

No, verifiability and reliable sources policies apply to all edits. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 20:57, 23 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
