This category seems hard to deal with to me. I'm not convinced it's important to distinguish fan art that doesn't contradict what's in the game, or among that, what's popular (which is also relative, as it depends on what part of the community is considered and at what moment). Are there any notable examples of what constitutes "fanon" in relation to the Doom games? I'd be wary of "canon" and "official" too, and instead concentrate in what is or isn't in the games or related materials, where it shows up, and who made it .

Delete. I agree that distinguishing such fan art is not relevant. Also, there isn't much, if any, fan art of this type around in the Doom scene, which is another reason why I think this category should be deleted. -- Janizdreg 20:41, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
