	'''Fanon''' is a portmanteau word formed from the words "[[fandom\|fan]]" and "[[canon]]". It refers to so-called "facts" that a significant number of fans think are true, but for which there is no evidence in any official material. A piece of fanon usually becomes widespread due to having been discussed and picked up by other fans. Some fanon is based on misinterpretations of canon (especially when translations from Japanese material are involved) and some is simply stuff fans made up. While fanon originates with fans rather than the official canon of the ''Transformers'' [[Continuity\|multiverse]], it sometimes becomes [[Canonizing\|incorporated into the canon]] via [[retcon]] or other means if a writer decides to establish the fans' interpretation in official fiction. Sometimes, this can also happen because an official writer mistakes fanon for established canon.		'''Fanon''' is a portmanteau word formed from the words "[[fandom\|fan]]" and "[[canon]]".
