Singh's origins
I would like to designate the ComStar report (i.e. the WD Sourcebook) as canon for the purposes of Singh's origins. I know of no place in the novel where it indicates with any certainty that Singh was from the Clans. It was always implied in the sourcebook that he was an inner sphere recruit. Thoughts? ClanWolverine101
- Canonically, the report is (canonically) just that: a report. Not a hard fact. The canonical truth about Singh is that there is a potentially erroneous ComStar report assuming he was recruited in the IS, and a lot of evidence (yet no proof) that he was in fact a Clanner; ComStar could not possibly have known the evidence or how to interpret it as the Clans were not yet known in the IS. And that is how BTW should depict the situation. As per our Policy:Canon, we do not seek to decide which is correct - use facts, not opinion, for the article. Frabby 09:53, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
