New Question: Character Revisionism
Authors can sometimes claim things about their characters with no support in their work after-the-fact. For example, J.K. Rowling claims Dumbledore is gay, even with no evidence of it in her works. Should these revisions of characters be considered canon? Why or why not? And why do you think they do this?
