This wiki is nominally about To the Stars.
That said, TtS already has several spinoff fanworks, which might benefit from being included here. I've decided to allow that, under the following conditions:
- The authors of the spinoff must give permission before it can be included here. Preferably, I'd like it if the authors give permission for the "permissive license to Hieronym" to apply to such articles, so that we're not muddying the waters with different licenses or non-consenting rightsholders who aren't Magica Quartet, but that's not an absolute requirement. (Even though the license is by default granted, it's highly unlikely that it'd ever be utilized in the case of deliberately noncanon articles.)
- All articles about spinoff materials must include the {{Spinoff}} template at the top, to indicate their status as such and to prevent confusion with canon material. Spinoffs which have been certified PC by Hieronym can use the {{Compliant Spinoff}} template instead.
