The term "canon" refers to the collection of text that are considered authoritative by a religion or culture. These usually take the form of scripture, but it can also refer to literary canons, or 18th century armaments.
In an age of information overload, the concept of canon is being lost. Very few people have consumed the same shows, read the same books, and can refer to these and expect to be understood. This is having a debilitating effect on communications.
Establishing a new universal canon of the future is a necessary step in creating the universal in-group, and a primary goal of the metaculture wiki.
