Now that it's been officially confirmed that Rowan of Rin is a part of the same world as Deltora Quest and Three Doors, should we at least consider adding it to the wiki? I'm only asking because they are all a part of the same story-universe and it just seems weird to me (or rather just surprising), that there's DQ, Three Doors and (will be) Star of Deltora articles on here but there are no articles about Rowan of Rin because Rowan of Rin isn't as obviously linked to DQ as Three Doors and Star of Deltora. They are all technically within the same story-world, so why add in some series but not add in another?

I've really started noticing something like this on fanfiction.net, where there are separate archives for each of Rodda's DQ-universe series. Really, I don't think there's much point in that, since they are all basically the same canon, and I've thought that it would better if they were all combined into one archive, or just some way that makes it easier for writers to write about characters from all of the series without having to label their fics as crossovers. That's just been bugging me, since there are already one or two fics which include things from more than one of the series (or more accurately link them all together into an entire world) and it makes me wonder exactly where the line is drawn between a cross-over and a regular fic. Because now that we have Three Doors, DQ, Rowan of Rin and soon will have Star of Deltora, I think that there will be more fics written that will link these series together. Especially about Star of Deltora. I can imagine that people will soon be writing about Britta sailing to Rin or Zebak or Dorne and interacting with the characters there. It wouldn't be as hard to realistically imagine her doing that sort of thing, since she's apparently a trader's daughter and seems to sail her own ship. But, it's nothing anyone can really change at the moment, so. :/

I'll stand by whatever the admins or anyone else decides about this. I just thought that I should bring this up now. The trader cards have confirmed that Rin is located in the same world as DQ and Three Doors, so as far as I see there isn't any reason (aside from there maybe being other wiki projects here in the works that result in there being less time for adding new articles for an entire series, especially with Star of Deltora coming out so soon) for Rowan of Rin not to be included here.
