I'm not sure about this but I don't really believe Kubo was writing story scripts for the filler arcs thus making them non-canon in the way Novels would be according to your point of view. They're not canon, we specifically make note in the summaries for those arcs on the character pages that the information comes from a non-canon source. However, we list it there because 1. many people get into the series through the anime and 2. those arcs are presented between canon arcs in the anime, so it allows for that sort of presentation. If you're referring to instances of citing filler arcs in the personality/P&A sections, we do that only for stuff already backed up/not contradicted by the manga for the aforementioned reasons.

This way information from the Novel could be added without disturbing the main article because all novel based information would appear in a separate sub page and only there just like image gallery pages. I've seen other wikis using this as a compromise to keep all non-canon stuff/stuff not originating from the original source out from the main article but still have such information included on the character page as a sub page just labeled as 'non-canon'. I think this could help to calm people who are arguing with the canon policy you guys are holding onto without giving your own rules. Give it a thought at least you can still dismiss this idea if it's not suiting your policy. This is something I've suggested and I'm personally for it, but as an overall "Appearances in Other Media" section like we have for Ichigo.
