As the title says, what non-canon material would you look to see as canon?

I'd say the Titan Series, and the Mirror Universe Novel series [http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Star_Trek:_Mirror_Universe]

And a lot of the DS9 novels that come after Unity. [http://memory-beta.wikia.com/wiki/Unity_(novel)]

Calvin grows up to be Frazz. The logical continuation of this is, of course, that Frazz then grows up to be Edward Norton's character from Fight Club. And thus, all four of these characters are gods.Let's go one more step. Calvin grows up to be Jeremy, who grows up to be Frazz, who grows up to be "Tyler Durden," while Suzie grows up to be Haruhi Suzumiya; since Kyon becomes The Doctor, this leads to the inescapable conclusion that after the end of Fight Club, Calvin becomes Captain Jack.

I always thought Deep Space Nine: Millenium would make an awesome series of films.

Hmm, I would have to agree to that.

All of the re-launch books through the Destiny trilogy.  I know that includes the below-sub-par Before Dishonor, but it leads into the following stuff...

Also, I don't know if it is considered canon or not yet, but Star Trek: Countdown.  It kinda cheapens Data's sacrifice to have him brought back, but then again, he had every reason to believe it didn't work, so I guess it works out.  Plus, it really seems to fit with both the crappy timeline that STO is putting up and the new movie.

the people behind the movie consider the comic canon, and events from it are going to be mentioned/shown in th movie I.E Romulus's destruction the the trailer. they also said they would be referencing some novels, (making those events canon) they haven't said what ones though.

that was sorta ontopic.

I say add in all but the most contradictory materials. Comics, books, etc. And somebody toss DJ a royalty check so we can see his ships on film!

'ENTERPRISE' ships!

Oh wait, no I wouldn't.  cheeky

Seriously, though.  I might like to see the Romulan-Earth War ships and arc made fully canon.  I think it would provide some interesting backstory to the current Romulan/Federation relationship.

Wee!  Thread bombs!

the st excalibur series. Good characters, and calhoon could out kirk kirk. He's always thumbing his nose at some admiral and the books are often as funny as they are interesting.

Ships: Anarions chruchill. The premonition.

The USS Premonition from Armada? We have a model of it but I would like a better one. The conversion models just don't cut it anymore.

To bad Star Trek isn't more like Star Wars where a lot of fans accept certain novels as Canon.

Maybe because Star Wars has less source material to go on for their universe?

Paramount has not kept the control over the Trek novels that Lucas keeps over the SW books. Therefore many, MANY contradictions. They COULD have the authors go through their old books and tweak the little details that cause minor problems. Lucas did that with all of the SW books few years back.

I'd like to see the A Time To series brought to Cannon...it would DEFINITELY explain Wesley's presence at the wedding grin (a better one IMHO than the deleted scenes).  The only thing I'd cut out is the part where Janeway states that she dated Riker at the Academy...totally didn't think of "Death Wish" there cheeky

That and the Titan Series...so we can stop this debate over the asthetic properties of the ship...sheesh.

The Titan series.  The relaunches of the 24th century series, minus the whole "Destiny" arc.  Aaaannnnd...that's about it for me.

actually Paramount has a liaison at pocket books who's job is to keep track of the details in every trek book they publish.
