Speculation is not permitted in [[wp:|Wikipedia]] articles, to maintain pure fact. However, Grand Theft Wiki recognises that many things are worth discussing, even without them being fully confirmed. However, it is insisted that for all published speculation, there is basis in fact. All speculation on Grand Theft Wiki must be clearly marked, usually with {{template|speculation}}. | Speculation is not permitted in [[wp:|Wikipedia]] articles, to maintain pure fact.

For example, before the release of details about [[GTA IV]], the GTA IV article contained various items of widely-reported or broadly-discussed information that had not been confirmed by Rockstar. This includes possible titles, locations, settings, characters, separation from the [[GTA III Era]] and other features. However, the speculation was based on the fact that it had been announced. This is why there is currently no [[GTA V]] page, as there is nothing to suggest it has been announced. | For example, before the release of details about [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]], the GTA IV article contained various items of widely-reported or broadly-discussed information that had not been confirmed by Rockstar.

A conflicting page is the [[GTA V Wishlist]], which exists even without an announcement of GTA V. This is because there has been lots of ''discussion'' about GTA V, which is what we are expressing in that article. It is a fact that many people '''want''' a return to [[Vice City]] (for example), but it would be wrong to suggest that GTA V is going to be set there. | A conflicting page is the [[GTA V Wishlist]], which exists even without an announcement of GTA V.
