The events that we have not seen in the show do not need to be forced down anybody's throats. The events happened mostly like the ones in the movies, great. That does not make them parts of the show.

So yeah, the movies are NOT part of the show, but they shed light into what happened before we met the characters on the show. This, however, is a Once Upon a Time wiki, and whatever happens outside the Once Upon a Time franchise should not be taken in the same degree of relevance as stuff that actually does happen within the franchise.

In other words, I think articles are fine as they are. We do not need to add any history that does not come from the show, its novels, comics or spinoff. Well, we could do that, but it seems kind of dumb, as Adam and Eddy have achknowledged the fact that the events from Frozen and Brave are canon to the characters, and thus are their backstories, which is why they are never shown on the show. By contrast, all the other characters backstories can vary (and often do) from the traditional and/or Disney versions. I agree with Kilian. It's best not to talk about it. A & E say that but then we have some obvious contradictions and we can't take their words any farther than we can throw them.

So far, Brave is deviating less than Frozen, but nevertheless we should not use it as fact. So not mentioning that fact will do no harm and works using the in-show as the greatest canon unless reasons otherwise.
