How about this?

• P-Canon: Primary canon, consisting of works written by George R.R. Martin, excluding his TV show scripts which are written to the TV show canon as established by the showrunners.

• S-Canon: Secondary canon, consisting of information verified as having been given by George R.R. Martin outside of the published works. This includes information given to officially licensed third parties, such as the television show and roleplaying games, and information given through correspondence with fans, readings and signings, statements in interviews, etc. Please note the "verified" qualifier -- origin with Martin must be an established fact, not simply assumed, and must clearly refer to his series as opposed to the canon of any derivative works. If two pieces of secondary canon appear to contradict each other, it should generally be assumed that the most recently given information is correct.

For me it seems like the best way to put it. Though I'm not entirely sure what everyone else thinks about it.

Also, thanks for the explanation, very helpful.
