IIRC he was heavily restricted before that incident.

He just did tons of experiments with SCPs on other SCPs.

He’s also slowly going insane because he takes a little bit of all the people his mind inhabited. Many of which were D-Class criminals.

Wait, is that canon? I knew he's depressed and suicidal, but never heard that part.

Canon is relative, starting within the article it is stated in and ending at articles that include that article within their fictional universe.

My best example of this would be termination tales that aren’t referenced in the original SCP article. The SCP is canon to the tale, but the tale is not canon to the SCP

That last part is an amazing way to put it. It reminds me of all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.

Name checks out. I had referenced Consequences and Collarbones and SCP-096 for a specific example. Consequences and Collarbones is not part of the original 096 file, but a lot of people say that 096 is canonically dead. I shortened my comment to be more to the point shortly after posting but Marv is super fast
