I like to look at Where Are You - Scooby and Scrappy Doo, New Scooby and Scrappy Show - 13 Ghosts and A Pup - What's New as different universes. Scooby and Scrappy Doo (Shorts), the 80s DTVs, the live action movies, Get a Clue and Mystery Incorperated are their own or not canon. The current DTVs are extended episodes of Whats New. Velma being afraid of clowns in Whats New, but not Where Are You kind of supports this. I get what you're saying, and that's why the original Mystery Inc. members have their own page for their history, which is in sections based on eras. Some errors are down to different writers, that can't be helped.

Some fans looking at Shaggy and Daphne as a couple in the mid 80s series is similar to how some people look at Bert and Ernie from Sesame Street and SpongeBob and Sandy from SpongeBob SquarePants and both those wikis have imformation about that. If they want to speculate then that's their choice, but I'm not going to start something that doesn't have any real basis beyond what a few people think. I've already had a debate on what Fred's full name should be considered and I'm not going to start a debate about a non-existent relationship. If you can get credible prove that it's legitimately recognized (like Fred and Daphe) then I'll add something on them, until then it just stays within the fanbase.
