Canon...till it folds back on itself and makes no sense at all, in any way. Fanon sometimes, tho extreme examples set my teeth on edge unless they are crack. Crack is awesome good fun!
Harry/Ginny as a pairing in HP has never made sense to me, no matter how I peer and poke at it. Tho' to each his own (there's lots of ships; have one!) I tend to go back to canon after indulging in fanon and re-read to set my tracks back to 'zero'. It helps me keep perspective.
