So I've created a page for a book series I like (I checked, it didn't have a page already so I made one) and I'd like to add a funny section to it but I don't know how. Might you be able to help me? Of course. Because that's why you're checking out this thread.

Use the usual Namespace.Pagename format, so in this case, it would be Funny.insert name of whatever work you want to make a funny page for

So there aren't any rules against adding in the Funny (or Awesome, or Ter Jerker etc.) to the work? Cause I genuinely don't know.

Anyone can create moments pages at any time, except for creators of the work the pages are based on, since they're Audience Reactions.

I think what they mean, and what I mean is how do we add pages like Awesome, Funny, Tearjerker, Nightmare Fuel to a works page, I just started a page for a MCU fic and wanted to add Funny, but in the drop down menu for 'create new' doesn't include it.

To answer the poster above me, when I made new pages (and bumbled around trying to get them to link correctly) such as Moments subpages, what I'd do is go to the YMMV page, type in the [[Moment/Work]] link required to cause a page to show up, pull up a preview, see if my link was coherent and didn't accidentally link to the main workpage of the trope, and then added examples once I confirmed that it was the case.

There's probably an easier way to go about adding Moments pages, but the drop-down for adding pages always felt a bit too small for me, and I found that the method I used could help clean up YMMV pages who had really long, bloated entries.

So I tried to do what the above post says but it still comes out as an “inexact title”. I’m using the [[moment/work]] but am I missing a step?

You're doing it right. There should be an edit button on the page too.
