Bumping this in the hope that it will get seen.

Wild Mass Guessing is the page for posting crazy speculations.

Epileptic Trees is the trope that covers them.

Thanks, but that doesn't really answer whether or not the Kingdom Hearts X page is using Epileptic Trees properly.

Gonna try bumping this one last time in the hopes of getting an answer.

I'd say: Change that to Mind Screw as it's not about the content of the theories but the confusion that led to the out-there theories. Also 'cause it mentions MS at its very beginning.

Could take it to Is This An Example thread in Trope Talk, if needed??

I'd assume that Epileptic Trees should only be listed on YMMV if there's common theories that are really out there?

It'd catch WMG entries if the WMG page is found to be too short? Not sure if that's ever happened, though.

YMMV is to note the feelings of the fandom. Epileptic Trees doesn't do that?

In general, Epileptic Trees is for widely-known examples of "wacko" theories — ones the fandom has kind of embraced. The WMG page is for people to post their own personal ones.
