See How to Create a Work's Page.

You also want to see Auto-Erotic Troping and The Fic May Be Yours, but the Trope Page Is Ours- as the writer, you're limited as to what you can add to the work's page.

How to Create a Work's Page.

If it's not published yet, you have to follow the Unpublished Works guidelines (laconically: until it gets published anywhere, you can only have the main work page in the DarthWiki/ namespace and you can't link it anywhere).

Also, since you're troping your own work, you have to make sure not to fall into Auto-Erotic Troping.

And yeah, The Fic May Be Yours, but the Trope Page Is Ours — if you later decide you actually don't want the wiki page, too bad, it's up and it can't be deleted.

Because I personally would not want to create a page for my own work, which I have already published. I was hoping that someone would read my work and create it. But so far...

If you want to get someone else to make a page for your work... well, ATT isn't the place to ask for that, but your author's notes might be.

That said, this is a wiki. Pages get made because someone wants to make them.

Though there is the List of Shows That Need Summary.
