- Administrivia.Creator Page Guidelines
- Administrivia.Namespace
- Creator/ (A catch-all for actors, writers, directors, artists, networks, studios, distributors, companies, videogame publishers and developers, etc. Works pages for musicians or musical groups should be in Music/; Wrestlers' personas go under Wrestling/; Let's Players go under LetsPlay/. Also, it is only pages under this namespace that should be marked as a Creator-type page. Everything else — including Music/, Wrestling/, and LetsPlay/ — should be marked as Work-type pages.)"
- WebAnimation/ (no text)
- WebVideo/ (Covers both YouTube videos and web-exclusive series, except for those that go in the LetsPlay/ namespace. For big-budget series exclusive to streaming services such as Netflix, use Series/ or the appropriate animation namespace instead.)"
- Administrivia.What Page Types Mean and Page Type Per Namespace (some are marked Work when they're about a Creator— simpler than namespace move? Any real change?) Web Video pagetypes:

Web Video index migration
Everything below was on the Web Video index, but has something incorrect— does not belong on this index, needs a namespace change, needs a rewrite to focus on the works instead of the creators, or otherwise needs another look.

Was incorrectly indexed only on Web Video and needs a home
Namespace is okay, but as currently written, these belong on other indexes but were indexed only on Web Video. They aren't original live action and/or narrative works. Need other indexing ex. creator indexes or a video subcategory index (often Let's Play). Some also need a rewrite to focus on the videos instead of their creators if they're going to return to Web Video.
Needs new indexes

And the lyrics to the theme tune are altered." (no index)
