Hey. If I wanted to make a page for a fake TV show or movie, where would I do it in?

hmmm, it doesn't exist so why would you be putting in here? What are you trying to achieve?

You still haven't answered my question about whether it's a Show Within a Show or not...

But soft! What rock through yonder window breaks? It is a brick! And Juliet is out cold.

I don't know the answer to your question and will flag a mod who may have a better idea.

We don't really have a place for shows that don't exist, unless it's a Show Within a Show for a work that does exist. If you just want to make a page for giggles, put it on your contributors's page.

To answer Black Wolfe's question... it's not a Show Within a Show. It's something made up by tropers just for the hell of it.

We have that already.

Say, is that 'unpublished works' thing on Darth Wiki still around? Could it go there, maybe?

Why won't you identify it? Why are you asking for hypothetical answers, when if you identify you could get a solid answer?

Well, I found a website that showcased closing logos/vanity plates made up by members:

http://dreamlogos.wetpaint.com/

I was just wondering if there were a section similar to this website where we could showcase TV shows/films/games/etc. made up by Tropers.

Not on the wiki, but you could start a Forum Games thread for it.

[up]It'll take a little bit, but it sounds right up our alley over there.

If there's some sort of website discussing the fictional show, then you can make an article about that.

For example, see Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Special Edition, which is a real Let's Play video series about a fictional game; since the entire thing is a Stealth Parody, our article continues the joke and acts as if Sonic 2 Special Edition were real.

*reads the "manual sample"* It's... not very stealthy for a Stealth Parody.

Maybe someone could make a page in the Just for Fun section of the site, so that people can make their own pages about shows and films that they made up?

We don't publish people's work on the wiki and where would the line between that and made up shows be drawn? Imagined vs imaginary?

We have a page for Dr Brinner Ghost Psychiatrist, which also doesn't exist except through Memetic Mutation.

We have Candle Cove as a TV show, which is actually a short story, which you can find by going to its Darth Wiki page.

There's also Wizbits, which has been here forever and isn't any more real now than it was three years ago.

After making all this commotion, I just said "Fuck it," and made a thread in the Forum Games section.

The first few videos aren't so blatant; I imagine the manual page was added after several videos had already been uploaded.
