Do fan web videos go under Fan Works, Web Original, or both?

Specifically, I'm talking about a Youtube series where the creator does a dramatic reading of her old Sonic sprite comics. I'm trying to create more entries in tropes, as this creator has next to no entries on this wiki. But I keep getting confused on pages that mention both Fan Works and Web Original.

So, my question is, where does this creator go?

(This is my first post on these forums, feel free to correct me if this is question was already answered.)

Fan Works as a namespace isn't for work articles but rather to list fan works derived from an original work (or another fan work). Similarly, Web Original is a deprecated namespace intended only for content that cannot be placed in a more specific category.

As the series you are discussing is on YouTube, the appropriate namespace would be Web Video. (Fan Fic is only for written works.) The media category to use when crosswicking trope examples would be Web Original (I think).
