 | This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
 | This page in a nutshell: Articles on a work of fiction or fictional element should demonstrate real-world notability from reliable sources. If a fiction-related subject is notable, it will always be possible to include more in an article than plot summaries, in-universe information, and references from popular culture. |
- For articles about books and films, rather than fictional elements therein, refer to Wikipedia:Notability (books) and Wikipedia:Notability (films).
- For information about writing articles on fiction, refer to Manual of Style (Writing about fiction).
Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) covers the notability of characters, items, places, and other elements (including individual episodes of serialized works such as television or comic book series) in a work of fiction.
