Tip of the day

Fansites, forums, & other web page articles

When creating articles on forums, fansites, or other webpages, remember that Wikipedia has two notability requirements for these types of articles. These requirements are:

  1. The content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself
  2. The website or content has won a well known and independent award

While a particular website need not meet both of these requirements, it should meet at least one of them.
