COI Edit Request

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hello, i apologize a lot of this sudden message. I wish to speak about something that i think could be done for the Analog Horror article: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B6FBHCCY i have published my first novella/short story. It genre is based on Analog Horror and i wish to ask if it can be included as a reference. Does it count as AH if it is written? one of my aims, was to make perhaps one of the very first AH stories on text. I am really sorry if this seems like blatant self-promotion, it is my very first published work and i wish to know if it is allowed to be mentioned on the article. I am not one of Wikipedia staff btw, but i felt i needed to contact people in the simplest way, so again, i hope this is allowed. apologies if i signed this wrong. Also wanted to say, am not doing the editing myself, but if someone can review if it should my story is worthy of being included in the article. I apologize profoundly for the conflict of interest. 200.8.15.187 (talk) 18:41, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: It's unlikely your story meets the Notability standards for inclusion. If you have a source showing otherwise, it should be included with the edit request. WelpThatWorked (talk) 15:45, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of the Monument Mythos

The Monument Mythos is very underrated, can I put it there? I have the references to do it. 14.0.240.6 (talk) 09:29, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Add

Ch/ss is an original analog horror classic, I think it should be added 12.228.251.22 (talk) 21:49, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I do think CH/SS is notable enough, even if just for its significance in the genre. Hazeledla (talk) 01:24, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On adding examples to this page

Please make sure that if you are to add an example of analog horror that it is at least semi-popular. Posting a series that is on a YouTube channel with only 500 subscribers or double-digit view counts will not qualify. Also, please take care as to not overrun this page with examples. Thank you. Hazeledla (talk) 01:37, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder how many examples is too many. In my opinion, the main genre page should contain enough examples to give the reader an idea of the relevant media, without being overrun. As it stands, around 65% (estimate) of this article is examples.

Perhaps "List of analog horror series" needs to be a separate page? This would allow for coverage of series that are widely known within the community, but still relatively unknown to the wider population (such as the Tangi Virus series). Couruu (talk) 12:46, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Adding to this - I think any examples added to this pages should have at least one reference to an independent, generally reliable source, as per general Wikipedia guidelines. This avoids us using popularity as a metric, which is far more of a slippery/hard to define concept. ForsythiaJo (talk) 03:27, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe there should be a second article that lists notable analog horror works. That way, the article won't become unnecessarily lengthy. —theMainLogan (t•c) 20:44, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No Angel Hare?

Angel Hare has been viral, with documentations and fanart. Angel Hare is an old, fictional Christian show to teach religious lessons. In this series we follow a guy named Jonah who finds tapes of his favorite cartoon from when he was younger. But when he watches his personal recordings of these tapes he finds out that the cartoon may have been SPEAKING to him? He remembers none of this and the deeper he dives into this mystery, the weirder and creepier things become. 104.220.66.87 (talk) 18:04, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,

Items on Wikipedia aren't added based on YouTube views or how many pieces of fan art are made, but on whether they have been covered by independent and reliable sources (see Wikipedia:Reliable sources). I.e., in news stories, studies, non-fiction books, etc. You'll notice that the other entires on this page all cite at least one article that fulfills these criteria. If and when Angel Hare receives this kind of coverage, it can be added to the page. ForsythiaJo (talk) 18:52, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I too tried to find legit sources for Angel Hare, my favorite analog horror series. Espngeek (talk) 20:36, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You should add thalasin

Thalasin is an analog horror video made by Gooseworx on February 6, 2021. The video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Td2x8s9GZlo 24.115.255.37 (talk) 21:20, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See above section on Angel Hare. New examples shouldn’t be added unless independent and reliable sources have covered the series. ForsythiaJo (talk) 23:11, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ok 24.115.255.37 (talk) 02:37, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Legit or not?

The Boiled One Phenomenon is a YouTube series created by Silas Orion, network name Doctor Nowhere, 17 years old,^[1]^[2] its content revolves around a video called "Broadcast-228" in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where many people have suffered from strange syndrome after watching that episode, PHEN-228, the monster that caused that phenomenon, a company called NERC was directed by Ephrata Branch to cut off all power in the region of Northeastern United States on August 14, 2003 and even spread to Canada to halt the progression of PHEN-228.^[1] Espngeek (talk) 16:26, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TV Tropes is not a reliable source, and it’s unclear whether Trakt is reliable or independent. I don’t think the entry should be added unless there is coverage similar to that for other sections on the page. ForsythiaJo (talk) 16:39, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
