::Exactly. (Clarification to my prior comment, a fictional reference work is perhaps better understood as describing "{{Elx|link url=https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/facts/|link name=the furniture of the world}}" than just events that already happened.)

Delete/Validity

This is a trailer, not a narrative. It's different then Shadows and that's why I put the delete tag. Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived 10:57, September 6, 2020 (UTC)

At worst that means this should be invalid, like Ace Returns! (webcast), but not necessarily deleted. That being said, this page was created as valid by an admin, User:OncomingStorm12th, so I suggest you get your facts right. This has emphatically not been termed a trailer by Arcbeatle, who have instead dubbed it an "overture" in the YouTube description. --Scrooge MacDuck 11:00, September 6, 2020 (UTC)
I completely concur Scrooge MacDuck, except I think that this should never be invalid, due to the precedent set by the Tardisode series. Epsilon the Eternal 11:03, September 6, 2020 (UTC)
Yeah, brevity in itself is not really reason for invalidity. On top of the great Tardisodes precedent brought by User:Scrooge MacDuck, we have Vrs a (literally) one-sentence story, which has also been created as valid from the beginning. OncomingStorm12th 17:31, September 6, 2020 (UTC)
"Narrative" just means if things happen with sort of the loosest sense of continuity following them. (Fictional reference works are non-narrative in that things aren't happening, they're describing things that ostensibly already happened.) In this trailer/webcast are things happening?

A Cyberon appears in a dark, wet alley, it turns, and it attacks something off screen.
No less narrative than the Tardisodes, Vrs, Untitled, etc. Epsilon the Eternal 18:46, September 6, 2020 (UTC)
Exactly. (Clarification to my prior comment, a fictional reference work is perhaps better understood as describing "furniture of the world" than just events that already happened.) Najawin 19:07, September 6, 2020 (UTC)
