The article should rest at Who Killed Kennedy, per T:DAB. In cases like these, the in-universe article goes straight, and the real-world thing named after it gets the dab term.
The best example of this, of course, is All-Consuming Fire, another book-within-a-book. In the same vein, The Pandorica Opens — the painting — and The Pandorica Opens (TV story), which contains the painting. Or Castrovalva. Or even The Five Doctors, which has nothing to do with the serial.
Now before you create the article, I would love to point you to the forum discussion where we discussed just how to write these articles, but I can't seem to find it myself. I do believe, though, that the general consensus was to write it much like a real-world novel page, with a general plot section but of course without notes, references, continuity, etc. But make sure you stick to what's written in the text of the book itself as read... in the book.
Another thing to consider is links. I can run my bot to change all instances of [[PROSE]]: ''[[Who Killed Kennedy (novel)|]]'' to [[PROSE]]: ''[[Who Killed Kennedy (novel)|]]'' if you like, but the rest will have to be done manually through WHL. Remember, we want people to be directed to Who Killed Kennedy (novel) when we mean the real world book.
