:: And I do think the specificity in DABBING is the best route. ''The Seeds of Doom (in-universe novel)'' and ''The Seeds of Doom (in-universe serial)'' both sounds fine to me. But are we all also fine with ''Who Killed Kennedy (in-universe novel)''? Or does the mere ''intention'' of the original media to also exist in-universe provide an exception here?

: Personally I'd slightly prefer the dab "(in-universe)" to "(in-universe THING)", because it makes for less dab terms and, more importantly, avoids discussion of ''what'' a certain in-universe element is, and I just prefer it for reasons I cannot explain. But if people prefer "(in-universe THING)", I'm perfectly happy to go with that, much ''much'' more than our current policies. I think the most dangerous part of our current policies is that there are many in-universe versions of novels which are ''undabbed''.
