Nonfiction pages
Nonfiction pages always have titles ending in "(nonfiction)". I treat nonfiction pages like Wikipedia pages, using the same general style.
You might want a nonfiction page for yourself, for your organization, and so on.
Some fiction does appear, carefully segregated, on nonfiction pages. There is a "Fictional cross-references" section for fiction-related links, and "In the News", which deliberately confuses fiction with nonfiction.

Guiding principles
- The Gnomon Chronicles is my work of art, my baby.
- But I like to share; I enjoy collaborating with others, and I believe in collaboration as a way of art.
- It's like Dungeons and Dragons — I am the Dungeonmaster, the Gnomon Chronicles is my dungeon, and I invite you to play characters in my world.
