Well, I'm not trying to spam or astroturf by any means, but I've seen entries in there from other authors about their worlds, so I figured it might not be a bad idea. But if the idea is generally looked down up, then I won't bother. Of course, then I'd ask, if that's true, why are there entries in there about other authors and book series, like Discworld, Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card and Terry Pratchet, as well as numerous other authors as well?
Just seeing those entries tells me that it is allowed. However, given that some stuff is lumped together, I almost think they'd want you to lump everything together at first, and then when and if the situation requires it, break out certain parts into stubs or separate articles. At least that's what I'm gathering by reading wikipedia. Now if what you said is true that this kind of thing *is* banned, then I can only account for their entires being in there due to sheer raw popularity, and only because they were entered by fans of the said authors and/or books.
And again, I'm not thinking of advertising or astroturfing here. I'm merely looking to follow in the footsteps of other authors who have put themselves and their works up onto wikipedia. Of course, if they got put there by fans, then I guess I'll just have to wait until I get popular enough to warrant a wikipedia entry. ^_^
