The section begins:
But the section that follows doesn't back that up. The fictitious entities Goblu and Beatosu and Mount Richard are jokes, not copyright traps. The last paragraph explains that copyright traps are _not_ fictitious entities or other deliberate mistakes, but only stylistic fingerprints. Only one of the entries, Agloe, actually is a fictitious entity intended as a copyright trap, and of course that one ended up being non-fictitious. -- 50.0.128.103 ( talk) 05:16, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
Yes, I agree with this assessment. I have thus separate sections of the fictitious entries page into "practical jokes" and "copyright infringement" as these are two different examples of how fictitious entries are used. Asianflavoure ( talk) 18:28, 4 October 2018 (UTC)Asianflavoure

While unintentional, I noticed Foundation's John Clute, while reviewing Twentieth-Century Science-Fiction Writers, found a couple ghost titles? Would those go in this article or deserve their own separate entry?-- ☭🎆🌎🎼🎺🐦 03:22, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
This article and trap street wander around each others topic, especially on the issue of deliberate copyright. I reverted teh removal of a CN tag for that reason, although I can't see a simple way to resolve any forking at this late hour. cygnis insignis 20:02, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
