Horror podcast → Speculative fiction podcast – The article currently uses Template:Speculative fiction sidebar and the horror genre is a subgenre of Speculative Fiction so there would be more sources available. There is also a Category:Speculative fiction podcasts that includes the subcategory Horror podcast‎, and despite being a broader subject the Speculative Fiction category does not have a corresponding article yet. I would recommend moving this page to speculative fiction and in the future create an article specific to the horror subgenre once there is more content added to Wikipedia concerning horror podcasts. I think it'd probably also be fine to simply create a Speculative Fiction article now and keep this one, but right now half the page is dedicated to awards for Speculative Fiction podcasts and a Speculative Fiction sidebar.

 * Weak oppose There is of course some overlap between between speculative fiction and horror, as evidenced by the content of the article, but an article on speculative fiction podcasts would be much broader. Moving the page would mean it no longer accurately covers the content of the page. Looking at how articles on films and magazines for example, there are articles for fantasy, sci-fi, and horror but not the catchall category of speculative fiction. While it shouldn't necessarily determine what we put in articles, 'speculative fiction' is a term much less widely used |Fantasy_fiction|Horror_fiction|Science_fiction than its main subcategories.

 * Let's scrap the move then and I'll start pages for the other subgenres while improving this article. How do I go about resolving the move ? TipsyElephant (talk) 22:52, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * weak support someone would have to be willing to rewrite it to add spec fiction stuff if moved—blindlynx (talk) 17:55, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

I made Fantasy podcast and I'm already under-fire for it not being a real category of podcasts. I don't know if I'm supposed to intentionally direct people to the article, but you guys seemed relevant to the discussion over whether the article should exist or not.

Notable examples
Hello! This is my first topic, so patience is appreciated. A relatively popular Canadian podcast, The Wrong Station, is unlisted here. I thought it would be a relevant addition, but I want to better understand what criteria is used to determine an example is "notable". Many of these podcasts' creators have discussed horror podcasts that have inspired them as well. I want to avoid listing any new examples on the page until I get a bit of feedback from you guys.
