In some cases, fictional file formats that are described sufficiently within the story might later be implemented as real formats on a computer. (I have done this with a Morse-code-based picture format used in Murdoch Mysteries in one episode.) How should these be listed? --Zzo38 (talk) 22:34, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

If there's a real working implementation, it can go in whatever section is appropriate for the file type. It can still be cross-referenced on the fictional page to show its origin. Dan Tobias (talk)
