|text='''Fictional googlology''' ('''FG''' or '''fg''') is the niche hobby of assigning {{wp|Unicode}} characters as names for fictional numbers. Fictional googology is common, as well as widely accepted, on [[TextWall]], but it faces near-universal stigmatization among OWOT's users. While fictional googology is meant to be an offshoot of {{wp|Googology|standard googology}}, it is typically regarded by OWOT's users as more of an art project that primarily serves as entertainment for children than a mathematical pursuit. People who engage in fictional googology are known as '''fictional googologists''', '''FGers''', or '''FGists'''. | |text='''Fictional googlology''' ('''FG''' or '''fg''') is the niche hobby of assigning {{wp|Unicode}} characters as names for fictional numbers.

A final word on orphaned articles: orphaned articles are articles that no other articles link to, making them nearly unreachable and, as such, effectively useless. To ensure all articles are accessible, cross-reference articles and combine smaller articles into larger, more comprehensive ones whenever possible. See {{section link|Our World of Text:State of the Wiki|De-orphaning orphaned articles}} for more ways to de-orphan articles. | |||
