[[Wiktionary:Criteria_for_inclusion#Fictional_universes]] and [[Wiktionary:Criteria_for_inclusion/Fictional_universes]] require fictional names to be cited “out of context in an [[attributive]] sense.” But the terms are not used attributively in the examples.

:I have myself been under the impression that others had superior knowledge of the meaning of {{term|attributive}} so that the uses above would be included.
