"Fictional location" (in the SD, the disambiguation, and the introduction) describes The Backrooms -literally-, but doesn't really get at the essence of The Backrooms which is more about its abstract phenomenology. I'm not attached to the suggested re-phrasing of "collaborative storytelling," but I do think we should aim for something that addresses the phenomena because therein lies the notability of the topic.

I (RegularlyBlue on YouTube) was able to find an authentic roll of the Backrooms chevron/arrow wallpaper from the 90s, and I've made a full YouTube video describing its story and how I found it. Broogli (a popular Backrooms YouTuber) has also made a video on the topic. I think a nice little summary of the wallpaper's origins and how I found it would be a good addition to this page, especially considering how much of a staple the iconic wallpaper pattern is in the Backrooms fanbase. All necessary info is in mine and Broogli's video on the matter, or I can just provide info here. Thanks! RegularlyBlue (talk) 02:17, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

I propose adding the following links to the "External Links" section:

https://www.reddit.com/r/backrooms/ - The backrooms as a concept initially grew beyond the original 4Chan post from here.
https://backrooms.fandom.com/wiki/Backrooms_Wiki - The first wiki to expand on the backrooms and attempts to canonize the concept.
https://backrooms-wiki.wikidot.com/ - The second main wiki, often considered the authority on the backrooms lore.
http://liminal-archives.wikidot.com/backrooms-limspace-system - The third wiki with quality content.
Optionally, as sub-bullet to the Fandom link: 

https://backrooms.fandom.com/wiki/Backrooms_Wiki:The_Story_of_the_Backrooms_Wiki - As it is a decent reference to the history of the Fandom Backrooms Wiki.
These are the links I can think of for now. If I think of more, I will create an additional post. Thank you for reading. TheDadams3 (talk) 23:54, 14 October 2025 (UTC)
