now, though, perhaps that was a bad choice... Anyways, that was my original thinking... That's not to say it's the best title, though. As for adding it to Comedy podcasts, by all means, do so. The
Improvisation theatre category is nested within Comedy theatre, so that would be consistent. I think
697:
So I took a look through the sources I've listed. It looks like a lot of the podcasts have absolutely no connection to a podcast network or studio. I think we can safely say that any podcast created without any connection to a network or studio is definitely indie. Some of the podcasts are connected

uses the major film studios defined in the parent article as the line (I think), but it's not a very well-used category from what I can tell. Theoretically, any foreign film would then fall in this category, which I don't think is the intent (definitely not the practice). That indie film line also

and it was kind of supposed to act as the opposite of that category. However, it doesn't really look like reliable sources use the fully written out "Improvisational podcasts". I've come across "Improvised podcast" occasionally, but that isn't common either. I have, however, come across sources that
597:. However, none of these categories seem to be referring to the same type of improvising and there don't appear to be many other categories with the same naming scheme. Whereas "improvisational" has been used for multiple categories about improvisational comedy and acting.
616:
We should create a category called "indie podcasts" or at least "indie scripted podcasts". something along those lines. I'll look into what phrases reliable sources use and whether the phrase is used for scripted podcasts only or for podcasts in general.
576:
that makes sense. I'm not as familiar with the guidelines surrounding categories, but based on what you've linked to I think keeping the fully written out "improvisational" makes the most sense. The only category I found with just "improv" was
698:
to really small networks or studios (some of which I think are just made up by the creator of the podcast). So the line starts to get a little blurrier here. And then there are a couple that are connected to more notable companies like

Quality assessments by
Knowledge (XXG) editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at

It looks like both "indie podcasts" and "independent podcasts" are used, but the shorter "indie" seems to be used the most. Here are some sources I've found that use the phrases:

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to
