There is no current publication for Equinox. There is also no game resource page. There is a forum page for the game.

It depends on whether you are wanting a publication page, or a resource page created? Publication Page: Submit a TAS worthy of publication and the publication page will be created by a publisher. Resource Page: A staff member can create the page for you, but it will be blank. It'll require editor rights to add anything to that page. If you don't have any pertinent info for the resource page, there's not much reason to create one.

Yeah, a game not having a publication just means nobody's submitted a run that got published (nobody's submitted Equinox at all, in fact). A game doesn't have to be published in order to submit a TAS of it, so go right ahead and make/submit the run.
