1. To deliberately produce something so bad it's good. Creating something genuinely campy would be the perfect shatnerization. While not quite as unachievable as exceeding the speed of light, perfect shatnerization is as difficult as bowling a perfect game.
(Note: This does not infer that Shatner's early musical works are deliberately campy. They do, however, set a standard.)
2. To parody yourself (a la William Shatner's commercials for Priceline).

The "How Berkley Can You Be" parade is a day for Berkleyites to shatnerize themselves.
Newsweek: Doesn't it bother you that your version of "Mr. Tambourine Man" is a camp classic?
William Shatner: ...yes, in the beginning it bothered methat people singled it out and poked fun at it. They didn't know what I was doing. The album, "The Transformed Man" is much more extensive than that song. But since people only heard that song, I went along with the joke.
Newsweek: Uhh...OK Bill.

A niche sexual fetish combining food fetishes with foot fetishes. To perform a Shatner you slather your lover’s toes in Mayo, wrap their feet in sandwich fixins (usually bologna and American cheese), then gorge yourself on the delectable sweet feet meat treat you have created. It is unclear why this act is called a Shatner.

The Shatners, also known as Shatner Syndrome, is a term used to describe when actors fall from stardom to obscurity, alcoholism, and at times insanity. The term references William Shatner and his post-Star Trek career.

When a person who was previously attractive and in shape or not so attractive or in such great shape changes in appearance and looks bloated and washed up.
I was watching Boston Legal the other day. Man, have you seen James Spader recently? He's really Shatnered.
