Talk:Unclaimed Badfic

Just a thought: if you are removing a fic from the unclaimed list and don't put it on the claimed list could you put in the edit summary why you are removing it? It's bad enough money keeps disapearing from my pocket without telling me where it is going. Indemaat 09:22, 25 May 2008 (CDT)

I just removed the Harry and Abby Potter set from the list because they are no longer hosted on ff.net, so the links don't work. I can't find them on Google, either, so feel free to replcae them if you come across them. Tiroth 23:47, 22nd November 2009 (GMT)

First fic I want to park here is a crossover. Where to put it? Under both fandoms? Indemaat
 * I'd guess put it under whichever is more prominent, if that makes sense JulyFlame 09:49, 7 February 2008 (CST)

You do not have to post to the Board to put a fic on this list. Just because a fic on the list wasn't announced to the Board doesn't mean it can be removed without justification. Someone thought it was worthy of being PPCd, hence it being here. Trojie 22:15, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm just running through the list and deleting all the Unclaimed fics that have dead links i.e. fics that have been deleted. If the fics are no longer accessible and haven't been claimed yet that probably also means that no one has the fic's text available. And if no one has the text, no one can go on a mission in the fic. Seems rather pointless to keep the links on this list. IndeMaat 17:21, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * In the end only taken five stories off the list. Badfic authors don't see the error of their ways quickly. IndeMaat

I think the 'random people' part was better than 'random person'... I think it was intentional, as it's funnier than the correct form. The only bad English I tolerate is the intentional kind, and it seems to fit that category just fine. Buta 10:07, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

One of the Warcraft Suefics (Stand of the Exiles) seems to have been deleted, so it's off the list. (But if anyone needs the text...well, let's just say that thin-skinned Suethors are predictable creatures.)  Farseer Lolotea ● ( talk) ● ( contribs) 10:45, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

New guy here. Until I stopped by I had no idea there was such a proliferation of Wall-E fanfic. I think I was happier then. --DirtyCommie 04:43, 10 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Although I think you should tell me if any of those didn't really deserve to be on the list. I might have reported something that isn't too bad just because it's WALL-E. Buta 13:22, 10 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm probably not the best judge for that, since it's my view that all Wall-E fanfiction should inherently not exist (the story wrapped up fine, everything ended, all was explained! No need for more!). I am something of an extremist on this issue. --DirtyCommie 14:55, 10 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Good point, although an official sequel would be nice. Buta 15:06, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Should there be a section here for Tamora Pierce unclaimed badfic? I'm a fan and the Tamora Pierce fandom is at least as large as the Redwall fandom. I've been finding badfic from there all over and I'd like to help. ~Cinnia Aine~ 23:14, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Cheers, that would be really helpful. I'm a fan too but so far have deliberately avoided badfic for her worlds. However ... if you run across any badslash involving Nealan of Queenscove, I'm definitely interested in killing it! Agenttrojie 02:57, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

I don't know if I should notify one of the wikia leaders or edit it myself. I'm not sure of the editing rules for pages like these. ~Cinnia Aine~ 03:59, 17 April 2009 (UTC) Should there be a new category for Internet Media fics? Things like Red vs Blue, Homestar Runner, the various Abriged anime series, etc. PoorCynic 01:07, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just follow the format of the page. That is, under the right heading, preferably in alphabettical order, add a link to the story (with a name to that link) give the rating and the summary. Simple. IndeMaat 15:38, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

About 'Saving Connor' (HP fic)
I heard that 'Saving Connor' 's author was no other than Limyaael, author of the famous LJ Fantasy Rants. She also writes original fiction (in her own unique fantasy universes) and wrote LOTR/Silmarillion fanfic. In her rants, she makes it clear that she hates Mary Sues and badfic, be it original fiction or fanfiction. So I wonder why 'Saving Connor' is in a PPC badfic list. I haven't read the fic, though, but I know the author to be very careful not to write badfic. JulyFlame told me she agreed and actually liked the fic, even if some elements could have led her to think it was badfic. Khajidu 16:05, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Coincidence confirmed. This has been attributed to both authors. By said authors. ETA: Confirmed here by one of them that she's the other.Khajidu 17:00, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
