The 'canon' genre is meant to imply that the story is supposed to be read like it's backstory for the games themselves.

Rising Star is one such example; the goal of that story isn't just to entertain, but to explain more of the story behind the cast of UFO.

In that case, I'll have to add "canon" to White Rose's genre list, won't I?

I don't really like the idea of that term. I much prefer "backstory" as a genre. Is that fine?

I am giggling so hard you don't even know.

I'm curious...did either of you look for the summary that had that genre? :3

I take full blame even if it's all due to Purvis' influence.

I love the summary MOS has been given by the way.

"Summary: A story taking the ordinary girl Marisa and turning her into the ordinary witch Marisa."

Perfect :)

Esifex send it to me.

I forgot myself what the "canon" was used for before, despite the fact that I added it myself, iirc :V

Also Ryuu: Just continue the story in its original thread. The status in the Listing is just a small help for the readers, no rule for the writers

Would "Eastern Wonderland Story" qualify for this canon tag?


Fiction: August Star in Autumn Sky Eastern Wonderland Story Book 1

Oh, cool, mine falls on #200.

One thing - its 'nifty telepathic powers', not telekinetic.

May not mean much to the average Joe, but there is a WORLD of difference between the two powers.

How often do you update the works listing?

Also, I like how you put my older story "Mystearica's Fan-tastic story time" on the list :3 "Status: Drama/Comedy Genre: Ongoing" XD I'm not complaining, that is seriously hilarious!

Once I'm over with my university stuff at the moment, I'll go back to adding new works as soon as they're posted. After that it's a question of when someone gets around to read it before the summary is added.

once in a great while, the library fairies swoosh by in the night when we're all asleep and update the page

of course we all have to be asleep, so this rarely occurs

That answers my question if any of the other Librarians has had the time to update the list recently, didn't get around to check.

I'll get to it asap, which means likely tomorrow >_<

Librarians are supposed to earn their keep by maintaining the Fanworks listing and keeping it up-to-date, but they get delayed from time to time. Don't worry about requesting your story to be added, they'll do it for you.

In fact, the only fanworks-related request you might ever want to do is a request to unlist your fic, if you choose. Doesn't happen very often, though.

Out of curiosity, is there anyone here who has read all 200+ of these stories? :3

:fail:

Not quite, but I nearly did.

Back when the summarization was first getting started, at the time, I'd read roughly 80% of the stories that were already there.

It's been fixed. Thanks, Rou.
And, well, White Rose is pretty long, so that might have something to do with it.

Though, it's tempting to change the summary to "In A.D. 1997 war was beginning", which is still quite accurate.

We're actually going to bother with keeping VG555's sock-puppets' swill here?

Well, I suppose we could file it under Comedy...

Atleast equally worse pieces do exist here already. I see no reason to omit anyone's work based on how bad it is now if we haven't before.

WHO submitted it matters jack all to me either.

So callous, it feels, that you easily mention 'equally worse' pieces. Then again, I'm not a full-on Librarian, so I've been picking and choosing what I've wanted to read lately, so you've got the one-up on me.

That being said, I'm a bit afraid now to volunteer my time reading/reviewing and summarizing some of the newer works, for sheer sake of being afraid of being assigned one of these reputed terrible works. Lemme know if you need another reader, anywho - it's been far too long since I've helped out.

Currently NaNo is taking away time, so big summarizing action to get the List back up to date will be done in December. I apologize for the inactivity and the backlog that piled up, I had a few rough months back there >_<

As for the VG555-fic: That was posted by 7hs who hijacked the account, actually, not by the guy himself. It will still be listed normally. It's in the library, so it will be on the list.

Something that I just spotted, but  #017, Erroneous Paradasi... Paradisic... Padara... EPI, is listed as being Incomplete. As of July 2010, it was completed on UsuallyDead's website.

If you already know this, then IGNOOORE MEEEE.
