**Shane, you completely misunderstand. This is not removing links based on content, and has nothing to do with that previous discussion. It's removing them based on if few (less than even 5 people) actually use a site and it's just a random fan promoting their own little pet project. Indeed, below you just said you wanted to remove EVERY fan forum we have links to...for their CONTENT, and fan fiction, for their content. BSwiki is not the place for posting fanfic, but we should provide links to major fanfic sites, so people looking for this type of thing know where to go. --[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 23:00, 13 July 2006 (CDT) | **Shane, you completely misunderstand.

::Just so I got it out of my head... while I was watching x-files, this thought came by... if that website you removed got more than him working on it.. it could be a good site. Disquilifing a site based on it's content. --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 00:14, 14 July 2006 (CDT) | ::Just so I got it out of my head... while I was watching x-files, this thought came by... if that website you removed got more than him working on it.. it could be a good site.

In the past this is something that was mostly left to consensus. That is to say, not that we had votes (with "keep"s and "delete"s and reasonable discourse) but that sites that needed to be added would tend to be added (or re-added) and sites that didn't need to be there would tend to be removed. I guess if a "universal linking metric" need be applied, I would err on the side of inclusiveness, especially since real estate isn't much of a problem in the CP, and that there hasn't been much abuse of the system thus far. Oh, and I'm going to add BSGTNS.com to the list (we've got it on the front page but not in the links area).--[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 06:55, 14 July 2006 (CDT) | In the past this is something that was mostly left to consensus.
