I'm really torn about having this in the article namespace... I believe there needs to be an article covering fan fiction. On the other hand I believe that we need to be Vigilant when it comes to adding anything remotely fanon to the Wiki. So... all I'm really saying right now is that we should make sure that none of the fanon spills over into any of the other articles.

:Understood. The extent of ALL fan fiction information should live within this article, or in subpages of this article if necessary.

This is a tad confusing. There is [[Fan fiction/Battlestar GalactiSimpsons]], [[Fan fiction/Gemicon]] and [[Fan fiction/MrsRon Essay]].

- Understood. The extent of ALL fan fiction information should live within this article, or in subpages of this article if necessary. All other articles are subject to Vigilant Verification. I think this article might be a healthy outlet for the fan fiction information, and may prove to be a useful resource. --Steelviper 10:05, 7 April 2006 (CDT)
