Talk:Fan fiction/Golden Toaster Awards/Archive 1

I don't remember what "lifetime achievement awards" like the TOSer, Solium, and GINO stood for. I have to ask the guy in charge: the actual website (GalacticaActual) where the event was held has been destroyed, apparently, so I also no longer know exactly who the nominees were, but I can check for the meaning of these awards. I do, however, have an accurate list of the winners.--Ricimer 17:13, 29 January 2006 (EST)

I like this. =) --Drumstick 17:23, 29 January 2006 (EST)

Silly Pages

If these are real, then this page doesn't actually belong in the Silly Pages category. --Peter Farago 17:48, 29 January 2006 (EST)

Well....then what category would apply?--Ricimer 17:52, 29 January 2006 (EST)

I'm not sure if we have one for fandom topics. Do we have other pages that would be included in such a category? --Peter Farago 17:54, 29 January 2006 (EST)

A concern

I'm just a bit concerned about this article, given that it isn't an actual award ceremony. Perhaps this article would be better left in the user space (i.e. User:Username/Golden Toaster Awards) rather than in the article namespace. Thoughts? -- Joe Beaudoin 14:21, 24 March 2006 (CST)

No. Ron Moore & Co. know about this thing and we're starting up the Second Awards; we just started this week, and our placeholder website for the 2nd awards is up here. More news to follow. Please leave it as it is for now. Plus, quite possibly the entire online community is involved and it really is an "awards show", just one held online.--The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 14:28, 24 March 2006 (CST)

I don't mind having fandom topics discussed here, as long as there's no ambiguity between what's canonical and what's fan-related - and this article is pretty clear. --Peter Farago 16:30, 24 March 2006 (CST)

Even if they know it, it doesn't mean everyone excepted it. I think it should not be in the article database. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 17:26, 24 March 2006 (CST)

Perhaps some kind of template for the header, much like the current neutrality one, but specifically for fan related articles. --Mercifull 11:06, 7 April 2006 (CDT)

Not a bad idea there: casual users don't always notice the categories on the bottom of an article; having a tag in "nice big shiny letters" (haha) having another tag that says something's related to the fanbase would be okay. --The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 14:01, 7 April 2006 (CDT)
