Master List of Topics and Fandoms

The following fandoms and topics have overviews. If you do not see your pet fandom/topic listed here, and are interested in doing an overview, by all means please comment and tell me!

If you are interested in doing an overview, please comment to claim your fandom/topics, then join the community. I cannot give you posting access if you do not belong to the community. :(

Guidelines:

  • If you've signed up for a fandom overview, you need to join the community so I can give you posting access. Watching the community isn't enough--you have to join.

  • The main goal of these fandom overviews is to collect links to places on LJ that might be of interest to fans, to create a bouncing off point. How much other information you include is up to you. Feel free to check out other overviews for ideas on how to organize and format yours!

  • Please use this format for your overview subject line: Fandom: [Fandom Name]. This is for ease of reference. All overviews will be tagged and added to the Master List by the mod after they are posted.

  • You have six months to post your overview, which I think is more than enough time to get it done. I will list the date you claimed your fandom in the sign-up post, and once six months has passed with no overview posted, it will be given away to the first person who comes along and claims it.

  • We expect you to update your overview to add new communites/delete dead ones on a fairly regular basis. Please put the date last updated at the bottom of your post, both for your reference and mine. Overviews that have not been updated within a 12 month period will be assumed abandoned and offered up for grabs to the first taker.

  • Please post your overview here in the community rather than linking to it in your own journal. I'm not trying to make it harder for you, honest. I just want the info here in the comm in case you delete your journal (oh, like you haven't thought of flouncing off in a hissyfit at least once *g*).

  • It is up to you whether to include RPG, badfic, and real person communities in your overview. Personal preference of the overviewer reigns.

  • Please feel free to comment in this post with any questions or suggestions you have.


I normally update this post and grant posting access when I have enough requests to do them in a batch. If I don't get back to you right away, don't worry, I will!

Note: If you volunteer for an overview, you need to join the community so I can give you posting access. That's "join," not just "watch."

I will give you posting access when I reply to your comment and let you know to go ahead with your overview. If you are not a member of the community at that time, I can't give you access. /o\

Oh, I thought Stargate Atlantis had already been snapped up. If it's not, I'd love to do it!

In a comment to the 'where is your post' post you just made, I also offered to take The Sentinel if the gal who signed up can't do it...that still stands, as long as you have no problem with me doing both of them.

No, I believe it was one of the other Stargates that was completed. The Atlantis one is all yours.

I don't have a problem with who does how many, as long as they get done. *g* In a month I'm gonna do another post and anyone who has not done their overview or contacted me about it is getting removed from the list and their fandom will go up for grabs again. So you should know in a few weeks.

Please join the community so I can give you posting access, and read the informational post here:

Please pay special attention to the part about the subject line of your post!

Thanks!

Hey, I just wrote up a guide to BPAL fandom (Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab -- a perfume company gaining popularity in fandom), and it occurred to me this might be a good place to post it. The guide is here, if you wanted to take a look.

Love what you're doing here! Wish it had existed when I started six years ago. :)

Hello,

I just found the link to this community on [info]jengrrrl's journal; this is a marvellous idea!

Are the fandoms listed above the only ones for which you are accepting information? If not, would you permit me to write one for the science fiction television show Mutant X? It's a relatively small fandom, but I have already compiled a large database of MX online links (including LJ ones) at The Great Mutant X Fandom Directory, and LJ specifically at [info]childofgenomex.

[info]devildoll

September 6 2005, 17:55:40 UTC 6 years ago

That would be great! I've added it to the list. Please join the community so I can give you posting access.

So... I was thinking that Boondock Saints could use one. We just had a re-release in theaters (one night only! Nearly EVERY SHOW was sold out, everywhere, and people were still left wanting to see it. We fans are QUITE proud of ourselves, especially since there was ZERO advertising for this event.) and the new DVD just came out and OMGTHESEQUAL is coming (it's been in litigation for 8 years, don't blame us for squeeing like 10 year olds at an NSYNC concert in 1998).

So.... I'll do it. If thats okay? Let me know, and I'll join and all that.

June 1 2006, 17:34:34 UTC 5 years ago

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Long holiday weekend + movie release in a fandom in which I run sites and lists = buried under online responsibilities!

And my answer is yes, by all means, Boondock Saints is all yours!

Yes, replying to my own post. Just wanted to suggest House, M.D. for the list of unclaimed fandoms. Also wondering if groups about LOTR actors are going to be covered in the LOTRips overview, or if that's going to be strictly fic related. Thanks!
