I am slightly confused on this new "read the book" rule. Do episode rewrites of a show/anime series fall under this? I've written a few fics where I added my own spin to an episode (I added ideas that I thought COULD happen in said episode) and where I HAD to use scenes from the episode in question to tell the story, including specific dialogue. I changed things up a bit of course, sometimes adding things, but some dialogue had to stay the same, as well as fight/battle scenes that I reworded so I wasn't plagiarising. I understand not writing word-for-word from, say, the Harry Potter books into a fic, but what about certain key points from an episode/scene? I want to know if this story I wrote a few years ago (and that I'm rewriting due to storytelling errors) is allowed or not, before I think of posting it, just for it to be deleted soon after
