Okay, that helps alot. I wasn't sure if I was merging stories from it, or bringing it up a level, since I had NO clue what it was. So, it comes up a level.

What the hell is "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon"?

Do you have any more details? I did a quick search of the originals archive and couldn't find anything that matched what you've described.

YuGiOh and YuYu Hakusho zones are edited and added to.

I'm opting to not add the yuri sub categories at this point in time, as there are only 4 stories uploaded into that category. The het and yaoi pairs subcategories have been added. Thanks again for your help.

Here are some links for you The Rise of the New Lord Forbidden An Even Greater Sin

Knorg hasn't had stories up for a long time. Shifted his account to "reviewing account only" in the description some time last year.

hmmmm... went ahead and searched some more for you, the only fic coming up that matches is the one you already mentioned by ShenLong

This topic might help you determine where it best fits.

Naruto zone is finished..... I've noticed for the amount of stories, I have a decided lack of data for actual pairs. Moving right along.... I wanted to thank the authors who've already started moving their stories around working within the new schema. It's quite a help to me.

Once I have a fic link (for the story id), I can move it easily. Not a big deal at all. I have forums set up to post stuff like that, as you come across it. That's actually part of a different project, which I'm hoping will be announced next week or so. However, the recategorization actually dovetails IN to the general cleanup that will be occurring.

Okay, since I'm actually working on this subdomain now, any more major pairings I should know about so they can be added?

errrmmmm..... pls remember I'm not familiar with this fandom and also separate indicate whether m/m, m/f, f/f

Pair specific subs added: In het--- Ami/Zoisite Makoto/Nephrite Minako/Kunzite Rei/Jadeite Usagi/Mamoru In yaoi-- Kunzite/Zoisite In yuri-- Haruka/Michiru

Here's what I'll do. You guys give me the actual pair names. In your DESCRIPTION put the numbers for whatever it is you use 'em for. For that matter, you can actually add that to the Gundam Resources forum here as well. That would actually be handy to have up and available for reading.

Stories that are in the same zone/subdomain, can be moved around fairly easily. If you are not the user, and see a story like that (with recent changes I expect this). Put me up a post with link or links to one or more of them, and then let me know where they actually belong.

It's actually not so much a layout change as change in category hierarchy. So, no, the user is not able to change that.

You're not the only one. There's a set of forums for cleaning up, which is the next project after the recategorization is done. Provide a link to the stories and where they should go, and I'll get 'em moved.

Am done with the InuYasha archive. The specific pair categories can now be found as a subcategory of their type of pair (i.e. het, yaoi, yuri). DarkFics is now a subcategory of General. New categories: AU Threesomes/Moresomes ----- Starting on the Naruto zone next. It's actually going to be relatively simple comparatively. Some category title edits at the upper level, the additon of specific pair categories to the pair type categories, and the Shouta category will have its fics moved to the appropriate categories after that. Reason being that that is technically a story tag (and available as a one, if memory serves), not a true category.

In general, your story would go to fandom it's written for. If it's an original work, though, it would go in the originals zone/subdomain, as it is not a fan fiction. General Category Stories that would go in that category in a fandom, would be something that is a story that is set in the fandom's world, but without emphasis on a romantic pair. Say an action/adventure type story, for example, that's set in a fandom's universe. AU - Alternate Universe Category These would be stories that involve characters for a fandom, in an alternate universe. If a story is AU, regardless of pairing TYPE, THIS is where it belongs. Pair Type Categories (het, slash/yaoi, femslash/yuri) If your story contains many pairs, as is often the case, WHERE your story would go is determined by who the main pair is. Then, if there is a subcategory that lists that pairing, it would go to that subcategory. Threesomes/Moresomes These are stories that have 3 or more as the focal point rather than a pair. It can be a mix of sexes, or all one sex. The only requirement for selection would be 3 or more. Crossovers Say, for example, your story is a crossover between InuYasha and Harry Potter. It takes place in feudal Japan, the main pair are InuYasha characters. Your story would then go into the InuYasha archive's crossover section. Round Robins You know that toggle that lets you have other users add to your story, or not? That is how you'd do a round robin fic. So, they have their OWN categories.

Actually, the way you would determine what pair specific category you story belongs in, is who the main couple is. I've read plenty of fics where there are multiple couples, but the category they belong in (and are generally in) is the one for the main pairing. Now, I've noticed you put the English name with the Japanese name in parentheses. Would that be easier if that's how I set up the categories as well?

A pairing specific category is determined by the main couple of your story. I am not familiar with this fandom, so you guys could give me some pairs to work with, maybe? As to the order of the names, it doesn't necessarily have to indicate seme/uke, although that would be ideal. If I did that, I'd have multiple pairing categories for the same pair. You can always use that in the DESCRIPTION for your stories you know.

I'm assuming these are all f/f pairs? You guys gotta tell me that too.

I'm still working on it, as I posted on my progress report. It takes a lot longer to move the categories downward, and you have to remember I also work full time as well. So, I do this in between work and sleep. Started the Inu cat yesterday, I expect to finish it up the majority of it some time tomorrow (It doesn't hurt that I'm off work and have more time tomorrow). At least that's what my target is. And yes, you're early on why they're not there yet. Rest assured, they will live in their proper pair type categories. Oh yeah, you'd asked for an Inu/Rin category awhile back, if you look it's a sub of het. I have 203 more het fics to move, and since I moved over 700 this morning, I do expect to keep within my time frame. After I finish moving the het stories into the subcats created for them, then the yaoi pair categories will be tackled next. If you take a look at the Bleach archive, or one of the top categories in anime or games (i.e. Death Note or FF8), that is the actual schema I'm following for the main categories.
