Fanwork Examples?

It seems like a good idea to start adding some example fanworks to this page, but I'm debating whether to go about it by adding them as examples under the fanwork trends section, or creating a new section. Thoughts? I know it can get a bit unwieldy/endless once you start adding examples for such a wide pan-fandom page, but it also seems odd not to have any. --enchantedsleeper (talk) 13:17, 01 May 2020 (UTC)

I'm in favour of a new section, because I expect a lot of other trends and a lot of fics. But as of right now, I think they could be added to the fanfic trends section and we could split them off later. --Auntags (talk) 14:26, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

On a related note, pixiv has ~6 pages on art tagged for masks (see here), most of it anime style girls in facemasks. There’s probably some fan work examples in here, but I know nothing about anime/manga. If anyone with a better knowledge base wants to take a peak? — Error cascade (talk) 17:04, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Title

I'm going to change the page title to COVID-19 and Fandom if no one objects. —caes (talk) 20:58, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

I'm not opposed to the move, but I'm wondering why a redirect wouldn't be sufficient? There is already one redirect, Coronavirus and Fandom, and we're going to have more! Looking at the Ao3 tags, fans are using a lot of different variations, with different capitalization and spacing. As someone who lives in a part of the world that isn't capitalizing Covid, I find the capitalization a bit... anxiety inducing. But I'm happy to go with the majority decision. --Auntags (talk) 14:19, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
