Talk:A Snack Before Dinner

The full name of the author is given on the publisher page we link on this page, so why is this removed from the wiki? Also is on online archved stories of the author on that site that show up in google results. I don't get why the name is then a problem here.--RatCreature 21:05, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

I didn't look any further than the gardener request and went with that. You're right, if there's a solid footprint elsewhere, than it's not policy to remove it on Fanlore. Is this what the gardener request is asking? Mrs. Potato Head 21:09, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I did some looking, and the zine is listed on the Sunnydale Slayers site with the full name, and Tina is still listed under her full (actually, an even *more* full) name on the SunS site's fanfic index; and she has fanfic up on ff.net under the full name, etc. I'll see if I can track down Celli to see what exactly she's asking for here, but on the face of it, I don't think we need to worry about this unless Tina takes active steps elsewhere to erase her last name. --Arduinna 21:14, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

yeah. I mean, if the author was in the process to change her online presence or something it would be understandable, even if this wiki wasn't the absolute last site to change the name and it was still up elsewhere. But if even the ff.net page which the author controls uses the full name it seems kind of ridiculous and pointless to shorten it here.--RatCreature 21:18, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Having checked with Celli, this is indeed a case of the author changing her online presence; she has a request in to the publisher's site to change it there as well, and will be changing the stories on ff.net. So I went ahead and deleted the redirect page that had her name as part of the title, and will leave the redacted info on the page here. --arduinna 05:27, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
