If you are going to arbitrarily delete things, please list the reasons for the deletion. CdrLexa (talk) 16:03, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

I've temporarily locked the page. CdrLexa - if you could make a list of the items you want restored, it will assist. DNL - can you please explain your edits and why the info was deleted? Please use this Talk page to discuss. --MeeDee (talk) 21:17, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Edit

I don't think the fic in question is representative enough of the couple to justify getting added to the page. DNL (talk) 21:22, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

The usual approach is to simply add more examples. No one fic can represent the ship, so we try to add a variety. If you feel that the examples are all too similar and leave out other common types of fic for the pairing, then explain your concerns on the talk page. It helps to be specific. Ex: "Fics X, Y, and Z are all zombie AUs, but the ship was known for its coffeeshop AUs and slow-burn canon-compliant fics. Because fics Y and Z were less popular than X, they should be replaced with fics B and C."--aethel (talk) 22:35, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Since no one else has clarified what the issue was, I added back what DNL removed and left in anything they added. I am not familiar with the fandom. Should the gardeners' template remain? Can we get any other Clarke/Lexa fans to review the page?--aethel (talk) 20:54, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

The reason I removed the mention of the pairing of Bellamy/Clarke/Lexa is the fact that Lexa is a lesbian, and that pairing is lesbophobic. It has no relevance to Clexa and it was never a big enough thing to warrant being mentioned in an article about Clexa. Plus it was mostly used by anti shippers to rile up lgbt Clexa fans. Will you please remove it? Keep the fics, I don't care. DNL (talk) 21:00, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Most of my knowledge of clexa comes from all the fallout that happened after the fact so I can't say how the fandom was reacting to things at the time of airing but my take on "it even drew some interest from Bellarke fans, some are even fans of the threesome pairing of Clarke/Lexa/Bellamy." is that I'd point to Bellamy Blake/Clarke Griffin/Lexa having 25 fics over 3 year on ao3, compared to 8711 for Clarke/Lexa and 8709 for Bellamy/Clarke. The pairing isn't mentioned on the Bellarke page either. At best it could probably go in a section about tensions between clexa and bellarke fans. Magpie (talk) 13:28, 27 September 2017 (UTC)

Page Name

I'd like to change the page name to "Clexa." This pairing name is extremely widely used by the fandom and media. Let me know if there are issues with this. --caes (talk) 00:12, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

I don't feel there is a need to change the page name, Clexa redirects here, so if anyone puts that in the search bar they go to this page -- Kingstoken (talk) 11:56, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
