Talk:OTP

I can't find the "move page" button, but it might be a good idea to move OTP to One True Pairing, and then set the acronym as a redirect, if anyone wouldn't mind doing that. Etothepii 04:24, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Given that I think OTP is the much more common usage, I'm minded to create a redirect from One True Pairing to OTP. --Betty 04:29, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

I am not sure that exclusivity is a given with the term OTP. I've seen some interesting discussions about its various interpretations, but unfortunately can't currently remember where they were. However, I've seen OTP used to describe the sole pairing of interest within a fandom, a pairing for which the fan ships those characters exclusively with each other, and even simply a favorite pairing. I'm in the latter category - I refer to Remus/Sirius as my OTP because it's my favorite HP pairing (one of my favorite pairings in any fandom, in fact), but I ship, write, and read many other HP pairings as well, including Remus/Regulus.

I removed the wording and incorporated your suggestion, because you're right, this was an inaccurate reflection of how the term's actually used. But feel free to jump in and edit if there's anything you want to add or correct! I am only just finding my way around here as well :) --Lian 00:03, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
