Naming and Possible Disambiguation Page

Do we want to rename this? The phrase 'Queering the Text' has a lot of import in fandom, and I'd rather see that page devoted to meta around queering text rather than a fanfic. Can we make a disambiguation page? Thanks all --Linfin (talk) 23:35, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Good idea. I changed the name of the fic page. What should the other page be titled? Once we know that, we can get the disambiguation page set up. --MPH (talk) 23:42, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
We currently have: Subtext, Resistant Reading, Queer Baiting, Homoerotic Subtext and TPTB--aethel (talk) 00:05, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
I think the phrase "Queering the Text" should be reserved for a meta page. It's used often enough and has a solid history, I think it's different than subtext or queerbaiting. Resistant Reading also uses the phrase as a way of defining Resistant Reading, and offering a second viewpoint about what RR actualy 'is' in certain contexts.--Linfin (talk) 00:08, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
