Talk:Reddie

If the fanmix section is too long I'm sorry... There weren't many that denoted very specific tropes. I did end up moving two to Richie's page, and two to Eddie's page, because they focused more on their POVs. That may not help much in the end, however, because I am not sure how many fanmixes are yet to be recorded that are purely for their characters. Maybe someone who isn't so easily triggered by angst would have an easier time combing through and finding enough overlapping to make a significant difference. But I have to be blind toward a lot of stuff in this fandom in order to function... Jacksbrak (talk) 04:41, 28 January 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for all your work on this page, Jacksbrak! When it comes to fanwork examples I would say if you can only find a few that denote specific tropes, it's fine just to add those. Or if there are some particularly well-known fanworks, those would make good examples for the pairing/trope. Obviously fandom has a lot of different fanworks for any given ship (or trope, or fandom) so we usually just add the ones that are well-known or represent a particular trend/trope.
While it can be hard sometimes to gauge where the line falls, I think a good rule of thumb is to consider whether there is something to say about this particular fanwork and why it's being added to the page, other than "it's a fanwork for this ship". --enchantedsleeper (talk) 11:26, 01 May 2020 (UTC)


I removed the "Examples Wanted" because I think there's more than enough examples now. – GoldenFalls (talk) 22:04, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

This page seems a little overrun with example fanworks, is there a way that we could possibly format it differently? -- Kingstoken (talk) 23:07, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
I would suggest sorting by trope, but the question is whether this is feasible given the amount of fanworks there are to sort through... --enchantedsleeper (talk) 11:29, 01 May 2020 (UTC)
Sorry, for some reason I didn't get notifications for this page... I promise I am attempting to sort that out as I go. I am making headway with moving fanworks to other corresponding pages. Sorry if anyone finds this page annoying... I just want to be thorough as this fandom and pairing means a lot to me, and it's very large, with a lot of content to be worked thorugh. - Jacksbrak (talk) 09:18, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
May I create a Reddie/Fanmixes subpage since that portion is quite lengthy, and not easily sorted into various genres for dispersion? - Jacksbrak (talk) 05:21, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

Removal of Annotation Information

I would ask input of annotated information including links to pairing pages not be removed in the future. I purposely include that information in case a fanwork would be better suited to another page/we decide to pair down on this article. - Jacksbrak (talk) 12:05, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

I understand. I won't do it again. You can access old versions of the page in the "View History" section, if that helps. --caes (talk) 07:09, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
No problem! I understand that you were trying to streamline things and make them look better. It's just with the magnitude of this pairing, I wanted to see some works compiled so that I could make a more educated decision on where they would best fit. Thank you :) - Jacksbrak (talk) 09:16, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
