Talk:The Need
Hi. Why would the author's full name be used? I'm not aware it's a pseud, and it isn't on the pre 1995 "okay to use" list.--Kiwisue (talk) 02:54, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- I don't know if this is a pseud or a real name either. I am guessing here, but it looks like the name was transfered from two other websites discussing the zine: one a review of the zine and the other from Palelyloitering: http://palelyloitering.com/zines/discoveredonarooftop.html The zine review dates back to 2000 and PL was updated as recent as 2014. byslantedlightly, the PL website owner, is pretty good about vetting fan names. But you can contact the Wiki Committee if you have more info on Vicki's preferences.--MeeDee (talk) 04:28, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- It's byslantedlight, btw. Huh - I didn't get that link on Google when looking for the author name - odd, because I use the site. Just generally, I know she has had names there which she has taken down when alerted that they aren't pseuds, but it doesn't mean mistakes can't be made. I have no personal knowledge of this one, I got it as a circuit story, not in a zine.--Kiwisue (talk) 05:05, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
