Who OTP is a Livejournal community focusing on any rare pairing inside the Doctor Who fandom. It contains over 250 pairings.[1]

As of August 2013 it has over 600 members.

From their FAQ:

"And by 'rarer', you mean...

Broadly speaking, anything that isn't the Doctor paired with the Master, Rose, Martha or Jack. This is pretty flexible - Two/Rose is a rare pairing, and that's fine here, as is One/Jack or Five/Martha. Basically if it's a version of the Doctor that Rose/Martha/Jack hasn't met in canon, you're good. Since there are a hell of a lot of permutations of Doctor/Master I've had to rule it completely out, sorry - this includes Academy era Theta/Koschei fic. There's quite a lot of Doctor/Master in this comm's tags because I was a bit slow off the mark in realising how popular it had become.

But anything else is all right. Yep, provided it's Doctor Who related (no purely Torchwood stories, please, although a Torchwood character paired up with a Doctor Who character's okay). New school, old school, stuff from the books or the Big Finish audios or the comics, fic about those two background characters who were in one scene of one episode, crossovers, het, slash, femslash, threesomes, all fine.

So it's just fanfic?

Not at all. If you've got a Ten/Mickey vid or Three/Jo icons or you want to ask where all the Jack/Sarah/Harriet Jones is hiding, go ahead and post that."[2]
