March Meta Matters Challenge, Check-in 5

[yourlibrarian]

Hello everyone! It's check-in time again to see how we're all getting along with our meta importing.

Comment below with any of the following:

1) What fandom would you like to find more meta for (through this challenge or otherwise) and why?

2) Number of works you've managed to either identify for future transfers, or which you've now moved to AO3.

3) Any problems you've been having as you copy/import your meta.

Remember, this account accepts anonymous comments, so if you don't have a Dreamwidth account we still want to hear from you and have you take part.

As always, if you've got tips you've developed during this process, do share them with the group. And if you can help someone out with a problem they're having, share a solution.

1) It would be nice to see more meta getting archieved for all kind of manga. As it's often over many years a series is running there's a lot of speculations and theories developing as long as a canon is still ongoing(and often even long after): It's a pity to think so many of these posts will eventually get lost completely.

2) I'm still in the process of writing new meta based on smaller posts. This week has been unexpectedly busy, so I haven't come as far as I would have liked to. But I'm in the middle of writing and bringing some of those new posts towards their completion.

Regarding fan speculation about future seasons, I recall someone saying somewhere that their posts were less useful because they had been Jossed along the way. But I think that it's still quite interesting to see what the fandom had been assuming in retrospect. I know that some of my early SPN posts had assumed certain things were going to happen which didn't. So I wish people would preserve those posts. They're still valuable!
