March Meta Matters Challenge, Check-in 5

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 - Merlin! I'm late to the fandom, so it's interesting to dig up old meta posts from when people were first watching the series. I also would really like more people to chat about music - especially Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers, and other people who have made big comebacks.

2 - I feel like the meta I've written isn't worthy of being archived? But this challenge is inspiring me to explore more meta topics.

3 - I haven't tried yet, but I'm excited to read through the meta tags now that this is happening!

Yes, SPN had so much meta! There were great discussion posts back in the early seasons. I haven't seen much discussion related to any new fandoms, but I wonder if that's more to do with the fact that shows come out all at once instead of week by week. That format gave me more time to reflect and also read meta posts.

I just got into Merlin last year, so I tried googling and browsing LJ tags and I've been able to find only a few meta posts. Is your AO3 name the same as your DW name? Feel free to link me and I'll check out your posts! I'm currently rewatching Season three so that may inspire me to write and reflect more this month.

That's true, the volume is crazy! I don't even know what most of my friend's list is watching these days.

Tumblr tagging is such a mess! Sometimes I stumble across some good meta but then I can never find it again.

Thanks for the link!
