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) Is there some meta you've always wanted to see someone else write that you haven't come across yet? (Maybe you'll incentivize someone else doing the challenge!)

2) Did you write new meta based on the last post's prompt? Share it here! Or if you didn't, share a link(s) to a work that's now housed elsewhere that you'd like to get more eyes on.

And if you've been lurking, remember that you can join in to this challenge at any point during the month. The important part is getting started!

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) Are you having internal debates about what content you're considering moving versus not copying over?

2) How have you decided to organize your meta in its new location? Is it chronological, by fandom, by theme, by length?

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.

March Meta Matters Challenge, Check-in 3

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) Do you know of any ways to promote meta you've copied over? If so, share your ideas!

2) Did you write new meta based on the last post's prompt? Share it here! Or if you didn't, share a link(s) to a work that you've recently relocated that you'd like to get more eyes on.

Please don't hesitate to do self-promotion! Anyone participating in or following this challenge is doing so because meta interests them. So it's very likely someone would like to check out those works.

Additionally, I've been alerted to the fact that our IFTTT applet which used to crosspost MMM posts here to our Tumblr account (by using RSS) has apparently stopped working due to some change on the Tumblr side. If anyone knows of another way to automatically crosspost, let me know and I'll try to get that restored.
