Comment on Fandom nonfiction: seeking feedback

    Thinking twice is always a good idea anyway for a space that's meant to house works which are permanent and long-term, but after thinking twice keep posting.

    Your voice is valuable and deserves its place in the archive. The anon comments are borderline bullying and definitely showing their privilege (an expectation that the archive should only hold what they find valuable).

      Thanks for your support! I'm of the opinion that meta counts as permanent fanwork, so I never considered not posting it. I dislike the idea of people saying what is or is not allowed, though.

      Anon comments usually are bullying and privileged.

      Wow, throwing around 'privilege' like that. Are you trying to drag the discussion into SJW?

      "definitely showing their privilege"

      Well, that's certainly more than a little disingenuous. If I suggest to a librarian at my local library that perhaps 'Harry Potter' does not, in fact, belong amongst the 'True Crime' novels where they have shelved it even though, yes, Voldemort was a very bad man who totally killed people, sure, what sort of privilege/power-relation do you imagine to be taking place there?
