New Challenge: Share the Love!

[ira_gladkova]

The Origin Stories challenge is now closed; thanks so much to everyone who contributed and helped us kick off the new year! Fan and user pages updated for this challenge include Kass, Mlle | User:Mlle, User:Espresso_Addict, and Justira — check them out, and don't hesitate to keep contributing to this challenge even though a new one is now available!

But the fan editing is not over, for now we get a chance to spread the love to others! Our new challenge is:

Sharing the Love

Writing about yourself might feel a bit too self-congratulatory... but writing about a friend won't! Do you have a friend or just someone you admire who's done something awesome in fandom? Stub out a page about that person and the awesome fannish things they do!

Please do feel free to drop a comment letting us know what you've added, or to ask any questions you may have! This challenge will last through February 14; the clock starts now; ready — set — go!

Same as last time, here are a few resources to help you get started! Take a look around the Fans category page for ideas and inspiration. And here's the Fan profile template again; the code is copied below for your convenience!

{{Stub}}

{{FanProfile
|name=
|alias(es)=
|type=
|fandoms=
|communities=
|other=
|url=
}}

As a tip, you can populate the "type" field with whatever fannish activities the fan is known for; some example values are given in the Fan profile template linked above.

Please do spread the word about this challenge if you're so inclined, and have fun!

I had a go at this with Penny Dreadful, as part of my bid to get better representation for Blake's 7 writers active in the late 1990s & early 2000s. I'll try to do a few more people if I get a moment.

Taking advantage of the extension to add Nickey Barnard‎, as well.

Awesome, thank you so much for both contributions!

I was pretty short on time, so I made very very stubby pages -- but at least they're there!

New pages: Renay, Seventhe, Chaosraven

And while one more friend already had a page, I added a tiny tidbit to hers in the spirit of this challenge! KJ

This is a really great challenge -- I wish we could run it again, and I wish I could have more time to participate! Oh well, nothing stopping me from continuing to do this =D
