OT: MEFA Nominations > Labeling Posted by laur\_melyanna May 22, 2004 - 3:26:53 Topic ID# 1038
Hello there, I wanted to say that, I usually don't, actually I
never, read Het stories, I am a Slash person only and seeing it as
you have labeled Slash stories, could you please label Het ones as
well, it is only fair.

Thank you for the attention,
Laur.

You need to read the file "That Which Needs to be Identified" in the Files
section. We don't label anything "Slash" or "Het"--unless the author does
that. We only use the Romance Partners.

Read that document and I think you'll understand better.

I do have a suggestion about that (the labeling). I don't know about the other
list members, but I'm doing most of my reading from the website, not the
nominations database, because I can just click on the link and go to the story,
instead of having to cut and paste it out of the database. Would it be prudent
to put the romance pairing column up on the website as well?

If it would help, Ainae, I use Dreamweaver to put up the OEAM site, If you sent
me the file I could do that and send it back to you this weekend.

Or maybe I'm being slow and you can just click the link in the database?

You can't click the links in the database. I could put them on the site. I
just was procrastinating. It's all done from a word document, actually.
Mail Merge and a Cut-and-paste. I'll try to get them up there this weekend.
How's that?

Actually, I got ambitious. They're up there now.

But remember that I pull those Romance Partners directly from the database.
If they're not in there, they're not on the site.

Well, I was just thinking if others were like me, they might be reading off the
website instead of the database, so having the pairings up there might not be a
bad idea. No rush though, and hollar if you want help coding or anything...
