:::I really feel this discussion is premature, especially as the slash fiction article is underdeveloped.  I believe this merge discussion could be a case of demolishing the house before it's built, as I gather that YobMod wishes to take slash fiction to GA.  Taking that article to GA would mean that the literature would need to be looked at, which would have flow-on benefits for related articles such as Kirk/Spock - the first documented slash pairing.  (Allegedly, The Man from UNCLE slash was written prior to Kirk/Spock, but there's little evidence.) Hogwarts/Squid is slash for the sheer fun of it, just so that you can say "OMG, isn't it funny, I just read this slash with Hogwarts and the Giant Squid..."   It's not a One True Pairing (from the days when that actually meant something), as Kirk/Spock is. 
 :::Please note that I have expanded the Kirk/Spock article with information on the "Pon farr" subgenre of Kirk/Spock slash fiction.   Kirk and Spock is about the story where friends become more - where their mutual accord in the series is explored and turned into something powerfully romantic for the fans, by the fans.  According to Tosenberger, Kirk/Spock influenced the slash scholarship to focus on the "friends become more" story, not examining other movements in slash... "Friends become more" obviously wouldn't work for the contemporary popular pairing of Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy.
