message: I added a quote from an interview by Roddenberry. Also, I moved his quotes to the main "Creator's responses" section, instead of "Other responses" since he's... well, the creator. Regarding the Motion Picture novel, I added info about the t'hy'la term introduced there, and changed the "co-written" part. The novel was written just by Roddenberry; it's the film that was co-written.
I didn't touch the part about the novel Killing Time since the info came from a book. Nonetheless, I'd like to point out that there's a LOT of controversy and conflicting versions about that story. The author has stated multiple times that there were no overt slash elements, and that it was Paramount or the publishing house who recalled the first edition after finding out it was the un-edited version, sent to print by accident. The story that it was Roddenberry himself who recalled it, or that it was because of Kirk/Spock elements, is dubious at best.
I also put into context the Susan Sackett's letter. To wit, I've been totally unable to locate such letter. The only reference is a fan claiming to have read such letter, in the context of a discussion between pro and anti slashers in a fanzine. The letter itself is not published in the fanzine. Now, one has to wonder if this is a good enough source to include in Wikipedia, unless we start using fan claims from any forum or fanzine as proof. Given the subject matter of this article, and that it's something that definitely triggers many people, I suspect someone was catching at straws to find anything as anti-K/S proof. Nonetheless, Sackett showed a certain personal hostility to the idea of K/S in other letters, so I gave it the benefit of the doubt. 84.124.213.187 (talk) 13:10, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

message: I have reorganized the article to create a section titled "Slash subculture" with the subsections "Academic interest," "Common plot devices" (previously its own section), and "Backlash." Feel free to make minor edits to the titles of these sections; I am still unsure if they are the best phrased. I believe that adding this section on the academic interest in K/S slash fiction and vidding is relevant to this page however, since it focuses on K/S specifically, rather than slash fiction as a whole or the wider academic field. I hope this also improves the notability of this page.
The academic interest section is entirely new with sources I have compiled that are now added to the references. Backlash is a new section as well. Common plot devices retains most of what was previously written with some additions from The Final Frontier is Queer on common tropes as well as reorganization of the paragraphs for better flow and cohesion. I also expanded on the pon farr trope based on the contents of the pon farr page. 
The references have some overlapping sources when a given source is cited in different parts of the article under this "Slash subculture" section, which I'm not currently sure how to fix but will look into. In the meanwhile, if anybody knows how to fix it, suggestions/guidance would be appreciated. CMO-Bashir (talk) 06:17, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
