Talk:Web fiction

message: Currently Webserial redirects to Web Fiction.
But now Web Serial API (https://wicg.github.io/serial/) exists which will need its own page probably soon.

thread_title:  WebSerial redirection: add disambiguation? 

message: Web fiction is predated by usenet fiction serialized in usenet messages.   Theme oriented text mode BBS - Buliten Board Systems - had fan fiction too.   This predates the internet and is at least from the 1980s if not earlier.   Prior to that were photocopied fanzines with fiction stories.    — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:D591:5F10:51:C194:2471:D8AD (talk) 07:26, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  History Missing 

message: This could be its own article.
I think this article could benefit from a list of popular sites for web fiction. listing name, url, purpose/niche of website, and popularity/unique visitors to the site. That way people can use this as a reference for where to find web fiction. This would only include sites that host web fiction, not people's blogs or whatever.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Whyme943 (talk • contribs) 22:05, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

Web novels in South Korea exists. 
could we create a new page for Web novels in China? 
There's a great article that discusses this.

thread_title:  Suggestion: creation of new article / page 

message: i copy-pasted the full source of this page to make a copy as a subpage of my user page because i was having trouble bringing myself to be bold in editing the actual page itself and i got this message when creating it
An automated filter has identified this edit as containing references to one of the following self-publishing companies: AuthorHouse, Trafford Publishing, Edwin Mellen Press, CreateSpace, iUniverse, Lulu.com, Xlibris, or Grosvenor House Publishing. Please be aware that self-published sources may be vanity publishing and rarely meet Wikipedia's standards for reliable sources.
i'm not 100% certain which sources it means but i think it might be the 1998 sideroad one or the 2007 comicspace one i reckon i'm too new and whatnot to really judge if these sources are reliable or not does anybody know if we should maybe remove these or find replacements for them or whatever Believerinmagic (talk) 18:39, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: This looks like a bug in the filter that's generating the warning.  It's caused by the link to lulu.com, which isn't a real error because it isn't a citation.  You can ignore the warning. Regards, Dan Bloch (talk) 22:33, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
