Comments from feedback form - "Whether this article was bias ..."

Whether this article was bias or not has nothing to do with the issue itself, because the general event is the same no matter what details are given. The problem is that the authors were capable of removing the literature themselves if they have been notified properly, considering this rule has not been properly enforced for years. Even then, there was absolutely no consideration that these authors may only have one copy of their works on Fanfiction.net. A more effective way would have been to send a copy by email to the owners' accounts or (as you see on popular websites like Facebook, particularly their "privacy" setting) create a block that would only allow the owner to view it until the content is edited and approved. It was well in their right to remove the stories, since it was in their guild lines in the first place, but I would say a good 2 percent (probably even less) of the mass inappropriate fanfiction material comes from bad organization of the guild lines themselves. I am pretty curtain a good 90 percent of internet users skim or outright ignore rules and only look at the guild lines for ratings. The "MA IS NOT ALLOWED" should be placed at the bottom of the ratings, not the top, so it isn't skimmed over since many have the argument of "confusion with the ratings" from what I have seen. That way, the notice is directly after the reader has properly read the ratings and would immediately catch their eye according to the direction they are reading. People are naturally inclined to remember the things placed at the END, rather than the beginning, which is a conclusion most writers can draw from experience.

All in all, if you skimmed over the details in that long wall of text, the only problem is an error of proper communication and lack of record towards what would be done with the author's material. After all, for all we know, some of these authors were unavailable during the deletion and have not found out about it until recently.

Now lets focus on less-solid details:

I've noticed on this list that these fandoms listed all have one thing in common, popular yaoi (boyXboy) communities (particularly Hetalia). Wiki is an inaccurate source, and this article is likely bias, but there is also a POSSIBILITY that the information might be ACCURATE. Unless you have solid proof that it isn't, such as an article with an actual list of the number deleted, I am going to point out a theory:

That this is a poorly-concealed attack on slash communities.

I am familiar with almost everything on the deletion list, excluding Twilight (which I honestly don't want to look into after hearing about a few details of the events inside, so I'll leave that up to you to "not" find some sort of yaoi community and prove me wrong).

I would appreciate if someone could post an actual list on the numbers deleted, since I believe this to be a theory. Homestuck was not listed (the Homestuck fandom is known for some interesting things, possibly beyond the rating scale for inappropriate material, and is likely more popular than Hetalia due to the recent popularity boost from their kick-starter).
