Fan Fiction Section Features Wish List & Task List - Page 4

3. The index of the stories could have another column where the beta reader of the story could be credited for br-ing that particular chapter (they could be official member of IF FF BR team, or any another user) just like the FFGs are credited below the story title. We are currently crediting them using teh Author's note blank or in the chapter itself, but it would be great if they get more visible credit.

I completely agree. Currently BRs get little or no visibility or credit other than a small note at the bottom of the chapter. We do take a lot of time and effort to evaluate the chapters and make edits/ offer tips, and I think this will help in not just getting BRs noticed but also may compel more people to get their work BRed.

There can be a small section under the title of the story where the user can mention if their story was an entry/winner of some contest organized on IF. 

This was originally suggested by Seventreaks 😅

Can we have a separate box for "Trigger Warning"?

It would also be helpful if we had the option to break the "Summary" and "Author's Note" into multiple paragraphs because right now it looks way too clustered.

1. A way to view reports. I cannot speak for Appy, Madhu and Ramya, but I cant see any reports made about comments/stories in the FF section

2. can the arrows on the button next to the status of the story be replaced with text like "update status" or something. It is small and hence people tend to miss it, so their stories remain in drafts and unless they contact the ffes, we can't do anything about it to help them. 

3. When a person tries to upload a picture/ upload a link to a picture that's greater than the banner size, can they be notified like the time they used to be notified when they tried to upload png images instead of errors like "server error 500, POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS INPUT FOUND!"? 

4. Maybe there could be a section where the FFEs could post notes if an author makes some mistake while posting/there are reports against the story (so instead of pulling down the whole story(chapter) or removing the offensive parts ourselves, we can point it out in that section and the author can decide what they wish to do with it) This note should be visible only to the FFEs and the author. That way, we don't have to worry about pms.

5. Can the summary and author's note have the < br > tag so that users can use the Enter key and it doesn't look like one whole paragraph?

6. A separate fields for trigger warnings.

7. can we have the house of br link like the ffg 's shop is linked here?also, the ffg shop link needs to be updated

Things Done till now from the list:

1. A way to view reports. I cannot speak for Appy, Madhu and Ramya, but I cant see any reports made about comments/stories in the FF section DONE
   
2. can the arrows on the button next to the status of the story be replaced with text like "update status" or something. It is small and hence people tend to miss it, so their stories remain in drafts and unless they contact the ffes, we can't do anything about it to help them. DONE
3. Can the summary and author's note have the < br > tag so that users can use the Enter key and it doesn't look like one whole paragraph? DONE
4. A separate fields for trigger warnings. DONE
5. can we have the house of br link like the ffg 's shop is linked here?also, the ffg shop link needs to be updated DONE

Moderators including FFEditors are deleting the records of what was reported and how they dealt with it? Why?

Shouldn't records be kept so that the senior DT can tell whether moderators are taking offences seriously, or actually committing and encouraging offences?

Please don't offer Moderators the perquisite to delete reports of their own X-rated stories (published long before the Fan Fiction section rules were relaxed to allow it) and their cronies' sexual-assault-arouses-the-victim stories.

 As our Moderator Appy aptly pointed out, that post wasn't actually intended for your attention; rather,it was a request asking for the Tech team's attention to rectify a technical snag.

The moderators in this IF are very accomplished and established  DT members who adhere to the COC rules religiously. No moderator will ever be lenient toward any member or show favouritism or discrimination in any way.

Your suspicions about the Moderators' and DT members' motivations are unfounded and absurd. You keep involving the DT members of the FF section in your  pointless arguments with spurious accusations.

No one is becoming a mod with concealed agendas here.  As you presumes, no one is committing and encouraging offenses. [ these are your words]

Being a mod entails a lot of responsibility; they must strike a balance between vice and virtue, with wisdom. 

You should understand how to respect the people who are in charge of those rules and follow the set regulations before making a derogatory remark. 

You keep making disparaging remarks against moderators and their associates, which is offensive to us and highly undesirable in the public media/forum. 

All the BRs, FFGs, and Editors on the FF team, including our Mentor Moderator Koeli, are devoted writers and artists who hold their craft in the highest esteem. This is a team with high morals and ethics. 

Before commenting, you have to think twice, what you are saying and whether it is relevant to the context or not! 

This time, the matter is serious and we are requesting our higher authorities to take an action.

There should be a vault system where all the plagiarised stories can be shifted and only DTs and FFEs should have access to it for reference.

Along with that, there should be a DT NT section on the summary page of each story. Currently, there is no place where a DT can be put and we don't want to put it up in a summary or author note.

Maybe there could be a section where the FFEs could post notes if an author makes some mistake while posting/there are reports against the story (so instead of pulling down the whole story(chapter) or removing the offensive parts ourselves, we can point it out in that section and the author can decide what they wish to do with it) 

This section can be hidden from the readers, but only the FFES and the author have access to it (in the edit FF page) and when the FFEs post something, the user is notified via notification. 

When we paste from word document the space between two lines get jumbled. Please look into this aspect. It creates a lot of issues and or work gets doubled. It is for fan fiction section as well as normal forum posts

Is there a way where we can unmigrate a thread (clearing all the connection it has to a book and then being able to migrate it to another book) or maybe combining two books in a single book?

Some users have multiple threads for one story and tend to migrate each thread in one book and as FFEs (or the users themselves) can't really do anything about it.
