It\\\'s also a redundant mention that regardless of honesty we can\\\'t escape subjectivity, but my entire point was that at least we should make an attempt to weed out the most impressive ones, and not allow anything whatsoever. This was a starting attempt, not a final solution, but at least I made an effort.
If you want to reword the borrowed basic mediaminer definition that bigoted, hate-spewing, or rape-endorsing filth have no redeeming artistic value, or simply want to remove a few words, then write up a suggestion here.
Anyway, returning to the sticking point, the basic definition of this page is that it should only display stories that can strongly be argued to place in the top 10%, othervise it inevitably boils down to self-promotion/whoever among the authors and acquaintances of authors for the thousands of stories out there, who know of and bother with this place with whatever alternative handle they choose. And I don\\\'t have the impression that most contributors are open regarding this. Thrythlind/Nanya was/were \\\'\\\'deliberately\\\'\\\' honest about the self-promotion. It\\\'s very easy not to be.
Shadow Chronicles has received awards for being an extremely well-written and tightly plotted fanfic and is probably the most applauded story among the ffml mainstays. Dark Titans is iffy, as the first part starts very weak, but the Brushogun arc was extremely well delivered, and there is no denying that other popular authors find it to be very creatively written, especially in terms of characterisation. Despite unfortunate somewhat elitistic implications, this really is something considerably more useful for me than random personal favourites from unknown quantities/editors.
You do obviously have a point about that the section needs further work however, for starters I haven\\\'t read all of the mentioned fics in the second section, and the inclusion of others, such as Right Moments, WFRose, etc, are probably very debatable.Another point is the unfortunate, and already lampshaded, somewhat pretentious word usage, but again, alrernatives are welcome.
