2. Explain the extra hoops she is having to jump through to keep her fanzine fic online and posting the artwork for Angel in the Dark
Process
3. Have Abuse review the entire exchange to make certain policies were followed and see if additional training is needed.
4. Have Abuse improve their initial contact form letters and allow for flexibility/discretion to work with authors instead of immediate deletion and imposition of permanent strikes
(Added 5): Implement 2-stage deletion so AO3 can restore when they make a mistake/negotiate with the creators while something is in abeyance. I realize that we may not have enough woman hours to monitor and negotiate. But having an undo button when there is a corner case or a mistake would go a long one to ease the heartache.
Policy
See if OTW can build on their existing hosting of PDFs of old fanwork like they are doing now for Jane Land’s PDFs. Perhaps something that Open Doors can look into as there will need to be permissions. I don't think there will be a lot of old timers flocking to do this, but it would be a great thing to offer to older fans and also give a pathway (albeit a tiny one) to preserving older fanfic. I have been working with many of them these past 5 years as part of the Fanzine Preservation Project so I have contact info.
