Crowd-sourcing HD fan-fair: Progress Report

[snowgall]

This is just to update those interested in the status of the HD-fan-fair Crowd-Sourcing Data Project where we're hoping to find the answer to the burning question: Who tops more?

Background: Inspired by the comments on my Who Tops More post, I have decided to try running the same analysis just on the fics written for the hd_fan_fair fest from 2009-2014. But I need to get the complete set of data first, so I set up a public Google spreadsheet in the hopes of crowd-sourcing it. Anyone who wants to can add to the spreadsheet and help fill in the gaps in the data. (Note: my original post suggesting the crowd-sourcing is f-locked to hide the spreadsheet URL from vandals, but if anyone is interested in helping with this project, just PM me so I can send you the link).

My original spreadsheet only contained data for 111 fics from the fests, out of 228 231. I didn't even have the titles or URLs for the rest. But after my call for help, cagnurit came through like a champ and over the weekend entered the rest of the needed title/author/URL/date/summary data for the 120 missing fics. She also added topping and bottoming information for several of these fics and others as well. birdsofshore also added some top/bottom info, and I went through and made sure all the data was consistently formatted and clearer for visitors.

So at this point, we have complete information on 'who tops' for 64 fics rated R or NC-17. For another 20 R/NC-17 fics, capitu gave no 'bottom' tags in her recs, so I have assumed there was no penetration. What we're still missing is top/bottom information on 66 remaining fics rated R or NC-17.

That's it. Just 66 fics. I have highlighted in light red the records in the spreadsheet we still need info for. I invite you to take a look at the spreadsheet (find the link in this post, or PM me) and enter data for any fics you may have read.

**If you add or change any data, it would be helpful to leave a note in the "data entry by" column so I know who to thank and what has been added. You can also add a comment right in the same cell if there's data you disagree with. Just highlight anything you do so I can see it and make a note of it. Thanks so much for all the help so far!

I checked the second page (comments) to see if there was a color key before I asked. I just did a quick pass what I remembered well enough to know where to look for smut.

The second page (*slaps head*)! Yes, that's where I should put a key. I didn't know if anyone would even look there :) I'll go do that...
