SquidgeWorld Archive
Thursday, 26 March 2026 06:00 pmSquidgeWorld is adding Original Works as a fandom. If I understand correctly, this will kick in after this upcoming Sunday's maintenance (March 29th). I dropped a mention of this over on a March Meta Matters Challenge check-in because I'm hoping this may be helpful to someone interested in archiving their works.
This obviously isn't a complete list, but I felt like I needed to pull out at least one or two examples before someone would want to take a closer look.
Original Works - Essays and Meta: Think of this as the, "I'm here to convince you to watch more science fiction shows" or "Here is what action movies get wrong about female characters" and the like.I suspect this may be the most helpful option.
Original Works - Diaries and Journals: This is where you can create something with your own personal thoughts. Almost like a blogpost or such.For all the 'is this really an essay or more of a blog post' sort of questioning.
Original Works - Guidance and Instructions: I don't think this will get quite much use, but you never know. Things under this "fandom" are truly instructions, like "How to save money in THIS economy" or the instructions I wrote on how to implement the OTW code to bring a new archive online.Ye of little faith. I would absolutely think this could be where @/ao3commentoftheday could share workskin tutorials, or someone could share a guide on how to go about hosting X off-site and embedding it into a work.
