This is the elephant in the room when it comes to fan works. Obviously when we use other people's intellectual property, we need to ensure we aren't violating their rights and hurting them. At the end of the day, as fans our intent is to celebrate their works with our works, so this site needs to work to support ip holders. here we can discuss ways and means we can do that.

I think first and foremost we must ensure that none of the fan works that are effectively advertised(?) by this site, are inhibiting an ip holder's ability to profit from their work. Secondly, we should ensure that the fan works we effectively advertise(?) are not aiming to profit from somebody else's ip.

I don't think anyone can argue with these tenets.

I think it needs to be addressed, is it 'advertising' to state that a thing exists and allow people to tell others what they thought about it? Where is the line drawn here?
