Stargate Crossfandom

Hi! Looks like it's time for your friendly neighborhood mostly-hands-off moderator to stick her nose back in to say hello!

First, I'd like to thank all of you who've been posting here; it's a great resource for fans with a particular interest in the Stargate subsection of the crossover pool, and I've really enjoyed reading the stories.

However, I have noticed a slippage in the usage of tags in recent months. I understand that it takes a few extra clicks to add them on, or to comment on the latest modpost to ask for new ones to be created, but it makes the community much easier to search and more useful to fans discovering the community for the first time when they are consistently applied. Please take that extra moment when you post; I'd really prefer not to have to take a more active role in moderating around here.

To clarify - every single post should have at least one of the dot tags from the top of the list of tags, and preferably more if you're posting fic (.ficpost, and either .sga or .sg1 depending on the base fandom for the crossover, plus the outside fandom(s) you're crossing with).

Thank you again. And now, back to your regularly scheduled programming!

Hello all,

I've generally been a fairly low-maintenance moderator here in stargate_xing, just tagging fics once a week or so and posting a story of my own here or there. We're not high traffic, but we do see a decent flow; thank you to all of you who keep writing, reading, and reviewing!

My question today: would it be worth it to revive the "challenge prompt" feature? Would you consider writing for one, and if so, how often should the prompt change?

Please comment and let me know-- and keep up the good work!

One week and one day until the new seasons of Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis begin airing!

In the meantime - for those of you in the US with cable TV - there are two all-day marathons on the Sci-Fi Channel, today and tomorrow, to revisit the last several episodes of seasons 8 and 1, respectively. I know what I'll be watching tonight and tomorrow night. *grin*

Here is a link to the schedule of just what is airing when:

Happy watching!

It's SciFi Friday again! Four weeks to go until the new season starts!

According to Gateworld.net, when the season begins again the SciFi Channel (in the US) will be airing all fourteen episodes of Firefly, in their original intended order, before the regular programming block. The schedule will look like this:

7:00 PM -- Firefly
8:00 PM -- Stargate SG-1
9:00 PM -- Stargate Atlantis
10:00 PM -- Battlestar Galactica

Talk about Must See TV. =)

Welcome to the Stargate Crossfandom Community!

Stargate_Xing is for just what it says - crossovers involving the Stargate universe. That means that each story posted here or linked here must crossover some character or other significant aspect of the Stargate Movie, the Stargate SG-1 TV series, or the Stargate Atlantis spin-off with another world.
