Sticky: [admin] Welcome & Friending Meme!

Hello everyone! I meant to do this the first day of creating this comm, but life got ahead of me. This post functions as two things: (1) a welcome to 62ruepicpus and (2) a friending meme for canon setting LM fans on Dreamwidth.

As far as the welcome goes: welcome! The comm founder is smithens (that's me). This community was designed to be a place for Brick-based Les Misérables fans on Dreamwidth to share and crosspost their content, as well as to have original conversations and discuss meta, headcanons, etc. Adult content is allowed so long as it is properly age restricted. As of yet, there are no rules other than "be nice to each other". More detailed rules may come along if necessary.

The 62ruepicpus Friending Meme

If you've never participated in a friending meme, it's quite simple: just copy and paste the code shown below into a comment reply to this post, and then fill out the form! Users can then review your comment and decide if they'd like to get to know you better, and you can do the same! Anyone with an interest in canon setting, Brick-based Les Misérables is welcome to participate in this meme, as that's the basis for the community. :-)

You can easily link to yourself on other sites using this format: <user name="USERNAME" site="SITE">. For a list of sites compatible with this code, check out Dreamwidth's "How do I make a link to another account?" page.

Please use the below template to write your comments! All fields are optional, but it's kind of useless without details about your interests, and listing your other identities might help you find old friends.

Dreamwidth account: <user name="INSERT-DW-USERNAME">
Identity on other sites (Tumblr, AO3, Pillowfort.io, etc):
Old or former identities (Your old LJ or LJ clone, your Frenchboys.net email, LMFFI pseudonym, or Le Café username, that MdN or Abaissé forum account you abandoned, etc):
What kind of content do you create? This can be anything from fanfiction to headcanons to tapestries to cosplay. If you're here, you almost certainly do something, even if it's "discussion"!
What do you ship, or do you prefer gen content? Feel free to specify your OTP and secondary ships, the ship you like but only in one setting, or your favorite platonic ships in genfic.
Favorite characters:
Favorite parts of the Brick or digressions:
Other interests:
What do you post on your Dreamwidth?
What is your journal's access or comment policy?
Do you post adult content?
Anything else you'd like to share?

Tagging Guidelines

Guidelines for tagging your posts within this community are very simple!

1) Do not use the "mod post" tag unless you are both (a) a mod and (b) posting as a mod.

2) Use the "crosspost" tag for posts which are primarily links to other posts, on Dreamwidth or off-site. This does not include link collections with content within the post to community, such as reclists. (However, a post only of a link to and description of one's own Pinboard collection would be considered a crosspost.)

3) Use topic tags accordingly. Top-level topic tags are (listed alphabetically):

cosplay, for sharing photos of or posts about Les Misérables cosplay

discussion, for posts talking about Les Misérables that don't fall under headcanons, meta, or resources
fanart, for posts of fanart or fanart recs

fanfiction, for posts of fanfiction or fanfic recs

filk, for posts sharing filk (fan-made songs as well as lyrics)

headcanons, for posts sharing headcanons or headcanon memes

meta, for meta discussion about LM and LM fandom

recs, for posts with fanwork recommendations (does not need "crosspost" tag unless linking to a rec post elsewhere)

resources, for posts that provide nerd resources such as links to external journal articles, analysis of primary sources, translations of research, etc.

4) Check the Tags page if you think you might be creating a new sub-level tag, just in case.

[admin] Other Communities of Interest

This post was taking up a lot of space in the Friending meme post, so I've given it its own.
None of the below-listed communities are affiliated with, co-signed by, or even necessarily recommended by

62ruepicpus. They may be empty or have gone several years without new posts. They may have content you don't like or unfinished content that you do. But, they're Les Misérables or historical communities on Dreamwidth so they're worth listing for our purposes here. :-)
Suggestions for additional communities are welcome; please share in the comments! And if you are an administrator of one of these communities and would prefer it not be listed here, please comment here or message me and I will remove the link.
