This article has been nominated as a featured article. Discuss here.

LL's page should be nominated because it appears to be very-well related to opAphid (see "Cassie part 1 and 2) and overall appears to be adding to the opaphid/GuillotineCalamity arc. --209.202.75.74

I'm not sure I second the nomination, as the page itself is not particularly rich in content, but I do think these videos deserve further examination as to their full relationship to cassieiswatching and OpAphid. --Brucker 10:29, 24 January 2007 (CST)

I'm working on expanding the page now. - User Crowcity.

I'm also not sure I support it as a feature since it seems to imply that GuillotineCalamity and the rest are somehow connected in the series. I can't remember exactly where I read this, but someone said that in an email GC had clearly stated that she was not canon. I think I'd rather do a feature on LonesomeOctober or some other overtly fanfiction series, not something speculative. But I guess we'll see how this page turns out.

Ok. Lots of edits have just been made. Pictures now. Would it be better if I made sure to specify LL as fan fiction? She IS listed in that section. Crowcity

Seems kind of unfair to have this featured. LadyLazarus is nowhere close to a prominent fanfic, it's a sub-fanfic to the slightly more well known GC. Not only is GC fan-fic though, but it's a fanfic in response to a fanfic OpAphid. So basically if we were to 'Venn diagram' LL, it'd be a circle within the circle of GC within the cirlce of OpAphid, which in the scheme of things is still a relatively small circle within Lonelygirl15 itself. Featuring it would basically be nothing more than a way to publicise this not very well-known fanfic... but in order to understand LL you'd have to be someone who has been watching GC and presumably at least some of her hoard of additional characters, and in order to be a GC watcher you already would have had to be an OpAphid follower. It's just far too specific. There are other fanfics (for example LO as previously mentioned) which are level one spin-offs, all you need to know is lonelygirl itself to follow it, while LL is like at least three levels down from that (4th degree or so- I just made that term up.) Also I know you've been improving the article, but too many edits! The past 50 edits are like 95% just to this page. 71.224.243.78 13:58, 26 January 2007 (CST)

Sorry for wanting to edit the page. And I used preview.

Sorry for the inconvenience, there. Just trying to be as informative as we can with the page. Unfortunately, information comes in at an unseemly rate, at times. I apologize once again for the disturbance. I and my colleagues take all your comments and criticisms with a grain of salt. Hopefully, there will no longer be any other problems as such.

I am very much against the use of this as a featured article because doing so would seem to endorse their content to the average viewer. The fact that they are trying to jack the cassie concept could just lead to more confusion with the newbies with regards to cassie. We only now have about what? 4 of them? Especially now that there is more evidence that CiW is related to Alli D's crew...thats Nikki B's real name. In other words there is more evidence than ever that CiW is canon. I am all for promoting fan produced content I just don't think that LadyLazurus has garnered enough of their own Mojo to warrant the attention. Additionally, I don't see them as being particularly supportive of others outside of their arc. I know they are related but I would be more comfortable with Guillotine Calamity being featured. I haven't been keeping up with everthing but I would nix this suggestion as well if Sister's immediate vids deal with the cassie concept. Additionally I am not fond of nomimations originating from an IP address. Also, I think the nomination should come from someone other than the PM or someone intimately involved with the project. It's one thing to work on the page yourself..ehem..cause if you don't it often won't get done..but it's another to nominate your own work for a spotlight. This leaves the article not very neutral which in this case because of the cassie concept I say absolutely not to the featuring. I mean heck..they nominated it and then did about 50 edits to the page...kinda backwards if you ask me. Someone just wants some promotion for promotion sake. Also, sign your freaking posts. Any other questions? --LordGreystoke422 13:02, 28 January 2007 (CST)
