Decided to start on my mdzs fic project and WHY are there house MD fics on the last page and also fics dated 1950-

this is so cool, I can't wait for the results! What are the datapoints? Unless it's a surprise

yilinglaopo.bsky.social•152 days ago

Not at all! Right now they're
-Pairings
-Adaptations
-Characters
-Date posted
-Language
-Pairing type (mlm, wlw, etc)
-Rating
-Type of fic

Editing as i go!
(9th datapoint is just the link lmao so its more like 8 atm)

interesting! Do you want to see what the "trends" were throughout time?

yilinglaopo.bsky.social•152 days ago

Yea exactly! And if there are any possible correlations between adaptations and trends, etc etc

For the english fics ill also do more in depth analyses for data that isnt tagged, like if people use demonic cultivation vs. ghost cultivation(or similar) and such

I am very mentally good yes

This sounds really interesting to me, especially because lately I have been thinking that when I read a fic I can sort of tell if it is a recent one or an older one. But I am not exactly sure how. Maybe it's the tags/themes in the fics? The language used (e.g. more lyrical vs. more efficient prose)

yilinglaopo.bsky.social•152 days ago

Yea! I feel like theres been a shift in the fic space recently(relatively) so im literarily fact checking myself shshshsh

gusufan.bsky.social•152 days ago

Maybe some AUs/ tropes were more popular in the past vs. now. But I have definitely been able to sense a trend, so I am very curious about your results, whatever data and classification you end up using.
