Give us all your links!

Hi, everyone!

We thought it would be useful to create a resource page for people in Guardian fandom. We're not talking fanworks - but more things like [personal profile] galaxysoup's episode guide, the original episode titles, translation aids, subtitling aids, Guardian-related content on other websites, related media, actor information, and all that good stuff.

How do you find what you need? Share your tips, tricks and links!

(We'll have a separate post for harder-to-find fanworks such as non-AO3 fic, vids, picspams and icons at a later date.)

Also, while we have you here, a reminder/invitation to spread the news of this comm. We're thrilled to see so many of you here and people posting! It would be a shame if potential followers/members couldn't find us. (And neither of us are on tumblr, so if someone could spread the word there, that would be fantastic!) There's a graphic and text in this post to make it easy.

FTR, I was talking about this with my partner, and he claimed "glaive" is just another word for sword. The dictionary agrees with him, but wikipedia thinks a glaive is a polearm (which is a category that includes pudao). Argh!

Hmm. The plot thickens. Well, if I image search glaive, I see more of something that looks like Shen Wei's weapon, and also when I crowdsourced it on Twitter, a few people insta-responded "glaive." So I think maybe glaive is ok, but possibly pudao is more accurate. We need a Chinese weapons specialist in the fandom!
