These are recommendations made by [[Troper]]s for ''[[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}]]'' [[Fanfic]]s, all of which have been signed. After a few samples, you will be able to judge whether you might be interested in a certain 'fic, based on who recommended it. Authors of fics are ''not permitted'' to recommend their own fics; an author [[The Shill|shilling]] his own work via a recommendation he wrote himself lacks the independent point of view which gives a recommendation any value at all; it is also a level of self-promotion that we do not permit at All The Tropes.
 
Feel free to add a fanficrecommendation of your own to the list, but remember to use the template found below. Make sure you sign your recommendation! ''No-name recommendations may be deleted at other tropers' leisure.'' Do warn when a fanfic includes sexual situations.<ref>please note this includes all sexual activity, not just homosexual or bisexual, including het.</ref> Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, [[Shipping]] is [[Serious Business]]. Likewise, warn if it may head into [[Better Than Canon|non-canon]] territory.
 
Discussion of the recommendation is welcome on the discussion page. As such discussion is important, do remember to add the discussion page to the watchlist, if need be.
