User profiles and transformative works policies

[sophinisba]

Greetings, AO3 enthusiasts! Last night I made a post encouraging people to fill out their user profiles. In particular, as someone interested in making podfic, I'd love it if more people would put up their contact information and a statement about remixes, podfics, art, and other fanworks inspired by their work.

Thanks for posting this--somehow I completely missed the fact that we could write a profile. *facepalm*

Same here. Also, tbh, I had no idea what I'd've put in such a profile, but t&c on repurposing fanworks as, e.g., podfic, is a perfect use.

A lot of people use them for a "Yes, it's really me" statement: listing fandoms they've been in or what their DW/LJ accounts are and that kind of thing.

I like the idea of adding podfic policies.
