FicWad: fresh-picked original and fan fiction

HRT	Strange Math I was consolidating two chapters into a single chapter in the middle of a large, multi-chapter story, and noticed that this dropped the story rating from a five to a zero. Possibly this is a coding quirk that was not anticipated by the mods. It seems likely to discourage editing on the part of authors, however. Posted at 2007-05-21 11:35:19
Ithilwen	I know that if one deletes the chapters that had the numerical ratings, the number disappears but not the label. Posted at 2007-05-21 18:49:43
HRT	Actually, the chapter that got deleted didn't have any ratings at all. Readers had only rated the last chapter, which was left untouched. That's why this puzzles me. Posted at 2007-05-22 12:34:03
fairady	Is it possible that ratings are attached to the chapter numbers and not the actual fic chapter itself? I mean, lets say you have chapters 1, 2, and 3. 3 has a rating on it. You delete 2, so that the fic is not 1 and 3. But the site only sees it as 1 and 2 with 3 being gone. So, since the ratings are attached to 3 and 3 is gone, the ratings are gone as well. And if that makes any sense to anyone but myself, I'll be astonished. Posted at 2007-05-23 21:05:58
