[edit] Archive History

In response to privilege wank in June 2009, where several of the Organization for Transformative Works supporters were getting mobbed for implying that being raped made you part of a privileged class and readers were unduly making excessive demands of writers to warn for rape, the archive announced on metafandom that An Archive of Our Own created a system by which stories archived there must have warnings or a warning that the author won't be providing warnings. [1] This was viewed by some corners of fandom as trivializing the situation and using privilege wank for traffic and attention.

[edit] Archive Funding

The archive is funded through donations provided to Organization for Transformative Works.

[edit] Archive Size

After two years of existence, the archive is smaller than FanLib when it closed. They have less then 5000 stories and fewer than 400 members.
