Hikaru no Go.... examples?

There is a fannish wiki called Fanlore, where although fans are welcome to edit any time of the year, they have a special event running this month, Stub September where the goal is to expand existing articles.


Some of the pages they've identified as requiring more work are the

http://fanlore.org/wiki/Category:Stubs - stubs pages which are very short and need more information (there are over 1800!)
http://fanlore.org/wiki/Category:Examples_Wanted - pages where the articles themselves are considered alright, but the fanwork examples such as say fanfiction that demonstrates what the article is talking about are... lacking. Either in quantity of examples or diversity of examples.

I thought that it might be an interesting challenge for us to try and insert as many Hikaru no Go examples into the wiki as possible, or rec lists that feature Hikaru no Go works, etc, etc. :D


Additionally, I noticed on the Hikaru no Go fan page, that it could possibly use more background information, and that there are some pages that could use creation:

Thanks for picking up the ball on this idea! Yeah, that Hikago page could use more work...I'm wondering if we should make pages for "classic" fics ("A Resolution of Territory" currently is the only Hikago fic that has its own page) and add Hikago fic examples to the pages for tropes.

Heh, well, you can blame me since I was the only person really making any substantial edits to the page. I did put in a cached link to the Hikagoyaoi forums because I was on those (that wasn't even mentioned before I started working on the page) but I didn't really touch any of the other forums and can't speak about them. (I vaguely remember Toriyama World forums? But it was mostly Hikagoyaoi and FF.net for me, pre-LJ.)
