Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.
Are you here to participate in a specific proposal? Click on the proposal tag (with the dark outline) to see only posts about that proposal and not all of the others that are in progress. Tags are at the bottom of each post.

- It's one of the most essential topics. A driver for attracting more people and presumably the topics with the largest fan group behind it!
- Think of all the Trekkies, StarWars'ler, LOTR, GOT, Firefly, Babylon5, Dragonlance, Marvel, and general cinema enthusiasts, movie lovers and movie scene identifiers, binge watchers and movie quote quizzers and ... do I need to go on? I did not even started with books and literature yet (Animes, Comic, Manga, Graphic Novels, Short Stories, Historical, ...).
- There has to be a haven for them.
- **Scope**
- * Everything that deals with the _consuming_, discussion or analysis of existing media
- * All kinds of topics revolving around cinema, movies, books, comics, anime, manga and stuff
- * All kinds of genres from Sci-Fi to RomCom
- **Not-Scope**

- **Who&Where**
- I wish I could say, they are already here. But without some bulletin-board-sized welcome button on the home screen, nobody will detect this place
- _Potentially_: see pitch section. Basically the whole world with internet access.
- **Additionals**
- * I thought about adding Movies&Literature together because of the similar nature of _consuming_ and not _creating_. But if there is for example a "Quiz" category this might confuse if this is for literature or movies only or both. Ultimately Movies&Literature might need to be split. Thus, advocating in creating them separately from the beginning.
- * The Movies&Literature would be a way to integrate SciFi&Fantasy into a broader frame
- * Sample Activities:

- * I discovered a book you need to read!
- * Nostalgia request identify old movie pls
- * How did they make the effects in X?
- * What is Cinemascope?
- * Picard or Kirk? Vote now
- * Will there be a new Twilight movie or book?
- * Can Darth Vader breathe underwater?
- * Quizzy! Today: Movies from the 60s.
- * Quote-Quiz: Name that movie from a quote
