What is eligible?

Hi, update: We want you to be as specific as possible in choosing your fairy tale for the tagset as per the polite request of the wranglers. Sorry for the change in policy!
If your story doesn't have acommon canonical name, choose something descriptive (Medusa and Athena (Greek Myth) for example) and go with that. If you're stuck, consult a mod for help.
What else should I be aware of?
Ideally the story you want fic of should be available freely and legally online. In some cases, a version translated to English may not be available so please contact the mods to work out special cases like that. This is to make the exchange as accessible as possible!
