What do we do if we want to add a list of publications that a subject has contributed to, but several of those contributions were made under their real name? (The article, when opened in the edit window, contains a comment indicating the subject's real name is to be avoided.)--Higgs Raccoon 18:17, 6 November 2013 (EST)

I don't personally see an issue with such a list, including links. We might agree not to use their real name here, but the goal is primarily to prevent non-furs from finding out about the furry activities, not the reverse. --GreenReaper(talk) 19:00, 6 November 2013 (EST)
OK, let's say, in this case, the artist has contributed to a few issues of Gallery, and I want to include a supporting reference to the relevant artist page on the Gallery website. What text would you use in the wikifur reference?--Higgs Raccoon 19:10, 6 November 2013 (EST)
I'd mention the issue and the title of the work, and the page number if available. If you think it'd be confusing we could credit it to "Silent Red (under her real name)" or something similar. If the goal is to identify the work being talked about, that should be sufficient. --GreenReaper(talk) 19:28, 6 November 2013 (EST)
OK, I've noticed a further complication: In parallel with this article we have [[REDACTED]] (with both linking to the same story site of Mia's archive). What happens in this case? Should the article at the real-name be deleted?--Higgs Raccoon 18:36, 7 November 2013 (EST)
I would (and did) replace it with a redirect, like any other alias to the non-main name of a subject. I suggest that removing the name here would also be appropriate since it is the only link on this wiki to it, and otherwise Google is going to point here again. --GreenReaper(talk) 21:59, 7 November 2013 (EST)
