New Genre Request: Reviewing...and Vampire?
There's a large amount of items that people put out there to help other members with their reviewing and that go over different members' reviewing methods. Then there's reviewing groups and reviewing contests and, I'm sure, a whole load of other things I'm forgetting that would benefit from having "Reviewing" as one of the genres.

On the flip side, when I want to take a look at all the items that have to do with reviewing, it'd be awesome to be able to search by this genre. (True, I can do a Writing.com search for "Review" and get a lot of stuff, but there can be quite a gap between an item that prompts users to fill in "Reviewing" as a genre and those that fill it in as a key word or part of their title or description. Yeah?)

It seems weird to me this isn't already a genre, with some of the others floating around. And hey, while we're at it, how you gonna have a "Vampire Gothic" merit badge and no "Vampire" genre? Ay? Now that's a genre I'd like to search by, because there are so many vampire stories (really good vampire stories) around there that do not pop up in a WDC search for "vampire."

Both of these seem to me like genre requests that would have been made in the past, so if they have and they were decided against, I apologize for bringing it up again.

Oh, and by the way, Thanks for WDC Lite! My browser is finicky and couldn't handle some of the new features---it'd freeze and various windows would stick---but "Lite" works perfectly!
