Examples

“The widespread interfandom jargon of one's fic being "Jossed" (or invalidated by new canon material, a term derived from Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon), or for elements of a still-incomplete fanfic to be negated or rendered implausible by the development of the canon text, speaks to the creative stakes in authoring fan texts that strive for fidelity.”
“Their [Benedict Cumberbatch fans'] reception of, and engagement with, his portrayal as Richard III through playful fan practices demonstrates the interfandom crossover.”
“Is Game of Thrones's Daenerys Targaryen Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, or Slytherin? […] Questions like⟳ these are raised in YouTube videos and on Reddit threads and Tumblr blogs as online interfandom communities use⟳ the Hogwarts Houses from J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series (1997–2007) to discuss⟳ and interpret⟳ characters, emphasizing the series' continuing relevance as it intersects with other popular fandoms.”
