Here is the section for the first data prompt post. For anyone who wants to help with the data scrape.
IMPORTANT: Make sure your provide a link to the prompt in the note section if you need to use that cell for any reason. This makes double checking possible mistakes easier.
Also, please list pairings in alphabetical order so "Foggy/Matt" instead of "Matt/Foggy".
I need more work with the mods to understand how we can help with Delicious. I'm just going to hope that the first prompt post has mostly already been input into that... thing.
Anyway, here's some information about how the spread sheet is set up and how to input data.
Prompt post #: This section is just for prompt post 1. But I do have a larger, much more laggy spreadsheet that includes ALL the prompt posts (except 6, I'm working on merging it).
Prompt Page #: This is the comment page. Each page of comments has twenty five prompts on it total. If you want to claim a page (agreeing to do all the prompts on one page) please select the section and comment on it. I'll give you a week, maybe a little more to fill out all the data points. If it's not done I'll email you about it to see if you're still working on it. If not, I'll delet the comment so other people know they can take over there.
Prompt #: I assigned all the prompts a number. There may be some mistakes in this, if there are please insert a row, fill out the data, but leave all the prompt number (prompt page, etc.) blank. Make a note about it in the notes cell including what prompt number came before the missing one.
PLEASE ASK FOR CLARIFICATION IF ANY OF THIS IS CONFUSING.
Date Posted: This will provide a lot of information about when the kinkmeme is active. (What times of the day are the most prompts made? When during the prompt post cycle is it most active (such as right when it opens, after a freeze)? And so on.) Please copy paste the whole date and time (leave of the (UCT)) from the comment title.
Main Pairing: The Pairing that is the focus of the story.
Main Character 1: A character in main pairing 1, or, if the prompt is not pairing focused, the character who the prompt is about.
Main Character's 2-3 provided because poly ships are a big thing here. If they are not relevant do not use them. If a prompt mentions OCs but the focus is still on characters in the show (such as parallel Matt with an blind OC without enhanced senses) Then Matt should be listed as the main character and the OC a side character. See a comment bellow this for more examples and if you are unsure about the call, mark it in the notes section and I will look over it.
Side Characters: The prompt mentions these characters but they are not central to the desired story. (Though they may appear more prominently in fills.) Any prompt with the wording "And Matt is helped by Claire or Karen" is specifying that Karen or Claire would be a side character.
Alternative Pairing: different From a side pairing. This is when a prompt is worded as "Matt/Foggy or Matt/Foggy/Karen" Matt/Foggy/Karen is the alternative pairing. Do not include fillers asking "would ship x be okay too?" only what is explicitly listed in the original prompt.
Side Paring 1: Super uncommon. I don't remember why I made spaces for it. It's when one pairing is the center of the prompt but another pairing is listed as being in the background. Such as, if the prompt is "characters a and b go on a double date with c and d" and the rest of the prompt talks all about a and b then c/d is the side pairing.
Kinks!: Lots of spots for these. Sensory deprivation comes up a lot. I'd like to see how much. So on. If the prompter gives a list of kinks they either like, or don't like, just ignore them. This is for kinks specifically mentioned in the body of the prompt. Bonus points are a gray area and make a note of it in the notes section.
Tropes!: Even just for funnzies I recommend looking up Tropes on fanlore. Although I don't think they make the distention between kinks and tropes like I do. A/B/O is a trope, knotting is a kink. Sex pollen is a trope. So on.
Cross Over Note what is being crossed over.
RPF Only write "yes" if it is an RPF prompt. If it is "no" leave it blank. That one prompt that is fanfiction of daredevil, that is, RPF in the daredevil universe, is a "no". Though very meta.
Polly Prompt Does the prompt list a polly (OT3 and OT+) as a main pairing, alternative pairing, or side pairing. If the note is for a pairing plus a voyeur make a note of it. I still don't know how I want to handle that. And if it's a threesome or gangbang (anything not implying a commitment) also make a note of that here. If it is both a gangbang and a polly ship then report it as "gangbang, yes".
Transcharacter: If a character is requested to be trans write their name in this spot. If there are more than two than in the section spot list the characters names separated by ",".
Disablity Bend: If the prompt requests that a character be disabled and they are not disabled in that way in cannon put a "yes" in this spot, then a comma explaining. (blind or deaf Foggy, Bipolar anyone, so on.)
Repost : If it's a repost make a note of it.
Fill?: make a note of if it has a fill, even a mini fill.
Date Fill Posted self explanatory.
Date Data point taken Please also include the time. This will be important if I do decide I can do something useful with the data about fills. I might not be able to, but I haven't made up my mind if I just want to give up on it or not. After all, I've already brain stormed a bunch, and even if dreamwidth did have a good API there is no way I could take accurate data about fill posts.
Now that you have read all the rules and guild lines Here is the link to the spread sheet:
And finally, thank you so, so much for helping. Even if you just do one prompt. It means so much and it will be helping me out a lot. I'm so excited for all the data we'll have when this is done, and all the cool things we will be able to do with it!
I'd like to help but I'm confused on a couple points.
"Date Data point taken Please also include the time. This will be important if I do decide I can do something useful with the data about fills.

I'm not sure what you're asking for here. Do you want me to write down the date and time it is (in my timezone?) after I finish inputting a particular prompt on the spreadsheet? Should I include the timezone?
Also, for "Fill Post Date" do you want just the date that the fill was posted, or do you want the date and time?
And if a section doesn't apply to the prompt, say it's a gen prompt and all the pairing sections don't apply, do I leave those sections blank? Or should I put n/a or something similar?
1.) Date and time, in your time zone. Or in zulu time. But I'm an army brat so I'm used to having time like that. I'll convert them all to UTC later.
2.) For fill post data and I want a copy pasted time and date of when the first fill comment was posted. (Does this make sense? Your comment was posted on 2015-08-24 09:10 pm (UTC))
OP: I also went a head in filled in the first four, so if you want to read those prompts and see what they look like in the spread sheet it might help.

I was like "I'll fill it out all on my own!"
I started moving in to my dorm when the post opened. I'm not even done unpacking, and it's already at 16 pages.
Dude fuck. What is my life.

3.) Yes, do leave it blank.
Glad for your questions, hopes this clears it up.
