Maybe that can be another project (and excuse to eat more pizza) for you both!

All good! :D Tone via text is a bugger sometimes.

Oh yeah I agree with you, sorry! Was just saying what the data was reflecting and forgot to include that, my bad!

It's definitely odd that they're absent and it's not the case on ff.net at all as just looking at the filter for [Harry P./Hermione G.] shows multiple works with favs on the front page, some of which have thousands of favourites.

The data reflects favourited works rather than the quantity of works, which I agree is a bit of an unusual metric for the graphs question.

I wonder if data taken from other sites (such as ao3) would produce similar or different results for numbers of works tagged. Ffnet doesn't have the most useful pairing tags.

I don't think this necessarily means the most shipped with either. I looked out of interest and found 198 pages of works for harry/voldemort so that's a) a very high amount of favourites for a smaller number of works but b) a much smaller number of works published total than say Harry/Herminione (2.2k pages) or Draco (3.6k pages).

e: I was curious so looking at ff.net filtered to [Harry P/Hermione G.] has a total 12000~ favourites shown on one page of fanfiction alone. The data here is definitely a bit wonky.
