That's great! I see that you made how-to a sub-category of DIY and the added sub-categories to how-to, but I don't know how you did it.<br />
<br />
:I just added the Category tags to the Category pages that already exist-- the wiki automatically classifies them as "sub-categories." :)<br />
<br />
::[[User:Quasifesto]], looks like you actually did the same thing yourself on [[:Category:French Zinesters]] except that the subcategory is the same as the original Category.<br />

<div>'''Slanted''' was a fanzine from the Washington, D.C. area that was published by John Davis from Fall 1993 to Spring 1995. <br />
<br />
The focus, especially in early issues, was almost exclusively on punk and indie bands from the D.C. scene. Primarily written by its editor, a teenage John Davis, who went on to play in the bands Q And Not U, Georgie James, and Title Tracks, ''Slanted'' generally consisted of interviews, record reviews, concert reviews, and a D.C. scene report. Early issues included poetry and short fiction, but those were discontinued as the focus shifted solely to music. Publication of ''Slanted'' ceased in Spring 1995, but Davis began work on a new fanzine called [[Held Like Sound]], which released its first issue in Fall 1996.<br />
<br />
===Issues===<br />
# Fall 1993 - Interviews with Fugazi and WGNS Studios<br />
# Winter 1994 - Interviews with Jawbox, Velocity Girl, Holy Rollers, and Severin<br />
# Spring 1994 - Interviews with Tsunami, Slant 6, Spinanes, and Las Mordidas<br />
# Summer 1994 - Interviews with Bratmobile, Pitchblende, Jawbreaker, and The Townies<br />
# Fall 1994 - Interviews with Fugazi, Edsel, Your Majesty, Sideshow, Tuscadero, and The Make*Up<br />
# Spring 1995 - Interviews with Heartworms, Avail, Pet UFO, Sinkhole, Thirsty, Neptune's Daughter<br />

'''Guide to Dating Gangsters vol. 1''' is a zine released by [[Vice Versa Press]] in December 2011.<br />
<br />
''Vice Versa Press'' is an independently run, DIY publisher and printmaking entity.<br />
<br />

<br />
<blockquote>"Vice Versa offers up a stolen-chocolate-bar-and-a-six-pack style luv guide - not just to gangsters but to practically any subculture with an ounce of stamina in the badass department.

<br />
<blockquote> "...Just because you're a Chicano functioning in your own world and by a different set of values and rules doesn't make you a "gangster" unless you grew up with the movie "Blood In, Blood Out" as your frame of reference..."<br />

<br />
'''Alex Wrekk''' (born June 19, 1977) is a [[zinester]] from [[Portland]], OR. <br />
<br />
Alex Wrekk is the pen name of the creator of [[Brainscan]] [[Zine]], and the book [[Stolen Sharpie Revolution|Stolen Sharpie Revolution: a DIY resource for zines and zine culture]] as well as a zine [http://www.stolensharpierevolution.org resource website]. Alex Wrekk is a founder and continued organizer for the [[Portland Zine Symposium]], runs the online and brick and mortar zine and button shop [[Portland Button Works]], founded July as [[International Zine Month]], hosts [[Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Zine Podcast]], is the captain of [[Etsy Team Zine]], and sings for the zine themed band [[Copy Scams]].<br />
<br />
Wrekk was born in Houston, Texas, where she lived for the first nine years of life, and then moved to Greensboro, North Carolina with her family for 9 months. After that they moved to Salt Lake City, Utah, when she was 10. Later in High School she started reading zines and thinking of creating her own. Alex left Salt Lake City for Portland, Oregon in 1999.<br />
<br />
Wrekk was first introduced to free zines that she would pick up at record stores. In high school she had a boyfriend whose father collected zines. She would borrow zines from him. Alex got more involved with zines after meeting some kids in the midwest on a church youth trip in the mid '90's. Her early influences include zines like [[Bad Art]], [[Then She Deflated]] and [[Shelf Life]] . From there she and her sister, [[Webly Bowles]], created their first zine [[Fun in a Bucket]] in 1995 and were part of the small zine community in Salt Lake City, Utah along with such zines as [[Hat]], [[Failed Jedi]], [[Maybrick's Diary]], [[Hemopheliac's Papercut]], and [[Lunchroom]]. In 1997 Alex was the "merch girl" for the band Homesick and ran a small zine distro on the side to a largely disinterested crowd at shows where she carried local zines as well as out of state zines like [[Cometbus]] and [[A Punk Kid Walks Into A Bar]].<br />
<br />
For the most part Salt Lake City lacked interest, knowledge and respect of zines, although Salt Lake City was one of the first public libraries with a zine collection. Wrekk looked mainly to pen pals for other zines and inspiration. She later broke away from the silliness of [[Fun in a Bucket]] and started her own zine, [[Brainscan]] in 1997, that was more reflective and thoughtful than Fun in a Bucket. <br />
<br />
In 1999 Alex moved to Portland, Oregon to be closer to where her sister, Webly, went to college. She also already knew some zine penpals like Antonio and [[Zack Hyde]] of [[Three Sheets to the Wind]] and [[Beer Powered Bicycle]]. In Portland Wrekk found and contributed to the zine community as a founder and continuing to organize the annual [[Portland Zine Symposium]],volunteering at the [[Independent Publishing Resource Center]] and the creative reuse shop S.C.R.A.P.<br />
<br />
Alex Wrekk met [[Joe Biel]] as a pen pal in the late '90s. Wrekk invited Biel to move to Portland when his house burned down. Wrekk started helping Biel with his record and zine distro, [[Microcosm Publishing]], out of their home in 1999. In 2000 Alex acquired a " button machine and started to make custom buttons through [[Microcosm Publishing]]. After many years of free labor Alex was finally paid for her work at Microcosm in 2003. Over the years Microcosm grew and changed, in large part thanks to the original [[zines]] and books they were publishing, including Wrekk's own successful book [[Stolen Sharpie Revolution]] a DIY zine resource.<br />
<br />
Alex left [[Microcosm Publishing]] and divorced [[Joe Biel]] in 2006. When she started making 1 inch and 1.25" custom buttons as well as her catalog buttons and magnets, zines, and craft roasted coffee through a new site at [Small World Buttons][http://www.smallworldbuttons.com] and has an [Etsy Shop][http://brainscan.etsy.com]].<br />
<br />
In 2006 [[Alan Lastufka]] created a Wikipedia page for Alex Wrekk. After a few months the page for Alex Wrekk was declared not notable and was removed. This was the impetus for Alan to create ZineWiki as a way to document zine history. Since then a new page was created and has been declared notable. [Alex Wrekk on Wikipedia][http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Wrekk] <br />
<br />
Currently Alex is working on the 5th printing of her book [[Stolen Sharpie Revolution]] has spear headed the campaign to make July [[International Zine Month]] and started a zine podcast with [[Marc Parker]] entitled [[Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Zine Podcast]]. The Current co-host of Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Zine Pod cast is [[Derek Neuland]] whom Alex has opened [[Portland Button Works]] [http://www.portlandbuttonworks.com]. Portland Button Works is an online and brick and mortar shop in Portland,Oregon that is a zine distro and zine store that also specializes in custom buttons.<br />
<br />
[[Derek Neuland]] left [[Portland Button Works]] in October of 2012.<br />
