Rare Pairings vs. Non-Rare Pairings, Round Two
I've been noticing in some wishlists some pairings that are not rare, things such as Draco/Hermione. I'm not really sure how this is happening since we are called Rare Pair Shorts. I didn't think I needed to stress that your wishlists must consist of RARE PAIRS ONLY.
If your wishlist contains a non-rare pairing, I will tell you, and you will need to edit your wishlist accordingly.
However, all this did get me thinking. We have a list of things we consider non-rare and therefore not acceptable at this community, and over time we've been getting some questions about a few pairings. We the mods are starting to get iffy about a few of them ourselves, so we figured it might be best to put it to vote.
If you consider any of the following pairings RARE, mark YES. If you think they are NOT RARE, mark NO.
If there are any pairings you feel need to be ADDED to our list, write those in the text entry box. [ETA: THAT MEANS DON'T PUT DOWN PAIRINGS THAT ARE ALREADY ON OUR LIST.] If there are any pairings you feel need to be REMOVED from our list and have not been discussed in this post, please LEAVE A COMMENT.
Thanks for your help! :)

ETA: The poll has been fixed. ;)

619? That's almost 15 times more fic than Harry/Luna. Why would you consider this possibly rare?
As for Draco/Ginny, there are several active comms for it and it has a couple of websites hosting hundreds of fics dedicated specifically to D/G. I call "not rare."
