Can I temporarily hide a story?

  1. I don't know how many people have seen. I've been rewriting the Harry Potter books in CMNF style. Unfortunately, it's turned into quite the copy-paste job and it's probably a copyright violation, which somebody rightly pointed out. Is there a way to remove the story from public viewing without deleting it entirely while I fix the damage?

    Chapters that are deleted can be restored within 7 days.
    After a chapter is restored, it will be back in draft mode. (The same as "save as draft")
    To delete a whole branch, you need to start at the end of it and work toward the beginning.

    Simply rewording original content or changing words won't work to avoid the content being subject to the plagiarism rule. It might be enough to reuse a single sentence, copy the idea of a paragraph or loosely reiterate a whole story for it to be considered plagiarism.

    Please note that all characters need to be at least 18 years old to be depicted in an erotic context. (E.g. being around while another character is naked.)
    (Fanfiction with characters who are canonically underage, must additionally include the Fanfiction note according to the rules.)
