The project proposed removing from all LCSH and CYAC subject headings for genres the cross-references consisting of a topic with a form subdivision–fiction; juvenile fiction; poetry; juvenile poetry; comic books, strips, etc.; drama; juvenile drama; video games; etc. This fixed the long-standing issue where those cross-references flipped to the heading for a genre instead; an example being "Detectives $v Fiction," that flipped to "Detective and mystery stories" instead of being a valid string to search for fiction about detectives.
