I just don't want to put the recs on the links page, since it could quickly overwhelm the page (see BBaBB).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My reflex is that the recommended fanfiction should point to rec pages or to archives.
I agree. Pointing to the stories themselves isn't really a good idea -- links change, etc. And, yes, the list could become far too long for the purposes of the Buffista Links page.
Y'know, I could maintain a recs page if we wanted to have one.
Snerk. And here I thought I was the one who continually volunteered for insanely huge projects. There's the site design, deciding what content to present and how to present it, chasing down umpteen-bajillion dead links when people move or redesign their site structure...
I'd like to mention that although I will be attempting to learn PHP/MySQL, that doesn't necessarily mean I'll be any good at it. And even if I am, I kind of have way too many website projects to be considered reliable ita-backup. Unless I finally figure out how to get by without sleeping.

To individual stories there you mean? Because a list of archives isn't really that helpful, to me anyway, but individual story recs would be.

I'm trying to get away from (on the links page, anyway) from linking to individual stories, because of sheer volume. So I think there should be a fan fiction section that points to recs and archives.

On the links page, absolutely. But if we're to have an actual recs page (and I'd be glad to assist with the upkeep, btw) I'd like to see individual stories.
