It occurs to me there are those of us that occasionally have the story already, or at least part of it, and want to know where currently located and if there was more written.
This is different from a traditional search thread where normally one is either looking for a specific story and no link and incomplete or ill remembered information, or looking for stories meeting a vague category or such.
This is in effect what I'm calling an 'Reverse' search request, as I *already* have the stories below, but *do not* have the links or in a few cases the names of the authors (those are listed as by 'Unknown').
I thought I'd throw these out here and see if anyone can find the links. Consider it a challenge.
If a link cannot be provided and if the author is listed as 'Unknown' I would not mind at least knowing who the author was if you know of them and I do not.

RANMA 'A Thin Line of Red' by Palin - [Status=Single File] - [Last Dld=4/13/2004] - [Size=9kb] - [Chapters=1]
- [Description] A extreme angst story. Ranma was secretly having a breakdown and mood swings, and would sometimes cut him/her self in the bathroom. Nabiki discovers, and teams up with Cologne to get Ranma away.
- UPDATE: Author page found but not story.
- [Description] Ranma fell into spring of drowned phoenix, is semi-telepathic, and engaged to Nabiki.
- [Description] Ranma has Voices/Talents in his head, directing his actions and training him. Engaged to Nabiki in this one.
- UPDATE: Author page found but not story.
- [Description] Ranma leaves a farewell parting gift, a tape, detailing his thoughts and feelings to the NWC. Not bad, but felt off in their easy acceptance of it.
- [Description] Akane murdered just before Ranma's arrival, though all but Nabiki think she is merely taken. Akane haunts the Dojo and can talk to Ranma.
- [Description] Ranma is engaged to Nabiki, and he has demons trapped in him that state will take over when he is 19. Genma is dead in this one.
- [Description] Short chapters. Ranma gets a guardian angel, and learns others have also been influenced by paranormal beings into making his life hell.
- [Description] Interesting story, but only so-so written. I enjoyed it though. Ranma and Ranko are split early on, with the cursed soul and person taking Ranko's body, but there is a problem, unless cured within a time limit, Ranko is doomed to die.
- [Description] I've no clue where I got this one from, it is two downloaded Word documents though. Ranma/Akane argue, with Akane stating she wished he had been a girl. Ranma for revenge gets the idea of deliberately acting like a girl based on her statement. Even goes to Nodoka for 'Girl Lessons'.
- [Description] An interesting Ranma/Nabiki piece but not a match. They agree to be friends, and he helps her to get dates.
- [Description] A revenge story of sorts. Ranma, having had his pictures taken one too many times, gets revenge by doing it to Nabiki and posting them. This was originally on some forum I came across in passing long ago that eventually went under.
- UPDATE: Story found.
- [Description] Very short chapters. Basically, thanks to a bug in heaven, Ranma's curse is acting weird, now the personality shifts with the change.
- [Description] A short read, barely past the intro in fact. Ranma is not smart, but more wise to the ways of the world, thus as like the title.
- UPDATE: Author page found but not story.
- [Description] Ranma's boy side was killed by an assassin hired by Kuno, so now is stuck as a girl.
- [Description] This was a interesting story, but I've no clue if there was more. It paints a disturbing picture of why she is so serene. I had always wondered how the author was going to resolve the situation that was set up in the chapter.
- [Description] A Ranma/Slayers/Tenchi crossover. A bit crudely written and rushed plot. Lina is Ranma's sister and taken to the Slayers world at a young age to train since Genma refused to train her. She returns, and is detected by Washu.
- [Description] A Ranma/NGE crossover. Ranma presumed dead, and a young boy trained by Cologne and others is selected to be a pilot. Pretty well written, but only the intro chapter up. It was only on FanFiction.NET for around 3 weeks before removal.
- [Description] A Ranma/Mara story. short chapters, but interesting, one of the first Mara matches with Ranma I read. After a joint fight with them against another demon, Ranma dies to be reincarnated and Mara severely injured.
- [Description] A Nabiki/Himura match, and a Ranma/Kenshin fusion of sorts.
- [Description] Ranma has nightmares, uses attacks like Saturn's in them, and dreams of a girl with short hair, even painted her. He is living on his own in a tiny apartment in this. Minako and Usagi transfer to Furinkan. IIRC, this was on MediaMiner.
- [Description] This author was far more famous for his Bubblegum Disaster Story. Ranma and another are pulled from their respective worlds into the aftermath of the attack on Beryls fortress in the arctic.
- [Description] This was on anifics I think. Merely a single scene. Ranma had previously moved into the Masaki house and gotten the attention of Seto. Tired of Washu's antics, he tells her off, Tenchi through misunderstanding thinks Ranma is going to sleep with her though.
- [Description] Cat people slavers from Catrl-Catrl kidnap Ranma and Ryoga during their original bread feud and take them off planet. Ranma ends up being asked to join the galaxy police. This is not really a GXP crossover though, as it has no characters from that series.
- [Description] A mere teaser, but Ranma and Techi are Internet chat buddies in this. Through Washu, they decide to switch.
- [Description] An interesting work, and the only one I'm aware of in the Valdemare universe crossing with Ranma. This was on a authors home page, and later even Internet Archive had no more copies. It could have used a lot of editing, but a good story. I believe it was removed due to author not liking her works used in fan fiction.
- [Description] Another Ranma kicked out due to being a mutant. A bit high handed on the morals, and making Ranma look more virtuous, but if you can get past that, it was not a half bad read.
