На tarjaturunen.com опубликовали новость о решении сосзать единый официальный фан-клуб Тарьи Турунен.

Due to the many requests we got from people worldwide for officialisation of their fanclubs or their wishes to create one in their city or country, Tarja decided to create an international Official Fanclub.

The club is called Winter Storm Official Fan Club and the plan is to have a separate official fanclub in each country that organizes its own activites. Additionally, there will be a central organisation that oversees and coordinates all the different international branches.

To make this project we will need your help. We would like to ask everybodywho is already running a fanclub in his/her country or is planning to create one to contact us to melanie-surma@voices-of-enchantment.com

The criteria for each club are as follows
A mere website is not a fanclub. So if youґre already running a website the fanclub area has to be clearly separate from the website and recognizable as a fanclub having a communication platform for members only, maybe a forum or a blog. But something that allows members of the club to communicate with each other, organize meetings, etc.
There should exist a news area, where all news just concerning the club are added like meeting dates, new merchandize, contests, etc.
There should exist a memberґs area with infos like number of members, new members, maybe also names/nicks, a photo and a short introduction text from each member.
The news section and memberґs area of the club should be bilingual with an English version also available besides your native language in order for us to be able to read it.

So if youґre about to create a fanclub in your country please take these criteria into account from the very beginning. The already existing clubs also should make the respective changes to make their club meet these criteria. Any further additions to your fanclub platform are up to you.

If there are more than one fanclub in one country, we would ask you to get in touch with each other and merge your clubs into just one.

After we recognize a new club, there will be a probation time of 6 month before we will officialize the respective club. This is mainly to see if the club is active and working also over a longer period of time and if the respective presidents are really involved in what theyґre doing. Because as mentioned before, each club has to organize itself and keep itself running; the central organization wonґt do this for you.

As soon as a club has become official it will be integrated in the Winter Storm Official Fan Club and also will have the same name, like for example "Winter Storm Italy", "Winter Storm Argentina", etc.

Websites linked to a certain fanclub can keep their names and domains.

We would like to stress, that being a member of one of the official clubs does not mean that you are automatically given the chance to meet Tarja. But there will be many features for the members like special merchandize, contests, promotion in their respective countries, etc. The central organization will keep the different clubs informed about all news and activities.

If you have any ideas to contribute to the organisation of the fan club, we would like to hear them.

Kisses,
Melanie

Извините, что без перевода. Надеюсь, что и так все понятно.
Общий смысл в том, что очень много людей из разных стран просили сделать официальный фан-клуб и Тарья решила создать международный официальный фан-клуб. Будет единый главный центр и по оф фан-клубу в стране, где есть сайты о Тарьи. И т.д.
