The criticisms of H/W might be pretty fertile ground actually :) Though I suspect that criticisms in print, as opposed to eg. some random person posting on LJ, would be more suitable for the purpose. I would love to see some of the fallout from "Watson was a woman" too ... I presume there were (what's the manly version of pearl-clutching?) letters to the editor of the BSJ or whatever back when that came out.
If you have non-fiction writings that genuinely consider queer interpretations: POST THEM OMG. Got anything from the Sherlockian journal side of things? We're seriously short of that around here. I need to hit up the library when I get home from my current travels and see what I can find.
I'd love to see the fanfic sorted by canonical reference too. Someone did this for one of my other book fandoms (the Aubrey-Maturin series) and it's fantastic.
