AO3 won the 2019 Hugo Award for Best Related Work!
Here’s the speech given by Naomi Novik when the award was accepted:

All fanwork, from fanfic to vids to fanart to podfic, centers the idea that art happens not in isolation but in community. And that is true of the AO3 itself. We’re up here accepting, but only on behalf of literally thousands of volunteers and millions of users, all of whom have come together and built this thriving home for fandom, a nonprofit and non-commercial community space built entirely by volunteer labor and user donations, on the principle that we needed a place of our own that was not out to exploit its users but to serve them.
Even if I listed every founder, every builder, every tireless support staff member and translator and tag wrangler, if I named every last donor, all our hard work and contributions would mean nothing without the work of the fan creators who share their work freely with other fans, and the fans who read their stories and view their art and comment and share bookmarks and give kudos to encourage them and nourish the community in their turn.
This Hugo will be joining the traveling exhibition that goes to each Worldcon, because it belongs to all of us. I would like to ask that we raise the lights and for all of you who feel a part of our community stand up for a moment and share in this with us.

 Humans are ADAPTABLE. As FUCK. Just because
 something happens to a limb, or part of the body, or
 a sense, it doesn't actually mean anything. Loose a
 limb? Put a new one on. Broken bone split open the
 skin? Pop it back into place and stitch it up. Paralyzed/
 physically incapacitated? Wheelchair. Heart problems?
 Here's a new one. Or, even better, a ROBOT one. Blind?
 Well, who's to say we don't just outright develop
 echolocation? Humans are are amazing at adapting to
 situations that would totally ruin or kill any amount of
 other species
 Our adaptability and ingenuity in the application of
 tools and aides set us apart from other alien species,
 because who else, apart from stubborn, mad geniuses,
 would think 'right, something's broken beyond all repair?
 Or even gone completely? We can sort that out.
 "Right. So, you're telling me, that you lost BOTH of your
 legs in war, and instead of dying because you've lost
 half your body, you just... stuck new ones on?"
 "Basically, yeah. They're bio-mechanical and
 detachable. Wanna see?"
 "Wait, you're paralyzed from the waist down? But surely
 that's enough of an excuse to... stop working? Rest?
 You're stuck in that wheeled contraption! Isn't that
 horrendously awkward and tiring?"
 "Stuck? Dude, if I didn't have a wheelchair, THEN I'd be
 stuck. It can be awkward, sure, when places don't have
 ramps and wide enough doors and stuff, but apart from
 that, the chair lets me... be free again. It allows me to
 move and be a contributing human being again. Just,
 yknow. I've got wheels instead of legs."
 "You're blind? Wait, if you can't see, then why are you on
 this ship? Our visually impaired never pass even the first
 level of clearance
 Well, I'm hardly a navigator, am I? I'm a translator, I
 don't need to see. I can speak five earth languages and
 seven alien languages, and I can get around perfectlyI
 fine, thank you very much. Besides, that's why l've got
 my cane
 "But... you can't see? How can you read?"
 "Braille, mate. Besides, nobody writes anymore. It's all
 audio or that brain transmission telepathy shit anyway.
 "Your crewmate appears to act differently to most other
 humans I've encountered?"
 "Oh, Alec? He's lovely. He's got this thing called
 Aspergers, and whilst there's nothing technically
 wrong with him, it just means he... he processes
 things differently to someone without it. He doesn't
 understand jokes or sarcasm or anything, but he's really
 kind, and has an amazing green thumb. He tends to the
 onboard gardens."
 Right, so I've tried to make a little bit of disability
 positivity in this little drabble here. If anything I've
 written here upsets anyone, or appears as incorrect, I
 apologize sincerely!

 Here's the question I always have with
 universal translators in sci-fi: how do
 they know when to stop translation?
 Like say an alien asks about deserts on
 earth, and the human lists "the sahara
 desert, gobi desert and kalahari desert"
 Alien: You just said "desert" six times.

 You could do it like Douglas Adams with some device that reads brainwaves (or
 whatever jargon you choose) and translates the intended meaning of the words
 according to the speaker. In this context, for instance, the speaker intends the
 word Sahara to mean the name of the place, so the translator would translate it
 accurately as Sahara Desert.
 I've thought about things like this before. Mostly about the common rip at ghost
 hunter shows and movies about how a x00 years old German castle has ghosts
 that speak perfect, crystal clear, modern English. My thoughts on a plausible
 explanation were that an apparition would not physically speak by causing
 vibrations in the air. Rather, consider the possibility that they instead push
 thoughts into the minds of those it interacts with causing them to experience the
 sensation of hearing and seeing them as a means to communicate
 Your brain receives thoughts of the meanings and concepts the being intends to
 convey. That's why you hear them in your native language, no matter what you
 speak or where you're at. This also comes with the bonus of explaining why
 proof is never found on audio or video recordings. The sights and sounds you
 perceive didn't actually physically happen. You could also reasonably argue that
 they'd still be able to interact with (push) physical objects with strong enough
 emotions through some means (depending on canon) while communicating in
 this manner by saying that expanding and contracting the air in such a way to
 create the sound of voice with intelligible words would require far too much
 precision and control
 ldk. It's fun stuff to think about.
