Also, what is the name used for these things used to avoid typing the same thing over and over again? e.g.

Code:
	status = $#fanficstatus;
	publisher = $publisher;
	ids = $identifiers;
	u = select(ids, 'url');
 	a = select(ids, 'ao3');
	f = select(ids, 'ffnet');
I don't think the "technique" of assigning to local variables to save typing (and usually processing time) has a name. If it does then I don't know it.
