Maybe someone (not me, because it sounds kind of boring) should go through Teaspoon and see what the numbers actually are.
Because, from my experience in 30+ fandoms, not once have I ever encountered a situation where only one pairing had the majority of the crappy fic. Now, maybe DW is this bizarre fandom where none of the normal rules apply, but I suspect not. Maybe every single Romana fan is wonderfully articulate and a fantastic writer, but since I've yet to meet any character who lacks their fans who can't spell, I also doubt that (also, I've actually met Romana fans who were quite the opposite).
And, as I mentioned, from my glances at the other DW pairings that I find intriguing (Doctor/Master; Doctor/Jack; Doctor/Jack/Rose), I found the percentages to be similar.
