With WIPs, works should be created for the challenge and complete in themselves (although works in linked series etc. are fine). So any unposted WIPs, or ones that have only had fragments posted, started v recently, or only been posted in rough/informally somewhere semi-private, anything like that - these are absolutely fine.
If the WIP has a sizeable proprtion of the whole posted in final form on AO3 (or similar), then it can't really count for this particular challenge. Ditto individual segments/chapters of a work can't count as fills in themselves - only the whole work.
I hope that makes sense? Where any cases are borderline, it's totally your call.
I hope that makes sense, and isn't too frustrating if your WIPs are already half-posted ones. (I felt sure I'd seen a comm specifically for finishing WIPs round here lately, and was going to link you in case it'd help - but I couldn't find one that had been dusted off in less than 10 years, so perhaps it was on tumblr, in which case, lol.)
