More Wrangling, More Clarifications  
The nominations process is ongoing. As of today, you all have five days to submit all of your nominations. So far, so good, despite a number of bumps that have since been smoothed. The tag set is still here. If you encounter errors, wandering tags, and the like, or if you have a question that needs an answer (especially if it did not get addressed at one of the previous posts; there have been a ton of comments), please start commenting here, and one of us will get back to you as soon as we are able. Otherwise, keep nominating that femslash.

EDIT – Tag migration between the two different versions of BanG Dream! fandom has already been brought to my attention, and that will be addressed on my next pass through the tag set.

Irisviel is one character and Saber | Arturia is the other, yes.

I understand the need to ask the nominators what they meant and I am not at all saying you should just take my word for it and not do that, but I have to say that as someone familiar with the fandom I think it's highly unlikely that, if someone did want a selfcest threesome, they would nominate it as Saber/Arturia/Irisviel. Saber and Arturia aren't separate personas, one's just an alias. It very, very much looks to me like two people meant to nominate the same two-person pairing, but one piped it and one didn't.

Thanks for the confirmation!

And sorry, my comment was probably confusing because I'm trying to shorthand things while writing on an iPad. I didn't mean they might be trying to nominate the alias as a separate person, that was unclear of me. What I think has happened is the second Irisviel and the Saber have been switched (so the middle should actually be Arturius | Saber as a single complete character tag) but I don't want to assume AO3 is glitching consistently on two vs three person tags. We've had multiple tags with Name | Name where half of what should one tag seems to be getting switched with someone else, it's starting to get distinctive.

For the record, that unusual threesome also popped up during tag sorting last year, so I think it's been hiding in the Fate tags for quite some time.

EDIT – ... which means I should've caught it when it popped up again, but that's what happens when pairings have lots of "bar" (|) names.
