Ducktales nom - I'd be really confused if it was combined with any other canon since it's its own thing.

Not the nominator, but I would second that Ducktales (2017) is a separate thing, as another Ducktales fan.

There is a ton of intense debate online about the degree to which Ducktales crosses over with various other Disney properties, but I think it's generally agreed that the Duckverse (in which Ducktales takes place) in general is its own thing, separate from other Disney properties. And the 2017 Ducktales reboot in particular is a different thing from earlier incarnations of the Duckverse, including the original Ducktales. Major characters have different backstories and different character traits and character designs, and some characters only occur in one version of the show.

For example: Webby underwent a total personality reboot and character redesign, with a lot of new interests and skills her original never had. Lena, her best friend, only exists in the 2017 universe. Mrs. Beakley wasn't (as far as I recall) a former secret agent in the original universe, and I think her spy nemesis, Black Heron, is also original to the 2017 universe... and so on.

Thank you for jumping in, I was just about to hit post on a comment asking for more information so this is perfect. I'm mostly only familiar with the big name movies like Frozen or Beauty and the Beast, so input on the best way to split Disney is fantastic and it sounds like All Media Types isn't best for Disney anymore. Is this a better split?

Disney - All Media Types
Descendents
Ducktales*

*Should it just be Ducktales 2017? Or we do need two Ducktales tags? The reboot definitely sounds like a different thing on its own, but the degree of difference between early Ducktales and the rest of Disney may be important for whether we roll early Ducktales into AMT.

If anyone passing by thinks we should be aware of other shared-universe variations for Disney before they nominate or before we reach their existing nominations in the queue, please jump on in!

Haha, happy to help!

The "what is the Duckverse" question goes down a long, long fannish rabbit hole. There are other continuity splits (e.g. getting into the original comics canons and if/when those universes diverge) but realistically, I think most of the femslashable characters are in the more recent works.

It seems like Disney's official line is that Duckverse is part of the Mickey Mouse verse, but most Duckverse fans disagree with that, so it really could go either way? I think the two tacts you could take would be separating as:

-Disney AMT (excluding all Duckverse)
-Disney Duckverse AMT (original Ducktales, Darkwing Duck, Uncle Scrooge comics, etc.)
-Ducktales (2017)

Or:

-Disney AMT (including all non-2017 Duckverse)
-Ducktales (2017)

That being said, I'm not in the original comics fandoms, so I'd defer to other people if anyone is thinking of nominating characters from there specifically.

I'm not in non-duck Disney fandoms or Descendents, so I don't have useful thoughts on those.

Okay, given we take word of god type information from creators into account when relevant, I'm going to lean towards the second grouping for simplicity sake for now. I don't think I've noticed Ducktales in the queue other than for 2017 at this point either, so it might be an irrelevant point if nobody nominates earlier Ducktales anyway.

Thank you again for the help!

If anyone who is in Ducktales fandom or plans to nominate non-2017 Ducktales characters wants to weigh in with rabbit hole details, please feel free to and we can discuss/adjust as we go if it's needed.
