Nominations Clarifications, take two  
We have gotten the queue under control! There are a small handful (approximately five) fandoms stuck behind outstanding issues, but most of the straggling combined fandoms that were nominated incorrectly (eg. Thor instead of MCU, Supergirl instead of Arrowverse) have been corrected. If you were still wanting to check the tagset before entering your nominations, now is a good time to do so.

If anyone isn't the nominator but wants to weigh in on the below, please feel free! For issues that were also listed on the previous post, we will begin making best guesses in 24 hours to clear space in the queue.


Fandoms that may (still) require clarification or combination:
  • Hannibal. We've had a nomination for All Media Types. Are we correct in our assumption that Hannibal (TV) is separate and different from the other Hannibal universe(s), or should we combine under AMT? If we separate, what fandom tag should be used for Bedelia Du Maurier/Clarice Starling (or would it be a crossover between different versions of Hannibal?)

  • Fate/zero. Is this a shared universe prequel to Fate/stay night that should be combined under All Media Types? There is ongoing discussion here that you can join.

  • The Worst Witch. We have changed the fandom from All Media Types to Worst Witch (1998 TV), and moved the pairings already approved accordingly, based on feedback that the characters and backstory are different. If you're the nominator and disagree or want them under a different Worst Witch please let us know! If anyone wants to nominate other forms of Worst Witch, please drop us a comment explaining whether it's a shared universe or a separate version so we know which fandom tag best applies.

  • Tolkien. The current likely new split will be: The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit - J. R. R. Tolkien, and Middle Earth - Peter Jackson Movies. This will be the last call for input if anyone else wishes to jump into the discussion, otherwise we will begin approving under the above fandom tags in 24 hours.

  • Neon Genesis Evangelion . Makinami Mari Illustrious/Shikinami Asuka Langley has been moved to Rebuild for the moment. It has been suggested that we combine all Neon Genesis, however. Please pop into the comments below to discuss!


Pairings that may (still) require clarification:
  • Fallout, Desdemona/Glory. Most Fallout nominations are coming under individual titles. Can nominator(s) for the fandom weigh in on whether it's a shared universe, or do we need to assign this pairing (currently under all games) to a specific title? If the latter, which title does it belong to?

  • Fire Emblem, Degel | Kjelle/Serena | Severa. Most Fire Emblem nominations are also under individual titles. Ditto the question, do we need to combine or do we just need to know where to assign this?

  • ASOIAF/Game of Thrones. If anyone is missing pairings under either, please check the list on the last post and let us know.

  • Crossover. Can the nominators for Lara Croft/Diana (Wonder Woman), Aya | Amunet (Assassin's Creed)/Cleopatra VII of Egypt, and Trixie Belden/Nancy Drew, please clarify which Diana or Cleopatra or Nancy you intended, otherwise you'll be chancing matching on any version of those characters.

  • MCU/Crossover. Brunnhilde | Valkyrie/Jessica Jones came in under MCU, so we are assuming Netflix Jessica was intended. That pairing already exists in the crossover tagset, so if you want a different Jessica or Valkyrie please either let us know or update your nomination with clearer fandom indicators. Otherwise we will decline as a duplicate.

  • Marvel (Comics). Can the nominator of Carol Danvers/Jessica Drew or Kate Bishop/America Chavez please update their fandom tag or comment to tell us which Marvel Comics title they want. (If the nominator doesn't show, possible title options that may be intended would be very welcome input from any comics fans!)

  • Sailor Moon: can the nominator of Chibiusa/Tomoe Hotaru please confirm which fandom tag they wanted it under (Anime or Crystal/Manga)?


Additions/Changes to fandom combination rules:
  • Disney. Nominations should be made under Descendents, DuckTales 2017, Maleficent (2014), or Disney - All Media Types. If non-2017 DuckTales fans wish to discuss splitting from All Media Types, please drop us a comment or head here

  • Fallen London | Echo Bazaar. Sunless Seas and Sunless Skies should be nominated as part of Fallen London.

  • Fantastic Beasts. We combined with the canonical umbrella tag Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, drop us a comment if you wish to discuss it.

  • Castlevania. We have used the umbrella series tag for now, drop us a comment if you wish to discuss it or that's incorrect.

  • Dangan. Combine all nominations under Dangan Ronpa - All Media Types, including V3.

It was a duplicate of Tar-Míriel/Any Female Character(s) (Silm) which was already approved. I've noticed AO3 being slow to update the tagset this evening after I hit approve, so it might not have been showing a moment ago while you were looking.

If you're specifically wanting OFC without an (s) so there's no ambiguity that you don't want poly, let me know and I can tweak them so we have two versions of the tag - Tar-Míriel/OFC and Tar-Míriel/OFC(s)/OFC(s). If you're happy with the more commonly canonical version of Original Female Character(s) and using your optional details to provide your requests, then I'll leave it as it is.

Thank you for the heads up about the crossovers! I'm just logging off right now, but I'll sort those first thing tomorrow. Ditto with the slow tagset issue, Eowyn (Books) should have been fixed already in the backend (I manually associated the wrong Eowyn tag there and noticed immediately), but if it's still in the wrong spot tomorrow I'll poke the tagset again to fix it.

Thank you for fixing the crossover and Eowyn issues!

The accepted tag says "Tar-Míriel/Any Female Character(s)", not "Tar-Míriel/Original Female Character(s)", and I don't see those as the same thing. I would assume from seeing it that "Any Female Character(s)" meant any canon character(s) and doesn't include original characters. I would prefer for my tag to be added back in the way I nominated it.

Oh oops, sorry! That's my eyes blurring because I've been starring at a screen too long and exactly why I'm logging off, haha. We don't even allow Any Characters, that's my bad not to seeing they were different when scanning the queue and I can definitely fix it for you in the morning. Let me know if you specifically want it with or without the plural?

If you notice any other issues, please feel free to drop notes and I'll get to them a.s.a.p. tomorrow for you.

Thank you. :)

My nominated tag was Tar-Míriel/Original Female Character. I would prefer for my tag to be added back in the way I nominated it.
