Nominations questions & notes #1

[shipoweenmod]

Mod questions or rejection notes regarding tagset nominations go here!

- Tagset
- Nominations instructions
- Nominations close 23:59 UTC on Tuesday 8 September: Countdown

Do not nominate "All Media Types" or "& Related Fandoms" - please be specific! If this is truly the most fitting tag for your fandom, please comment or email to explain.

If you have any queries, please comment here or email shipoween@gmx.com.


1) Crossover Fandom: Matt Murdock (Daredevil TV)/Wade Wilson (Deadpool) - nominator, please specify a Deadpool! If no response by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll assume movies. - RESOLVED - changed to (Deadpool Movies)

2) Homestuck: June Egbert/Terezi Pyrope/Vriska Serket - is June Egbert actually confirmed in canon or is this still a fan theory? If no response by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll reject. - RESOLVED - rejected (see comment below)

3) Undertale (Video Game): Chara/Frisk (Undertale)/Anyone - I'm afraid "Anyone" is too vague. Would "Chara/Frisk/Any Undertale Character" work? If no response by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll reject. - RESOLVED - no response; rejected

4) Fairy Tales & Related Fandoms - nominator, I'm not accepting "& Related Fandoms". Please nominate these under the individual fairy tales (or Crossover Fandom in the case of Little Red Riding Hood & Boy Who Cried Wolf). If this is not fixed by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll separate them out. - RESOLVED - thanks, nominator!

5) Fuller House (TV): Becky Donaldson/Katsopolis/Jesse Katsopolis (Fuller House) - nominator, who is the "Katsopolis" in the middle referring to? If no response by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll assume that first slash was meant to be a dash and change this to Becky Donaldson-Katsopolis/Jesse Katsopolis. - RESOLVED - no response, amended as above

6) Halloween Movies - All Media Types - per the nominations instructions, I'm not accepting "All Media Types" fandoms without discussion. I'm reluctant to accept this tag as it refers to the original movies, the Rob Zombie movies, and the series that started in 2018, plus the comics. Could you please be more specific? If no response by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll play a guessing game/ - RESOLVED - thanks, nominator!

7) Simoun (Anime): Aaeru/Neviril & Neviril/Paraietta - this is two separate relationships in one tag and I won't be accepting nominations like this. Please amend! If no response by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll reject. - RESOLVED - no response; rejected per note

8) 悪の秘密結社 - nominator, can you confirm whether this is the same thing as "Yabai (Comics)"? If so, please change the fandom to that. If not, this really needs a translation or a romanisation or something in the fandom name that would work with the usual AO3 format, please, or my spreadsheets are going to get very confused. If no response by 16:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 4 September, I'll change to Yabai (Comics). - RESOLVED - thanks, nominator! approved as "秘密結社 | Aku No Himitsu Kessya"


Marvel Cinematic Universe and The Avengers (Marvel Movies)

Per the franchise instructions in the nominations post, the following things are true:

MCU movies should be split by franchise

Marvel shows should be nominated separately

I will not be accepting "The Avengers (Marvel Movies)" at all

"Marvel Cinematic Universe" should be used for ships who only, or predominantly, appear in the same movie via Avengers movies or a mix of franchises, or in-universe crossovers

What I've done with the MCU and Avengers nominations that have been rejected:
- James "Bucky" Barnes & Maria Hill: added to Captain America (Movies)
- James "Bucky" Barnes & Sam Wilson: added to Captain America (Movies)
- James "Bucky" Barnes/Maria Hill: added to Captain America (Movies)
- James "Bucky" Barnes/Sam Wilson: already in Captain America (Movies)
- James "Bucky" Barnes/Shuri: already in Black Panther (2018)
- Maria Hill & Sam Wilson: added to Captain America (Movies)
- Maria Hill/Steve Rogers: added to Captain America (Movies)
- Obadiah Stane/Tony Stark: already in Iron Man (Movies)
- Nebula/Tony Stark: added to Marvel Cinematic Universe
- Nick Fury/Steve Rogers: added to Captain America (Movies)
- Stephen Strange/Thor: already in Thor (Movies)
- Stephen Strange/Tony Stark: already in Marvel Cinematic Universe as Tony Stark/Stephen Strange
- Stephen Strange/Wong: added to Doctor Strange (2016)
- Steve Rogers/Stephen Strange: added to Marvel Cinematic Universe
- Steve Rogers/Tony Stark: added to Marvel Cinematic Universe
- Tony Stark/Thor: added to Marvel Cinematic Universe

Comments

Thanks! For the purposes of this exchange, I'm not considering Word of God or any other extra-canon sources to be canon so I'll be rejecting this nomination.

Basically: if a character has appeared (or their existence is confirmed) in canon itself, that's great. If you wouldn't know about a character without having interacted with a source outside that canon, that's outside the scope of the exchange.

That said, original characters are fine. If there's a way for the nominator to get close-ish to what they want with an original character, I'd be happy to approve that.
