Nomination Queries #1

[candyheartsex]

Nominations haven't been open for long, but we've already got quite the impressive tagset. Take a look and make your own nominations here. Please let me know about any problems you might find.

A few questions so far:

Crossover Fandom: Stephen Strange (Marvel Comics)/John Constantine (DCU) & Bats (Marvel Comics) nominator, does "Bats" here refer to Dr. Strange's dog, bats the animal in plural, or a nickname for Batman?

Growing Up (Video Game): Buddy & Jake Fletcher and Buddy/Jake Fletcher were both nominated. I couldn't find a reference to Buddy for this canon. Did you mean Bobbie, or can you confirm that there is a Buddy?

My Little Pony Generation 4: Friendship Is Magic (Cartoon 2010): Fluttershy/Rainbow Dash was nominated with a disambiguation for Equestria Girls. Nominator, do you want Equestria Girls as a separate fandom?

Dangan Ronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc: Some nominations have already been approved under Dangan Ronpa Series. Nominator(s), are you fine with your relationships being included under that umbrella, or would you prefer to have Trigger Happy Havoc separate?

Dragon Age - All Media Types: These will be approved under Dragon Age (Video Games).

Percy Jackson and the Olympians & Related Fandoms - All Media Types: The book series by Rick Riordan is already in the tagset. Do you specifically want the TV series, movies, games, or musical? Any/all of those can be included and I can approve your nominations under those. Alternately, let me know if you want them nominated under the book series.

Spider-Man - All Media Types: Nominator, can you pick a more specific version?

Transformers - All Media Types: The tagset already has The Transformers (IDW Generation One), Transformers Animated (2007), Transformers: Prime, and Transformers (Bay Movies). Nominator(s), would you prefer your nominations under any of these subfandoms? I can also add more Transformers canons for you.

The following fandoms are currently in the tagset as All Media Types:

Ouran High School Host Club - All Media Types
Hunger Games Series - All Media Types
Ivanhoe - All Media Types
Master and Commander - All Media Types
Newsies - All Media Types

If you nominated any of these and actually want a specific version of the canon, or if you want to make nominations only for a specific version, please comment here. If not, I'll leave them as they are.

Nominated for Hunger Games, and am happy with either media type (novels or movies).

[candyheartsex]

Great, thank you!

Transformers nominator here! I'm good with the All Media Types version for the nominations (any variation of those relationships is fine with me), but I remembered after submitting that we didn't do AMT for Transformers last year. If it's easier for you I'm happy to make a list of subfandoms to put them in!

[candyheartsex]

Thank you! Since there have been nominations for some of the subfandoms, I think it'd be best to avoid AMT for this one, if you're okay with it for your noms. If you can make a list of the subfandoms, I can get them all in the tagset for you.

[box_of_doom]

Ouran here; All Media Types is very fine with me. :)

[candyheartsex]

Great, thanks!

Growing Up nominator here! Buddy is a character within Jake's storyline. Here's a walkthrough of it for reference.

[candyheartsex]

Great, thank you for the link!

I'm having an issue adding more nominations. All my original nominations, my main ones, have been approved. It would be nice to add a few more. I've nominated in 7 fandoms so far, in most of them only 1 relationship, but no matter what else I try to nominate, or how I try to disambiguate (or not), including with canonical tags, I can't add anything at all. I keep getting the same error message at the top of the form:

"Sorry! We couldn't save this tag set nomination because:
Owned tag set You have already submitted nominations for that tag set. Try editing them instead."

I've never struck this before. I've restarted the browser, cleared the cache, etc. Any ideas?

[candyheartsex]

This is a bug that happens sometimes when AO3 glitches and sends your nominations through twice. If you can link me to your nominations page (this will still be anonymous), I can find the copy AO3 created and delete it, which should free you up to add to or edit your original nominations as usual.

Found another set of duplicate tags for Scum Villain's Self-Saving System:

Liu Qingge/Shen Jiu (SVSSS - MXTX)

Liǔ Qīnggē/Shěn Jiǔ | Original Shěn Qīngqiū (SVSS - MXTX)

[candyheartsex]

Thank you! I've deleted the duplicate.

Back again because I accidentally broke my nominations form /o\ Here's the link to it: https://archiveofourown.org/tag_sets/18076/nominations/313897

The Problem: I have a couple relationships I'm nominating in Dangan Ronpa Series. I also have another relationship I'm nominating that's from Danganronpa: Despair Time, which is a fan series on YouTube. Since it's a fan thing rather than official content, I attempted to nominate it as a separate fandom from Dangan Ronpa Series... but accidentally picked a variation of the fandom tag that's been synned to Dangan Ronpa Series, so the form switched it over to that when I submitted it. Now I can't submit an edited version of my nominations form because Dangan Ronpa Series is entered into it twice and the fandom is already approved into the tagset, so I can't delete one of them out.

Could you put some sort of "Danganronpa: Despair Time (Disambiguated for Exchanges)" style fandom tag into the tagset, and nominate "Arei Nageishi/J Rosales" under it in some fashion (and not have that relationship under Dangan Ronpa Series).

Sorry about this!

[candyheartsex]

I've added this for you! The listing will appear in Uncategorized Fandoms, since the fandom tag hasn't been canonized, but the ship and fandom are both now there, and the ship is no longer synching to the series.

[(Anonymous)]

Hi, Percy Jackson nom here! The book series is what I was basing off of, I'm unfortunately used to using the all media types as it covers all of the books but the base books works for me! I'll edit my noms to reflect it, thank you :)

[candyheartsex]

Thank you! And just let me know if you want alternate versions but are out of nomination slots, and I can add them in for you.

[(Anonymous)]

Just a couple of quick questions you can hopefully help with.

1. Where should I put Dragon Age that is not directly part of the video games? As a separate book canon? Or under video games for the purpose of matching even though it isn't?

2. You have a matching nomination Disa (Rings of Power)/Durin (Tolkien), that's got into both TV: Rings of Power and into books: Silmarillion.
Not sure if it was meant to be disambiguated differently in the Silmarillion to be clear the version of Durin wanted was different. Or would that go under crossovers?

Thank you, and sorry for giving you more work.

[candyheartsex]

1. For that, you can nominate a separate book canon, either broadly (like Dragon Age - Books) or more specifically--whatever works best and/or you think is more consistent with the fandom's general handling of it.

2. Thank you for pointing this out! It's a wandering tag--it was approved under Rings of Power, so I've altered the tag to make sure it stays there and only there.

[klutzygirl]

Duplicate nomination in Revolution (TV)

Charlie Matheson/Bass Monroe (Revolution)
Charlie Matheson/Bass Monroe

[candyheartsex]

Duplicated deleted, thanks!

[useyourtelescope]

Noticed a typo in an approved nomination:

The Borgias (Showtime TV)
Cesare Borgias/Lucrezia Borgias (Showtime TV)

It should be (without the plurals):
Cesare Borgia/Lucrezia Borgia (Showtime TV)

[candyheartsex]

Fixed, thanks!

Another set of duplicate noms:

Jiang Cheng/Wen Qing (CQL)
Jiang Cheng/Wen Qing (Untamed TV)

[candyheartsex]

Fixed, thanks!

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not sure if I messed up, or it was AO3, but Tom Cruise/Glen Powell ended up nommed in Mission:Impossible RPF, and it should only be in Top Gun RPF.

[candyheartsex]

It was AO3! I've disambiguated so it should stay put now.

[(Anonymous)]

This isn't a listed issue, but "Sarafa/Yudil (NieR Reincarnation)" should be under the "NieR Reincarnation (Video Game)" fandom. "NieR Gestalt | NieR Replicant | NieR (Video Games)" are different games. Thank you!

[candyheartsex]

Fixed, thanks!

[goodbadbaby]

I nominated a range of Fire & Blood/House of the Dragon pairings under "House of the Dragon". These pairings are also sometimes listed under "A Song of Ice and Fire & Related Fandoms" because most fic draws from both book and show canons. Is nominating under HOTD only okay?

[candyheartsex]

Yes, it's fine to just nominate under HOTD only if that's the specific canon you want.

[(Anonymous)]

Found a wandering tag:

Jace Malcom & Theron Shan

Should be under: Star Wars Legends: The Old Republic (Video Game)
Is also appearing in: Star Wars Legends - All Media Types

[candyheartsex]

Fixed, thanks!

[cricketdust]

I tried to nominate characters from Titans (TV 2018) but they haven't been approved (all my others have), so I just wanted to check if I'm doing something wrong re: DC. The nominations format post says "DCEU movies should be nominated under 'DC Extended Universe'" and mentions nominating Arrowverse DC shows under that umbrella, but this falls into neither category, unless I'm just misunderstanding something. Thank you!

[candyheartsex]

You're fine! I'm just traveling over the holidays, so nomination approvals are a bit backed up right now.

[(Anonymous)]

Thomas Andrews/Rose Dewitt Bukater is in Titanic (movie), 19th CE RPF, and 20th CE RPF, but it should be solely in Titanic (movie) as Rose is not a real person.

[candyheartsex]

Fixed, thanks!

[naryrising]

Hi, I noticed there's a duplicate relationship under ロード・エルメロイⅡ世の事件簿 - 三田誠 | Lord El-Melloi II Case Files - Sanda Makoto:

Iskandar | Rider/Waver Velvet (Lord El-Melloi)
Iskandar | Rider/Waver Velvet

Thanks for all your work!

[candyheartsex]

Thank you! I've deleted the duplicate.

Prismo/Scarab (Fionna and Cake) is currently showing up under both Adventure Time (Cartoon 2010) and Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake (Cartoon 2023). Should be just Fionna and Cake.

[candyheartsex]

Fixed, thanks!

Hello! I believe there may be a duplicate or need for clarification in Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle -

Fuuma/Kamui (Tsubasa)
Monou Fuuma/Shirou Kamui

I'm not the nominator for either, but the character Fuuma in Tsubasa is an alternate version of Monou Fuuma from X, while Kamui in Tsubasa is an alternate version of Shirou Kamui from X. I don't believe their family names are said in Tsubasa, and they only go by Fuuma and Kamui. I'm only familiar with Tsubasa, so the nominator for Monou Fuuma/Shirou Kamui may have intended their X counterparts!

[candyheartsex]

Thank you for pointing this out! I'll include it in the next query post.

[(Anonymous)]
