Questions

Andor (TV)

Kleya Marki & Leia Organa: Nominator(s), as far as I can tell, Leia does not appear in Andor. If she does, can you verify that? Until then, this has been approved under Star Wars - All Media Types.

Barry Allen/Leonard Snart
Clark Kent/Lex Luthor
Lena Luthor/Kara Zor-El
Leonard Snart & Lisa Snart
Mick Rory & Leonard Snart & Lisa Snart
Mick Rory/Caitlin Snow
Sara Lance & Leonard Snart

Nominator(s), could you please clarify which of these should be in DC’s Arrowverse, which should be in DC Extended Universe, which should be in DC Comics, Crossover Fandom, etc.? These are usually approved under those subfandoms.

Nominations are still ongoing! Check out the tagset and make your own nominations here.

Questions:

Crossover Nominations

Buffy Summers (BtVS)/Bruce Wayne (Batman): Nominator(s), could you specify a canon for Batman?

Tales of the Rays (Video Game)

I have nominations for:

Mileena Weiss (Tales of the Rays)/Elle Mel Marta (Tales of Asteria)
Victor (Tales of the Rays)/Elle Mel Marta (Tales of Asteria)

It looks like these should be listed as crossover nominations. Is that acceptable, or is there an umbrella name for this series of games that you'd prefer to nominate these under?

Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types

Nominator(s), could you pick a more specific version? These are usually approved under their subfandoms.

All Media Types

The following fandoms are currently in the tagset as All Media Types but also have subfandoms in the tagset:

Fullmetal Alchemist - All Media Types
Wicked - All Media Types
Batman - 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 (already approved or otherwise), please comment here. If not, I'll leave them as they are.

All nominations not under discussion here have been reviewed! I'll continue cleaning up the tagset to remove duplicates, disambiguate wandering tags, and make corrections, but there shouldn't be any more major additions. Thanks to everyone for being immensely helpful in catching problems!

Merging

The Suicide Squad movies --> DCEU
Monstrous Regiment - Terry Pratchett --> Discworld - Terry Pratchett
Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc --> Dangan Ronpa Series
Hawkeye (Comics) --> Marvel (Comics) with disambiguation

Clarifications

The Thursday Murder Club Series - Richard Osman
Wylding Hall - Elizabeth Hand

Both of these were nominated with some individual characters and/or places rather than relationships. I've approved the nomination of groups in both cases, but nominators, do you have any further relationships you'd like to add?

Crossover nominations between different eras of Doctor Who, or between Doctor Who and Torchwood, have generally been approved under Crossover Fandom, with each character disambiguated under their respective series. (Cameos complicate this, so let me know if your nomination is affected by that and you'd prefer the relationship to appear in a different fandom/subfandom.)

All Media Types

If you nominated any of the following fandoms and actually want a specific version of the canon, please comment here. (The AMT nomination will stay, but your preferred version can be added as a separate fandom.) If not, I'll assume they're fine and leave these as they are:

Shawshank Redemption - All Media Types
Jesus Christ Superstar - All Media Types
Addams Family - All Media Types
Beetlejuice - All Media Types
Master and Commander - All Media Types
Newsies - All Media Types
Ouran High School Host Club - All Media Types

Questions

1. Nominations for Pokemon - All Media Types have been approved under Pokemon (Main Video Game Series), except Nobori | Ingo & Teru | Rei, which is in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Nominator(s), would you like this also listed under Main Video Game Series, or would you like alternate versions of any of your Pokemon nominations added?

2. Nominator for The Amazing Spider-Man (Movies) RPF, your nominations were for movie characters rather than the actors. Did you want RPF, or should these nominations be under the movie itself?

3. Lord of the Rings (Movies) nomination for Aragorn/Halbarad--I can't find verification that Halbarad appeared in the films. Did you mean this to appear under the book series?

4. Batter My Heart Three Person’d God - John Donne: Nominator, I've approved this relationship as Three-Person'd God/Poetic Speaker to use the name(s) most apparent in the text. Does this work as a simplified label?

5. Any Ship I've Liked: Would "Any Fandom I've Requested or Created For" work as the fandom here? Any/Any or Creator's Choice of Relationship could be the ships.

6. Nominator(s) for The Doctor & Donna Noble and The Doctor & Martha Jones, do you have specific iterations of the Doctor in mind, or would you like it to be Any Doctor & Donna and/or Any Doctor & Martha?

7. Crossover nominators:

Long Long Man (Sakeru Gum Commercials)/Willy Wonka -- Can you specify what canon you want for Willy Wonka?
Nico di Angelo & Jason Todd -- Can you specify what canon you want for Jason Todd?
Peter Parker (Spider-Man - Webb)/Johnny Storm -- Can you specify what canon you want for Johnny Storm?

8. Watchmen - All Media Types: Nominations have been approved under the comics. Nominator(s), do you want the comics versions? If not, would you prefer having the movie added as a fandom or to stick with All Media Types?

9. X-Men (Movieverse): Nominator(s), please specify whether you want the Original Timeline Movies or the Alternate Timeline Movies for the following relationships:

John Allerdyce & Bobby Drake & Jubilation Lee & Kitty Pryde & Piotr Rasputin & Rogue
John Allerdyce/Bobby Drake/Rogue
John Allerdyce/Rogue
Kitty Pryde & Rogue & Jubilation Lee
Logan & Rogue
Rogue & Charles Xavier
Rogue & Hank McCoy
Rogue & Jean Grey & Ooro Munroe
Rogue & Scott Summers

Merging

Per previous input, Willow (TV 2022) will be merged with Willow - Lucasarts - All Media Types.

Unless the nominators object, the following fandoms will be merged:

Blue Lock (Anime) and Blue Lock (Manga)
Super Mario Bros. (Video Games) and Super Mario (Video Games)
Spy x Family (Manga) and Spy x Family (Anime)
Chainsaw Man (Anime) and Chainsaw Man (Manga)

Splitting

Legend of the Five Rings will be split into Legend of the Five Rings (AEG/Old5R) and Legend of the Five Rings (FFG/New5R).

Georgette Heyer - Works: These nominations have been split up among their various novels.

Questions

1. Sesshoumaru (InuYasha)/Tony Stark--Do you want Tony Stark (MCU) or Tony Stark (Marvel Comics)? If the comics, do you want any particular run?

2. Snow White/Huntsman nominator, I've put this under Schneewittchen | Snow White (Fairy Tale), since there are so many variations of Snow White. Let me know if you want another version, but this isn't one we can do All Media Types for.

3. The following Transformers nominations came in under Transformers - All Media Types. We aren't using AMT for Transformers. Please choose a more specific canon:

Blackarachnia/Optimus Prime (Transformers)
Cyclonus/Tailgate (Transformers)
Hot Rod/Soundwave (Transformers)
Megatron/Minimus Ambus (Transformers)
Rodimus | Rodimus Prime/Thunderclash
Starscream/Windblade (Transformers)

If you nominated any of these and actually want a specific version of the canon, please comment here. If not, we'll leave these as they are.

5. The following fandoms currently have no relationships assigned to them. If you have relationships you want added to these fandoms, please comment here. If not, I'll delete these fandoms from the tagset:

Mousou Dairinin | Paranoia Agent
東京ゴッドファーザーズ | Tokyo Godfathers (2003)
Dewprism | Threads of Fate
No More Heroes (Video Games)
Prey (Video Game 2017)
Subnautica (Video Game)

The tagset is already mounting up! Please let me know about any problems you might find. There are still a lot of nominations in review. A few questions:

Blaseball: Parker MacMillan & Megan Ito (Blaseball: Pre-history I) -- Does the "pre-history" part of the disambiguation mean that Blaseball is an umbrella fandom and this is from installment/branch? If so, are you fine with it being under just Blaseball (with or without the "Pre-history" add-on), or would you prefer to have it separated out?

蒼穹のファフナー | Fafner: Just to verify, are Minashiro Soushi and Minashiro Soushi (II) separate characters?

Pokémon: There are nominations for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, Pokémon Sword & Shield, and Pokémon Main Video Game Series. Would Pokémon nominators weigh in on whether or not they would prefer grouping everything under the umbrella tag or have everything split down by subfranchise? Nominators who used the Pokémon Main Video Game Series tag, could your nominated relationships be put in one particular subfranchise (ie, Red/Blue/Yellow or Silver/Gold), or do they span multiple games? We're going with nominating all Pokémon relationships under Pokemon Main Video Game Series.

Hawkeye (Comics): I can approve this under Marvel (Comics) with "(Hawkeye Comics)" attached. Is that okay?

Goal Lines - Eden Finley: I'm only turning up a book called Goal Lines & First Times. Is that the full title of the canon, or is Goal Lines a different story?

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022): Do you mind if these nominations go under the umbrella fandom of Knives Out, or do you want them kept separate?

Emelan - Tamora Pierce: Roger of Conte/Thom of Trebond (Emelan)--This is currently approved under Tortall - Tamora Pierce. Do these characters also appear in the Emelan books, and if so, do you want them nominated here, or should they just be with the other Tortall noms?

Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV): Please renominate under "Buffyverse (TV)."

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Higashikata Josuke (JoJo: Diamond is Unbreakable)/Nijimura Okuyasu--Does JoJo: Diamond is Unbreakable need its own fandom, or can both these characters be listed just as JoJo's Bizarre Adventures?

The Punisher (TV): Please renominate these relationships under "The Defenders (TV)."
