The tagset will close in a little over 12 hours! Here's a countdown.
It may stay open a little longer at my discretion, and I'll continue to sort out issues and questions after it's closed.
I'm sorry it's taking longer than usual for approvals--I'm running solo this year as CBMod takes a well-earned break, and I've also been encountering frequent errors with the nominations page. These errors have meant some manual cleanup. Please check your nominations and let me know if you see any problems, particularly tags winding up in the wrong fandom, as I had to do some of those associations myself.
I have some questions for nominators! Please include a link to your nominations page in your response, so I can make sure I'm hearing directly from the nominators when needed.
Dragon Age (Video Games): Fenris/Female Hawke (Dragon Age), Fenris/Hawke (Dragon Age), Hawke/Varric Tethras
Does it make sense to change the generic Fenris/Hawke to Fenris/Male Hawke? Any preference on the gender of Hawke/Varric Tethras?
Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling: Credence Barebone/Original Percival Graves, Original Percival Graves, Scorpius Malfoy & Albus Severus Potter, Scorpius Malfoy & Harry Potter
I don't believe these characters appear in the books. Should they be under Fantastic Beasts and Cursed Child, respectively?
Hunger Games Series - All Media Types
We also have nominations for the books, as well as both the books & movie versions of Songbirds & Snakes. Can we change these to either the books or movies? Please specify for each relationship.
Lisa Frankenstein (2024): The Creature/Lisa Frankenstein (Lisa Frankenstein)
Should this be The Creature/Lisa Swallows?
Marvel Cinematic Universe: Layla El-Faouly/Steven Grant
Should this be under Moon Knight?
Original Work: Male Human Galactic Emperor/Male Alien Galactic Emperor He Marries To End War (OW)
Is this a duplicate of Human Galactic Emperor/Alien Galactic Emperor He Marries To End War (OW)? Is the gender of the already-approved tag ambiguous?
Original Work: Original Female Character(s)/Original Female Character(s)
I'm fine with general OFC nominations in individual fandoms, but for OW this seems too general. Do you have any more specific information about the type of characters you're looking for?
Original Work: Scholar of ancient history/Scholar in enemy land with whom they correspond (M/M) (OW)
We also have Scholar of ancient history/Scholar in enemy land with whom they correspond (OW), and I'd prefer to avoid the overlap. Does the nominator of the approved version have a gender preference?
Star Wars Sequel Trilogy: Ben Solo | Kylo Ren/Jacen Syndulla, Poe Dameron/Ben Solo | Kylo Ren/Jacen Syndulla, Poe Dameron/Jacen Syndulla
Is Jacen Syndulla in the Sequel Trilogy? If not, is this a crossover, and if so, with which fandom?
A Song of Ice and Fire & Related Fandoms
We also have nominations for the books and House of the Dragon. Which specific versions are you interested in?
DCU
Is this for DC Comics?
Dune - All Media Types
We have nominations also for the books and for the new film adaptation. Which would you like, or one of the other adaptations?
I'm Unhappy - aespa (Music Video)
R.o.S.E BLUE - Dreamcatcher (Music Video)
Welcome To My World - Aespa (Music Video)
These were nominated without relationships, and this exchange requires relationships for a match. Please add a character/relationship if you'd like these fandoms.
Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008)
Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) - All Media Types
Can these fandoms be combined, or do they need to be disambiguated?
The Sandman (Comics)
The relationships include Dream of the Endless, Dream of the Endless | Morpheus, Dream of the Endless | Daniel, and Daniel Hall. Is the difference between all four of these versions of the character(s) clear?

- Jacen is not in the sequel trilogy. So far we've only seen Jacen in Rebels & Ahsoka, but he's a child in those. However, canonically Jacen is around the same age as Poe & Ben. I didn't feel comfortable nominating a crossover listing Jacen from Rebels or Ahsoka since he's a child and I'm nominating Poe/Ben/Jacen, Poe/Jacen, Ben/Jacen as a ship when they'd all be of legal age. That's why I put him in sequel trilogy. I'm totally okay taking out those nominations.
- I nominated Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) - All Media Types. I did that because the all media types is just what's used for the 2008 Clone Wars cartoon. I don't see any reason why they can't be combined though. That's okay if they are combined.

Under Saiyuki Gaiden:
"Cho Hakkai & Genjo Sanzo & Sha Gojyo & Son Goku" and "Kanzeon Bosatsu/Sharak Sanzo" are both duplicates of tags nominated under "Saiyuki (Anime & Manga)" and shouldn't be under Gaiden because these characters (mostly) don't appear there and are already nominated where they do belong.
Under Saiyuki Ibun:
"Genjo Sanzo & Koumyou Sanzo," "Kami-sama/Ni Jianyi | Ukoku," and "Koumyou Sanzo & Ni Jianyi | Ukoku" are all duplicates of tags nominated under "Saiyuki (Anime & Manga)" and shouldn't be under Ibun because these characters either don't appear there or only briefly appear.
Thank you again, please let me know if anything is unclear!

For the non-specified character 'Dream of the Endless' I'd understand this to be either Daniel or Morpheus. For 'Daniel Hall', I would guess this meant Daniel before he became Dream or a version where he doesn't become Dream, but without clarification this could be interpreted differently and isn't clear to me personally as it stands, although it might be there's more recent material in canon I'm not familiar with that would make this clear
Imo I would think that just the two characters 'Dream of the Endless | Daniel' and 'Dream of the Endless | Morpheus' would be enough and more clear than all four, but it might be that the nominator has a different idea or wants to allow their creator flexibility by also including 'Dream of the Endless' without specifying which version of the character (however if someone requested this non-specific version of the character and then DNW either Morpheus or Daniel, I would feel boxed in as a creator)

My problem with this is that ideally, I would very much like the backstory of Snow and especially the worldbuilding about the 11th Games (the Games that Mags won) that we get in Songbirds & Snakes to be part of or inform the story, which would make Songbirds and Snakes the best fit for my request. However, Mags is not a character in Songbirds and Snakes, which means that my options are as follows:
Hunger Games Trilogy - Suzanne Collins: not ideal for what I want, since writing something about either Mags or Mags & Snow on just the basis of the HG trilogy misses a lot of the prominent worldbuilding and backstory from the prequel that make the request much more interesting to me.
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes - Suzanne Collins: would be my preference regarding the setting, background and worldbuilding of the story, but Mags doesn't appear in this book, making her an ineligible character for this fandom.
Nominating Mags (THG - Collins) & Coriolanus Snow (TBoSaS) as a crossover relationship might be the best solution, although that doesn't help me with the solo request for Mags.
AMT, or a books fandom that combines the HG trilogy with Songbirds & Snakes, would be the best solution for my purposes (but of course I am aware that others have other preferences, these are just mine).
I'm really not sure what the best thing to do in my situation would be if the nominations currently in AMT are split, and unfortunately, due to time zones, I may well be asleep when nominations close, so I can't edit my nominations according to what is decided.

I was the one who nominated Dune under 'All Media Types'; I would prefer to keep that as is if it's not any trouble. Thanks again!
