everywoman | Tagset Progress

I am finished reviewing all tags that I do not have questions about.

Update about some group noms, specifically The Kindly Ones: On the basis of the presented info in the last post about that nom, I'm allowing it in as is without specific character names. The same also applies to noms for Group: The Three Ladies (Magic Flute), Group: Shieldmaidens of Rohan (LOTR), and Group: Tar-Míriel & Women of the Faithful, either because the characters lack specific names or because of how they function in their canon. Thank you for everyone who answered last post!

~~This decision may apply to Group: Jasper & Ruby Squad, if the nominator will contact me with their reasoning - I can't find enough info online to understand exactly how that group works.~~ Accepted

Questions from last post that still need answers:

1. Les Misérables - All Media Types is too broad a category - can the person who nominated this narrow it to movie, musical, or book and let me know? Divided into 2012, Schönberg/Boublil, and Hugo. Characters are in all three. Please comment before 23:00 UTC if additional category requested.

2. Fullmetal Alchemist: Envy - Everything I can find online is describing Envy as either male or genderless. Am I looking at the wrong character or is there a justification for Envy being female?

~~3. Cosmere - Brandon Sanderson - What I'm reading online about it suggests this is more of a megafandom than a specific series.~~ ~~See the previous post~~ ~~for how I will split it up if not given a reason for treating it as a specific series.~~ In tagset as outlined, please comment before 23:00 UTC if giving reason to do something else.

4. Wiedźmin | The Witcher - All Media Types- All Media Types is too broad, can this be specified to either the video games or the book? Fixed, thanks!

New Questions:

1. Group: Kara Danvers (Arrowverse) & Jean Grey (X-Men Movies) - I'm assuming Supergirl for Kara Danvers, but is X-Men Movies Alternate Timeline or Original? As far as I can tell, there's differences between the two sets of movies in terms of the character. Allowed for this year due to mod error.

2. Fandom: October Daye Series; Character Arden Windemere - is there a typo in the character name? I can only find Arden Windermere online. Fixed, thanks!

~~3. Barbie - All Media Types - This is too broad. Can it be narrowed down to Video Games, Movies, Books, etc, if not a specific movie?~~ Fixed, thanks!

4. Gone With the Wind - All Media Types - This also needs to be narrowed down to Book or Movie. Fixed, thanks!

5. X-Men (Comicverse) - There appear to be a lot of comics with different plotlines/characterization/etc, can this be narrowed to a specific verse?

Since noms are closed, just let me know below or through PMs what needs to be done on any of these. If you want an all media types split into two (so both "Book" and "Movie" for Barbie, for example), that's fine.

I am working on associating the remaining 19 unassociated characters/groups with fandoms. If you spot anything missing from the tagset that was nommed and is not one of the above questions or there, please let me know - there's been a few lag issues with Ao3 where I've wondered if something disappeared.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I just realized I read the post wrong...thought we had until 1159 EST. Oh well, there's still a lot of good stuff in there!

I'm sorry you misread it! :/

I've enjoyed looking up characters as noms came in - there's quite a few new fandoms & characters I'm intrigued about just by looking at wiki pages.

Not the nominator, but familiar with the Cosmere serieses, and that breakdown makes sense to me. (Assuming those are the only nominated characters? There are a couple others that appear in multiple series under different names so they tend to need a little more finesse, but if that's all it looks good.)

Thanks! If the nominator doesn't get back to me, I'm glad to know it makes sense to someone familiar with it.

Those are the only nominated characters, so I'm glad they're easier ones to sort! I just went by google and the parent tags on the character pages, so was hoping I wouldn't mess it up.

The Magic Flute nom was mine. Sorry if it caused trouble, but thanks for letting it into the tagset this way. :) I appreciate it. It's how they're listed in the score, and I think it's clearest for people who know the opera.

You're welcome! No need to apologize - after looking into it, I thought it'd be clearest that way too and now I know a new exception to list in the rules for next year about group noms. :)

Group: Kara Danvers (Arrowverse) & Jean Grey (X-Men Movies)

It is my nomination. You have accepted Arrowverse and X-Men movies in my other crossover noms, including for both of these characters in other combinations.

Okay, Arrowverse is fine, that's my mistake and I own up to it.

X-Men..I only see one other X-Men movie nom without clarification in there, which I thought I caught and clarified earlier (and would have caught when looking through, seen my mistake, and asked for it to be clarified if possible). All of the other X-Men noms for crossovers have either ATM or Original Move timelines in them.

Are you really okay with receiving any Jean Grey based on those? Because she seems pretty different between those sets, and I can't guarantee your writer/artist will have seen/want to base their gift on both timelines, which is the same reason I preferred Arrowverse to be distinguished. Not every fan is going to have seen and liked several distinct shows or two distinct phases on movies.

If you're fine with that risk, I'll chalk it up to my mistake and let it go through like that for this year.

I'm fine with it, that is why I nominated it that way. The two versions of Jean Grey are the same person at different points in her life, just in two different timelines. I have prompts for people with knowledge of only original Jean, knowledge of only alternate Jean, and ones that require knowledge of both. Any of which I'd be happy to receive.

I'll accept it this year, since it was my fault.

In any future rounds I run, it will be rejected if not revised, whether I catch it at the initial stage or while reviewing the tagset. While I'm glad you'll be happy to receive any, not everyone would be and it is against the rules and the guidelines to nominate under that wide of a fandom.

Duplicate: in Solo (Movies), Qi'ra and Qi'Ra are the same character. (I think the former spelling is canonical.)

Thanks for pointing that out! I can only see one Qi'Ra/Qi'ra not in a group in the tagset under Solo.

Unfortunately, I can't do anything about the noncanonical capitilization. Somebody already made a Qi'Ra and used it as a tag somewhere on Ao3, and Ao3 sees all tags like that the same without regard to capitalization. (This is the same reason some of the Group tags have a small g in group - somebody used that tag elsewhere, and Ao3 now defaults to that capitalization and won't let it be changed).

Oh, sorry! I saw "Qi'ra" (in a group) at the beginning of the line and thought it was a freestanding character that duplicated the later "Qi'Ra." Apologies for the inconvenience, and thanks for all your work in the tagset!

No need to apologize! It was no inconvenience at all, and I'd rather have someone ask and it not be an issue than find out halfway through sign-ups that there was a real issue.

This is embarrassing. Group: Death of the Endless (The Sandman) & La Meurta (The Book of Life), the second character's name is actually spelled La Muerte.

It's fixed now! Incorrect spelling is deleted, correct spelling is in the tagset - currently stuck in unassociated characters until I get the page to load and let me associate it, but in there. :D

I didn't get a chance to go back and fix this, but I meant for it to be Book, not All Media Types. Thank you!!

You're welcome! Thanks for letting me know! They're in the tagset under books now. :D

I wasn't thinking of any in particular, but if I really have to make a choice, I'd pick the movies.

If you want more variety, I can add them in under multiple categories - so movies and video games or whatever, and then you can request them under each. Megafandoms and All Media Types just aren't allowed, because requests/offers can get too dicey.

I was going to reply back but then saw what you did and yeah, I'm okay with that. Thank you, mod.

I'm glad you're okay with it! Thanks for commenting. :)

Witcher - I would like to specify it to books only, if it's not too late

Edited 2018-06-04 16:29 (UTC)

Not too late at all! I'm editing it to books only. Just to make sure, books are by Andrzej Sapkowski? If not I'll fix it again, but currently that's in the tagset and I'm adding the characters under it.

Yes, they are by Andrzej Sapkowski.

:D Good! I'm glad I got the right ones in the tagset.

Windemere was a mistake! Windermere is the right spelling.

(Lesson of the day: don't nominate characters with names close to a local meet-up spot on your phone, your brain won't recognize if you mistyped and your autocorrect's learned the wrong spelling.)

Thanks! It's fixed and in the tagset now.

(Hey, you got the rest of them spelled right! That's more than I would manage on a phone.)
