Almost done! Sign ups will open once these last two fandoms have been decided on.

Lord Peter Wimsey - Dorothy Sayers

This series was continued by another author, the last novel being published in 2012. Are the new novels distinct enough to be counted as a separate canon?


天地無用! | Tenchi Muyo!

There are OVA series that have been released past 2010, but I can't tell if they're adaptations of the original manga, or sequels? Can someone please clarify?

Thank you!

The tagset is now closed to nominations!

Keep an eye on the community for any further clarification posts. As I work my way through approvals, it will also help if you point out any typos/duplicate tags, or other errors.

Thank you!

Some more information needed on the following nominated tags!

Akira (Togainu no Chi)/Konoe (Lamento): These characters appear to be from two different fandoms, yet they were nominated under Togainu no Chi. If this is a crossover pairing, it needs to be nominated under Crossover Fandom!

And the following fandoms seem to be ineligible, unless I'm missing something. If there's ambiguity in the new material, or something I don't know, please speak up! Otherwise, feel free to go in and change your nominations so you don't lose your slots.

Death Note (Anime & Manga): There is a new chapter of Death Note due to be published next week.

Misfits TV: This show was on air until 2013, which would make it ineligible.

Wiedźmin | The Witcher Series - Andrzej Sapkowski: The last book in this series was published in 2013. Is it in the same continuity/contain the same characters?

Also, if you notice any typos, mistakes, or floating tags, do let me know so I can fix. Thank you, everyone!

Opening up a little early, since I won't have much time tomorrow morning. The tagset is here!

You may nominate up to 6 fandoms, with up to 8 tags (either a character, or a relationship).

& is for platonic. / is for romantic/sexual. Please don't mix them up! Combinations of & and / ARE allowed. (Example: Martha Wayne/Thomas Wayne & Bruce Wayne)

Please format solo character nominations as follows: Firstname Lastname & None. Rest assured - this means you are still matching on a single character! This is a workaround to make the AO3 interface accommodate the type of matching we're doing. So for example, to nominate James Kirk, please format your nomination as "James Kirk & None."

If you are nominating a crossover pairing, please include the canons in parentheses, and be sure to nominate it under Crossover Fandom. Example: James Kirk (Star Trek: TOS)/Aeryn Sun (Farscape)

Make sure you follow the community (or check in regularly) for clarification questions. Remember that you can still make a case for your borderline fandoms on the eligibility post up until the tagset closes on February 11.

Any questions, leave me a comment or shoot me an email at waybackexchange@gmail.com!

Countdown to Close of Nominations

Parade's End/Lord of the Rings Nominators

Still waiting to hear from all nominators on preference re: books or All Media Types. If you do not get back to me by the time sign ups open on Feb 23, I will default to the tags for the books.

Final Fantasy VII Nominators

Currently I have both the "Compilation" and the single tag for the video game nominated. I will combine these both into the tag for the video game, unless I hear otherwise from one of the nominators.

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon (Anime & Manga)

This is currently in the tagset under "Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon (Live Action TV)." I presume one is based on the other, but were they intended as separate fandoms and/or are they distinct enough to be separate?

Ranma 1/2

Is the 2011 TV movie distinct enough from the original manga to count as a separate canon? Wikipedia claims that it takes its plot from an early story in the manga, but I'd like to confirm with someone familiar with the canon re: its place in the continuity. Was it a continuation of the canon, or a live action adaptation?

Ceirdwyn &/ Matthew McCormick (Highlander: The Series)

Please choose either platonic or romantic. They cannot be combined in the same tag.


Joel Fleischman/Dan Rydell (Northern Exposure)

This appears to be a crossover pairing. Does a Dan Rydell appear in Northern Exposure?

John Sheppard & Stargate Atlantis Team (Stargate Atlantis)

FYI to the nominator: this was rejected because the tag "Ronon Dex & Teyla Emmagan & Rodney McKay & John Sheppard (SGA)" already exists in the tagset. If by "Stargate Atlantis Team," you meant the larger set of characters on the Atlantis "team" (Elizabeth Weir, et al), let me know and I will add it back in.


Sign ups will open on Feb 23. If the relevant nominators do not get back to me by then, I will be making judgment calls! As always - check your fandoms for typos and let me know if you see anything that needs fixing.

WHAT TIME IS THAT FOR ME? | COUNTDOWN


We're getting close!

Parade's End/Lord of the Rings Nominators

Do you prefer the tags formatted to books/tv/movies? I need all the LoTR nominators to chime in before I change it. If you don't get back to me by the time sign ups open on Feb 23, I will default to the tags for the books.

Black Jack (Anime & Manga)

Is Young Black Jack (2011) the same franchise? Is it distinct enough from the rest of the canon to be considered separate?


Fantasy VII Nominator/s

Did you intend to use the compilation tag, or do you want it limited to the video game? I will default to the video game tag if I don't hear from the other nominator re: their preference.

Dad's Army / Sector General - James White Nominator/s

The tags "George Mainwaring & Everyone" and "Conway & Everyone" are problematic - is "& Anyone" acceptable?

Star Trek - Various Authors

This canonical tag seems to include all Star Trek novels. Please limit your nomination to a more specific category, such as "Star Trek: The Original Series - Novels" or "Star Trek: Rihannsu."






Note to those wondering about rejected tags: most of the ones I've rejected are because the relationship is already in the tagset under a different format, so double check before you freak out! As always, get in touch if you have questions.

A few more clarifications needed! As usual, let me know if you see typos/mistakes/floating tags.

Parade's End/Lord of the Rings Nominators

Do you prefer the tags formatted to books/tv/movies? I need all the LoTR nominators to chime in before I change it.

Black Jack (Anime & Manga)

Is Young Black Jack (2011) the same franchise? Is it distinct enough from the rest of the canon to be considered separate?

Fantasy VII Nominator/s

Did you intend to use the compilation tag, or do you want it limited to the video game?

The Millionaire (TV)

In regards to the tag "Any Millionaire & None" - by this you mean the characters who receive the money in each episode, correct? Is "Any Beneficiary & None" acceptable?

Here's a good place to get together and coordinate what you're nominating! Offer any open slots you have, ask for a relationship or character you don't have room for, etc. Have fun!
ficmod: (Default)
[personal profile] ficmod
All Media Types fandoms (Lord of the Rings, Parade's End)

Please make sure that you don't want a specific version nominated versus the general tag (books vs. movies/TV series). Remember that when requesting and offering, if the general tag is nominated, your recipient/writer could only be familiar with one.

Compilation of Final Fantasy VII

Is this the same as Final Fantasy VII? Both are eligible, but are they different enough for it to matter which one is used?

And as always, if you see any errors, typos, or floating tags, let me know ASAP and I'll get it fixed!
ficmod: (Default)
[personal profile] ficmod
Voltron: Lion Force (1984)

Allura/Lance (DotU)

Allura/Lotor (DotU)

Keith/Sven (DotU)

You've nominated Lion Force, but you seem to have disambiguated the tags for Defender of the Universe (2011), which is ineligible. Do these characters appear in Lion Force, and if they do - is the canon a separate entity enough from the more recent TV shows to be eligible?

And, related: Voltron: Vehicle Force (1984)

This seems to be a separate category of the canon, but is the more recent material in the same continuity/with the same characters?


Parade's End - All Media Types

I assumed you wanted the TV series, but let me know if you'd like this specified to the novels instead.

& is for platonic. / is for romantic/sexual. Please don't mix them up! Combinations of & and / ARE allowed.

James Kirk & None
Relationships would follow this same format, only with a second person included, as follows:
James Kirk & Nyota Uhura

OR

James Kirk/Nyota Uhura
If you are nominating a crossover pairing, please include the canons in parentheses, and be sure to nominate it under Crossover Fandom:
James Kirk (Star Trek: TOS)/Aeryn Sun (Farscape)
Make sure you follow the community (or check in regularly) for clarification questions. I will be posting questions I have as I clean up the tagset. Remember that you can still make a case for your borderline fandoms on the eligibility post up until the tagset closes on February 20.
