It's been three days since nominations opened and we're already at more than 5,000 tags across more than 800 fandoms!

We have some queries to be addressed so that we can do one last push and finish approving all of the backlogged tags.

• Emony Dax/Leonard "Bones" McCoy - Which McCoy do you mean?

Fantastic Four (Movies 2005-2007)

• Tony Stark/Victor von Doom - Tony Stark does not appear in this series. Please move to Crossover Fandom

Historical RPF
This is a very broad category, and encompasses a lot of the other RPF fandoms by definition. Do the other historical RPF people want to go into this category? Or does the nominator wish to split it up into smaller RPF categories?

Marvel Cinematic Universe and Associated Television Shows

• Characters from Agents of Shield, The Defenders, etc etc. - Do you want to nominate them into the Marvel Cinematic Universe or into individual shows?
• Tony Stark & Johnny Storm - Johnny Storm does not appear in the MCU. Please move to Crossover Fandom

Stanton & Barling - E.M. Powell

• Aelred Barling (Stanton & Barling) - this is a character. Please nominate a & or / ship.
• Hugo Stanton (Stanton & Barling) - this is a character. Please nominate a & or / ship.

Superhero Comics (Marvel Comics, DC Comics)
We have nominations for both an overarching fandom (aka "Marvel (Comics)" and "DC Comics") as well as individual titles. How do you want this done?

Stay tuned, because there will be more admin posts as we progress!

I don't think there's any way to make everybody happy, but I personally would prefer to have comics nominations by individual titles. I know there's going to be characters who appear in more than one and people who are interested in interactions across different comics, but it's not like we don't have the ability to nominate crossovers. Sometimes characters are really different from one run to another, and it's intimidating to think I might sign up offering, idk, Renee Montoya/Kate Kane from Bombshells and get assigned to someone who's only familiar with Detective Comics.

Yeah, I agree with this.

Perhaps DC Comics should mean main continuities only and any Other Earth and Elseworlds characters (such as Bombshells and Injustice) should be nominated by title.

As if we have to nominate everything by title and DC comics characters then have to be nominated in crossovers because of titles people who also have actual crossover they want to nominate are going to lose a bunch of nominations.

And Marvel comics would have similar set-up with 616, Now, etc universes.
