We're a couple of days into nominations and we're already at 4,761 relationship tags across 789 fandoms.

We have some queries as follows:

• Agent Carter - does Steve Rogers appear in the show? If not, please move to Crossover Fandom
• Fantastic Four Movies (2005-2007) - Tony Stark does not appear in these movies, please move these nominations to Crossover Fandom
• Rocketman (2019) RPF - can the nominator tell us how Hugh Jackman relates to this fandom?
• Rogue One - neither Luke Skywalker nor Poe Dameron appear in this movie. Please move to Crossover Fandom
• Star Wars Prequel Trilogy - Ahsoka Tano does not appear in these movies, please move to Crossover Fandom.
• Star Wars Sequel Trilogy - Jyn Erso does not appear in these movies, please move to Crossover Fandom.
• Pokemon - we have nominations for Sword and Shield, the Main Series as a whole, All Media Types, and Black and White. We would like a consistent approach for Pokemon. How should the series be nominated?
• Persona Series - please nominate into individual Persona games, or into Crossover Fandoms.
• The Witcher - All Media Types - please nominate a specific version of the Witcher.
• Fallout - should it be by individual titles or as a series as a whole?

Finally, if you're interested in nominating, requesting, or offering superhero comics, we're asking if you want them as a combined tag (aka Marvel Comics, DC Comics) or as individual titles. Currently, the numbers are 4 for individual titles and 2 for combined tags. We'll make a decision after the weekend is over, so please put your opinion forward if you have one!

For Pokemon, my preference would be the main series video games together under 'Main Game Series', and other versions of continuity in their own continuity specific tags. To elaborate, there's basically three different media universes in Pokemon:

The Pokemon 'main series' games (Red/Blue/Yellow through Sword/Shield) have a shared universe and continuity, and often characters from one game in the series appear in other games in the series - for example, the same Red from Red/Blue/Yellow appears in Gold/Silver/Crystal and Sun/Moon as well.

The main anime has its own entirely separate continuity, and while characters from the anime have some similarities to their game counterparts, they mostly have their own characterizations and there's no crossover with the games' world.

And then the 'Pokemon Special/Pokemon Adventures' manga has characters who have the same names and appearances as characters from the games, but entirely different backstories and characterizations - many of the heroic characters from the games are villains in the manga.

(There's also a bunch of other spinoffs, too, but most of them don't share any human characters with the above continuities.)

If it were All Media Types, that would cause some issues with sorting out which character people are requesting; just as an example, there's someone named Sabrina who exists in all three continuities, but in one she's a soft-spoken but friendly trainer, in another she's a ventriloquist with split personalities who turns people into dolls, and in a third she's a villainous gang member.
