Queries Post #2

[chocolateboxmod]

Greetings Chocolatiers!

Thank you for your patience while we navigated our real life commitments. We've approved over 9400 tags, and we have sighted every nomination that has been made as at the time of writing this post.

Ace Attorney

• Please provide a list of all tags that have been affected by the duplication bug - it's easier for us to search the admin console if we have the complete tag to search.

Crossover Fandom

• If you have nominated a DC or Marvel character into this section, please specify media.

Fate/Grand Order

• Enkidu/Gilgamesh (F/GO) nominator - please specify which version you want.

Dangan Ronpa - AMT

• Please nominate into either Dangan Ronpa (Hope's Peak Arc) or New Dangan Ronpa V3: Everyone's New Semester of Killing

Fire Emblem

• Please put the name of your game into the disambiguation, not just Fire Emblem.

Fullmetal Alchemist - AMT

• Please choose a version.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni | Higurashi When They Cry

• Please confirm that Bernkastel appears in Higurashi, or move into Crossover Fandom. I am familiar with the Higurashi sound novels, so spoilers are fine.

Legend of Zelda

• Please also nominate specific games, and not the overarching franchise.

LGBT British Royalty RPF

• We are fine with the relationships but please come up with a different name for the group as a whole.

Men's Hockey

• Do not use /& - this will break our tagset. Please nominate gen and ships separately.

Nominator Who Puts Legend of Zelda Characters Into Other Fandoms

• Please put these nominations into Crossover Fandom.

Nominator Who Puts Twin Peaks Characters Into Other Fandoms

• Please put these nominations into Crossover Fandom.

Nominations with no relationships

• We are a relationship matching exchange. Please add some.

Saiyuki

• Could the nominators for Chin Yisou/Cho Gonou (Saiyuki) and Chin Yisou/Cho Hakkai (Saiyuki) confirm whether they are fine with this becoming one tag?

A reminder that relationship tags have to be arranged in alphabetical order, and the fandom at the end. Examples:

Kiyose Haiji/Kurahara Kakeru (Run with the Wind)
Henry Bolingbroke | Henry IV/Joan of Navarre (Plantagenet RPF)

Thank you to everyone who has done this. Approving Dragon Age, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Marvel Cinematic Universe, Star Wars, and Star Trek was so much easier this time around, thanks to your work!

Finally, anonymous comments are automatically screened unless you include your AO3 name. Thank you and happy nominating!

Problem with nomination

[(Anonymous)]

Hi! I'm the Blue Escapist. I'm the one who nominated:

Fullmetal Alchemist - AMT

and I'm trying to correct this according to your instructions, but I am unable to do so because there's been some kind of mistake in another nomination of mine, this one:


Fandom 1
Final Fantasy XIII Series ✔
Relationship
Hope Estheim/Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII series) ✔
Relationship
Caius Ballad/Noel Kreiss (Final Fantasy XIII Series) ✔
Relationship
Caius Ballad/Noel Kreiss (Final Fantasy XIII Series) ✔
Relationship
Serah Farron/Snow Villiers (Final Fantasy XIII Series) ✔
Relationship
Oerba Dia Vanille/Oerba Yun Fang (Final Fantasy XIII Series) ✔
Relationship
Caius Ballad/Noel Kreiss (Final Fantasy XIII Series) ✔


I only nominated Caius Ballad/Noel Kreiss once, the other nomination was Caius Ballad/Paddra Nsu Yeul, which has instead disappeared.

However, since there are now three copies of Caius Ballad/Noel Kreiss, I cannot save my nomination with the correction to Fullmetal Alchemist - AMT, because it says:

"Sorry! We couldn't save this tag set nomination because: You seem to be trying to nominate Caius Ballad/Noel Kreiss (Final Fantasy XIII Series) more than once."

Could you please help?

I wanted to nominate:

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood & Manga

Miles/Scar (Fullmetal Alchemist)

Thanks in advance!

The Blue Escapist

Re: Problem with nomination

[chocolateboxmod]

Not a problem - we've fixed up the FMA nomination and we'll also insert Caius Ballad/Paddra Nsu Yeul.

[chocolateboxmod]

We've fixed the 魔道祖师 - 墨香铜臭 | Módào Zǔshī - Mòxiāng Tóngxiù dupes, but we can't find the duplications for Final Fantasy VII. Can you help us out with that?

[caretta_caretta]

Sorry, I meant Cloud Strife/Zack Fair (Comp FFVII) and Cloud Strife/Zack Fair (Compilation of FFVII).

Since I'm already here, there's a few more on 镇魂 | Guardian - priest:

Shěn Sān & Shěn Wēi/Zhào Yúnlán (镇魂 | Guardian - priest)
Shěn Sān & Shěn Wēi/Zhào Yúnlán (镇魂 | Guardian - priest)

Shěn Sān/Shěn Wēi (镇魂 | Guardian - priest)
Shěn Sān/Shěn Wēi (镇魂 | Guardian - priest)

[chocolateboxmod]

Thank you! Those should be fixed now.

[enemytosleep]

Just some cheers and applause for already sorting OVER NINE THOUSAND TAGS.

Hi, there's a duplicate in 琅琊榜 | Nirvana in Fire (TV)

Xiao Jinghuan & Any Canon Character (NiF)
Any Canon Character & Xiao Jinghuan (NiF)

[maharetr]

Seconding this, because HOLY SHIT, so much work! You're awesome, Chocolate Box Mods! <3

[anabelissima]

Hiya mods! :)

I'm the nominator for LGBT British Royalty RPF. I'm happy to come up with a new name, but I was wondering what the problem was with this one - that will help me pick a new one better. Otherwise I may end up with an equally objectionable name!

A few options that come to mind:

LGBT Monarchs RPF
Historical LGBT Monarchs RPF
Arguably-LGBT Monarchs RPF
British Monarchs and their Same-Sex Lovers RPF

I know all of these sound horrible, I'm sorry. The original was the one that sounded best to me.

[chocolateboxmod]

Essentially, we have to be able to make a call about whether a character fits within a particular fandom or not. For most fandoms, this is pretty easy - either they are or are not. For this nomination, you're asking us to make a judgment call about whether a British monarch is or would consider themselves to be LGBT+ and that's a tough ask!

That said, what about Historical British Monarchs RPF? In Chocolate Box you're not bound by the same RPF conventions as you are for Yuletide, so you don't need to go down to the level of detail that you might in that exchange.

Question of Wonder Woman versions

[maharetr]

So I saw this Lara Croft/Wonder Woman crossover art here, and I want it like BURNING. I'm delighted to see in the Crossover fandoms that there's already Lara Croft (Tomb Raider Legend Timeline)/Diana (Wonder Woman Comics)
But I've only seen the Wonder Woman movie (the first one), and never even picked up a DC comic before. Would it be safer to nominate Lara Croft(Tomb Raider Legend Timeline)/Diana Prince| Wonder Woman (DCEU), or is that too redundant? Anyone more knowledgeable have thoughts?

Thanks, again, mods, for the epic amount of work you've put in here and every year. I look forward to this even more than Yuletide <3

Re: Question of Wonder Woman versions

[chocolateboxmod]

It would be safer to nominate Lara Croft(Tomb Raider Legend Timeline)/Diana Prince| Wonder Woman (DCEU)! (Also I knew it was going to be Stjepan Sejic's art before I even clicked the link!)

[chocolateboxmod]

Thank you! We were pretty confident we could get it done, but we're pleased at our progress nonetheless.

[facethestrange]

Under The Magicians (TV) there's a duplicate:

Julia Wicker/Kady Orloff-Diaz (The Magicians)
Kady Orloff-Diaz/Julia Wicker (The Magicians)

[chocolateboxmod]

That should be fixed up now!

[chocolateboxmod]

That should be fixed now!

[seerofrage]

There's a wandering tag, under xxxHoLic: Li Syaoran & Yue (Cardcaptor Sakura)

[klutzygirl]

Found another duplicate in Supernatural

Dean Winchester & Jack Kline (Supernatural)
Jack Kline & Dean Winchester (Supernatural)

Also one in Arrowverse:

Mick Rory/Ray Palmer (Legends of Tomorrow)
Mick Rory/Ray Palmer (Arrowverse)

[verecunda]

I noticed that the relationship Uncle Aquila/Claudius Hieronimianus has been tagged under the fandom "Frontier Wolf - Rosemary Sutcliff". These characters actually belong to "The Eagle | The Eagle of the Ninth" and don't appear in Frontier Wolf.

Re: Question of Wonder Woman versions

[maharetr]

*cackles!* It's SUCH GOOD art, oh god. Thanks for the speedy response! Nominated! With hopefully the minimum amount of tweaking needed at your end.

[anabelissima]

Oh, that makes sense! I see.

I don't mind whatever name they're under, so your suggestion is fine by me.

[feroxargentea]

Not sure if you want typos pointing out yet or not, but I noticed one in Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (Band) - Blixa Bargel/Nick Cave (NCatBS) should be Blixa Bargeld.

Harry Potter duplicates

[eleosepistrophia]

So I was looking under the Harry Potter tags, and I think these are duplicates, but I'm not sure if mods are considering Tom Riddle and Voldemort to be separate entities. But I've listed them anyway.

Albus Dumbledore/Tom Riddle (Harry Potter)
Albus Dumbledore/Tom Riddle | Voldemort (Harry Potter)

Harry Potter/Tom Riddle (Harry Potter)
Harry Potter/Tom Riddle | Voldemort (Harry Potter)
Harry Potter/Voldemort (Harry Potter)

Remus Lupin/Sirius Black (Harry Potter)
Remus Lupin/Sirus Black (Harry Potter) (spelling error on Sirius in this one)

Jane Marple/Minerva McGonagall - I don't think there's a Jane Marple in HP, just in Agatha Christie, and if so should be in Crossovers.
