Tagset Open!

Chocolate Box lives and is now accepting nominations! You are able to nominate up to seven fandoms and seven relationships in those fandoms.

You can find the tag set here!

This year, we are changing how nominations are to be formatted! This is to hopefully reduce duplicate nominations, reduce tag migration, and make the nomination process smoother for everyone. It is as follows:
  • Characters in any given relationship are to be ordered in alphabetical order with reference to the first part of each character's name being used, as you read left to right. That is, if the family name goes first, then by family name. If the given name comes first, by given name. This does not apply to Original Works or Crossovers.
  • All nominations must contain at the end, inside parentheses (), the name of the canon (or a truncated version as necessary).
A nomination that does not meet this criteria will not be approved.

In terms of nominations generally:
  • just about any fandom is eligible;
  • You must nominate relationship(s) inside a fandom;
  • The characters must appear in the fandom nominated;
  • Please remember that "Character A/Character B" is shipfic, "Character A & Character B" is genfic, and "Character A/Character B & Character C" is shipfic that also has a gen component involving Character C;
  • There is no limit on the number of characters that can be in a combination other than the AO3 character limit;
  • Objects can be nominated in tags;
  • Crossovers must be nominated in "Crossover Fandom", which is already nominated.
  • Original Works are okay and we have nominated that fandom for you already;
You will be required to offer two tags per fandom on signups (unless only one relationship tag is nominated), so please keep that in mind when nominating.

For specific fandoms:
  • Dragon Age - please nominate as "Dragon Age (Video Games)"
  • Marvel Cinematic Universe - please only nominate characters who have appeared in the movies into this fandom.
  • Marvel Netflix series - please nominated as "Defenders (TV)".
  • Star Wars - please nominate in terms of "Star Wars Prequel Trilogy", "Star Wars Original Trilogy", "Star Wars Sequel Trilogy" etc.
  • Arrowverse - please nominate into "DC's Arrowverse" and not individual titles.
  • Angel and Buffyverse - please nominate into "Buffyverse (TV)"
  • Stargate - please nominate as "Stargate - All Media Types"
  • Marvel and DC Comics - please nominate main continuity into Marvel (Comics) and DCU (Comics), and you can put specific runs into the parentheses instead of the fandom for these nominations only. Titles that are explicit alternate realities such as Age of Apocalypse, Marvel 1602 etc. can be nominated as specific titles.
  • Pokemon - please nominate the main games under "Pocket Monsters | Pokemon (Main Video Game Series)", the anime under "Pocket Monsters | Pokemon (Anime)", and everything else under specific titles.

Please watch this comm for updates about clarifications, merging of fandoms, and general administrative enquiries! If you have any questions, drop them here!

Tagset approval may be slow until 25 December due to real life work commitments.

Finally, all anonymous comments are screened unless they include your AO3 name. Thank you!

HP Noms not showing up in Tagset

Hi!

Just curious since it's been a bit since a few Harry Potter noms went in and other nominations in that batch had been approved -- are the mods waiting to approve nominations for certain fandoms, or is Harry Potter - JKR not an eligible fandom for this year's chocolate box?

Great! I'll be on the lookout for the query post then! Got a bit nervous about nominating tags wrong/in an improper format.

I just realized I typo'd one of my tags!

In Fire Emblem Three Houses,

Hubert von Vestera & Mercedes von Martritz

should be

Hubert von Vestra & Mercedes von Martritz

without the second "e" in Vestra. Thank you!!

Re: misspelling in a tag/name

Sorry I just saw this

The ship name is currently, Hua Chen/Xie Lan & Ban Yue (Tian Guan Ci Fu) but it should be Hua Cheng/Xie Lan & Ban Yue (Tian Guan Ci Fu). (The G is missing from Hua Cheng's name...)

I'm so sorry about that.

Would it be possible to add this info to the pinned post with the schedule, or at least link to a post with the basic info?

Multiple people I know have expressed interest in joining for the first time, but because the basic exchange info is so hard to find/vague to a newcomer and written as if everyone participating has participated before, it's really off-putting and they often end up overwhelmed and not wanting to bother. :\

Oh my god, you're going to hate me... I messed up Xie Lian's name too... The tag should be Hua Cheng/Xie Lian & Ban Yue. I don't know how I managed to mess up both of their names so badly, considering I spelled them right everywhere else. I'm so sorry ;; ~~ ;;

Are there any guidelines for nominating a group whose members are not all definitely named within canon? There's an endearing polyamorous collective in a fandom of mine, which is of indeterminate size and introduces new characters pretty regularly, and I'd like to request a story about them, but I can just nominate relationships between named members of that group if it works better.
