We have our (hopefully) last set of nominations clarifications! We're so close to sign ups.

You can see your nominations from the AO3's nominations page, which will show you if we have approved or rejected your nominations yet. If some of your nominations have not yet been approved or rejected, please check below to see if we still need information from you!

  • Dances Choreographed by Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker: This feels like an Umbrella fandom to us: the dances were created for different companies over 40+ years. Is there any reason we should not add the Umbrella tag?
  • Lucy Worsley Documentaries [UMBRELLA]: Lucy Worsley is a writer and presenter, as well as making guest appearances on various documentaries. Is this nomination intended to include some subsection of her work (e.g. documentaries she writes or presents), or all of her appearances on documentaries?
  • Miracles (TV): There are four tv shows called Miracles.
  • Notre-Dame de Paris - Cocciante/Plamondon: Are you looking for a specific adaptation, or all productions of the musical?
  • Press Play (2022): There are two things called Press Play in 2022.
  • Rush (2013) [SAFETY]: There are three things called Rush in 2013.
  • The Paper (TV): There are two TV shows called The Paper.
  • Tiger & Bunny: Are you looking for the anime, manga, stage shows, etc, or the whole franchise?
  • 二哈和他的白猫师尊 - 肉包不吃肉 | The Husky and His White Cat Shizun - Meatbun Doesn't Eat Meat: Is this for the book or the manhua or an Umbrella? As far as we know the tv show isn't available yet - will it be coming out by October 10th?
  • 最遊記外伝 | Saiyuki Gaiden (Anime & Manga): We need to disambiguate this nomination to either anime or manga or an Umbrella fandom. (Or, if there's a compelling reason to treat the anime and manga as one fandom, please let us know.)
  • 極主夫道 | Gokushufudou | The Way of the House Husband (TV): This probably means the live action show and not the web anime, but we wanted to check!

Remaining questions from previous posts:

  • Akame ga Kill! (Anime & Manga): We need to disambiguate this nomination to either anime or manga or an Umbrella fandom. (Or, if there's a compelling reason to treat the anime and manga as one fandom, please let us know.)
  • Fate/Grand Order: Which part of this franchise are you looking for? Or should this be an Umbrella fandom?
  • R is for Rocket - Ray Bradbury: Are you looking for the short story by itself? Or for the collection of short stories that has the same name?
  • Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead - Stoppard: Are you looking for a specific performance, or all performances?
  • Sleep No More - Punchdrunk: Are you looking for a specific run or performance, or for an Umbrella fandom of all performances?
  • Soldier (1998): There are 2 1998 movies called Soldier. Which one are you looking for?
  • 悪魔のリドル | Akuma no Riddle | Riddle Story of Devil: We need to disambiguate this nomination to either anime or manga or an Umbrella fandom. (Or, if there's a compelling reason to treat the anime and manga as one fandom, please let us know.)

And finally, what does it mean to nominate "a whole fandom" for these fandoms in particular:

  • Ewoks: The Battle for Endor (1985): Wikipedia tells us that this is a a direct sequel to Caravan of Courage: The Ewok Adventure, which would make them one fandom. Is there any reason we should not consider them one fandom?
  • Films Directed by David Lynch [UMBRELLA]: Usually a films-directed-by Umbrella is very clear, but in this case this nomination cuts Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me away from the rest of Twin Peaks. Does that seem reasonable to do?
  • Hollow Knight: Silksong: Silksong is a direct sequel to Hollow Knight (and was originally going to be Hollow Knight DLC); it has the same studio, designers, artist, composer, and game engine as Hollow Knight. Does it stand alone as its own fandom or should it be combined with Hollow Knight?
  • Monument Valley 2 (Video Game): Is there a compelling reason to not include Monument Valley 1 as the same fandom?
  • Off Book: The Improvised Musical (Podcast) and the single episode of Off Book Every Place I Cry (Podcast): This fandom was nominated two different ways; looking at the fandom, it looks like this is an anthology show with a different plot every episode. Usually for an anthology show we would consider the way the fandom treats the show to decide whether the fandom is the whole show or individual episodes. Which model makes sense here? If the fandom is the whole show, asking for Every Place I Cry is an optional detail; if the fandom is Every Place I Cry, then Off Book is an Umbrella fandom request.
  • Peter Pan (Disney Animated Movies): Does this include the Tinkerbell movies?
  • The Marvels (Movie 2023): Is The Marvels (2023) a sufficiently distinct fandom from Captain Marvel? I would have called it a sequel (and so does Wikipedia). There are obviously new characters, but that's typically true for a Marvel sequel and I wouldn't call The Winter Soldier a different fandom than Captain America 1.
  • 飯戲攻心 | Table for Six (2022) [SAFETY]: Is the sequel Table for Six 2 the same fandom?
