Hi all! We have some questions about nominations, starting with some very specific questions for specific nominators and moving into questions for everyone.

If you're the nominator of these fandoms, please let us know your intention with the nomination:

Akame ga Kill! (Anime & Manga): Do you want the anime or manga? Or is there a compelling reason to say both are typically vidded together?

Fate/Grand Order: Which part of this franchise are you looking for? Or should this be an Umbrella fandom?

Hadestown - Mitchell: Are you looking for a specific performance, or all performances?

Hustle: Which source named Hustle are you looking for? We see a lot of exact title matches.

Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead - Stoppard: Are you looking for a specific performance, or all performances?

悪魔のリドル | Akuma no Riddle | Riddle Story of Devil: The anime is on the pre-disqualification list. Is the nominator looking for the manga?

Some questions about the definition of fandoms:

A classic Marvel question: 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.

A same-fandom-with-two-nominations question: We've had this fandom nominated two different ways: Off Book: The Improvised Musical (Podcast) and a single episode of this podcast Every Place I Cry (Podcast). 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?

The two options are:
Every Place I Cry (Podcast) and therefore Off Book: The Improvised Musical (Podcast) [UMBRELLA]

OR

Off Book: The Improvised Musical (Podcast) and the nominator who wants the single episode notes that in optional details.

And a terminology question for everyone: Does a fandom nominated as "films starring ACTOR" make sense as a fandom? Would you interpret that to mean "all of that actor's roles" or "some of that actor's roles"? If your answer is "some," how would you determine which roles counted?
