Nominations Clarifications #6

[worldbuildingmod]

Just a few things:

Middle Earth: I am fandom-adjacent enough to this to know that there are notorious issues on AO3 with characters who have different names in different languages, and it has only just occurred to me that I may be accidentally approving the same characters under different names, since we aren't using the | canonical | tags. If that has happened, let me know (and ideally please suggest a solution).

Star Wars - Movies Only: I allowed in "slicers" even though I think technically they're never called that in the movies themselves, although they're certainly implied to exist. But I'm conscious that if I wasn't in the fandom, I would have waved it through without a second thought, and it seems silly to insist on using a different name for them when one does exist.

Magical Girl Raising Project: I think this is all sorted now, but please check. A few character tags were rejected because they already existed with slightly different disambiguation.

I will be away from the computer (but still online via smartphone when I can) for the next 48 hours or so, and so unlikely to be able to do anything particularly complicated tag-set-wise; please do carry on adding tags to give me plenty to do when I get back to it at the weekend.

I'll keep an eye out for you on the Tolkien names, but I think nearly everyone would agree that the Sindarin names are the appropriate ones to nominate, so hopefully there won't be any issue.

Thanks! That's very helpful of you.

Looks like a duplication has popped up: Elros Tar-Minyatur's Wife (Middle Earth) and Elros' Wife (Middle Earth) are the same person (she does not have a canonical name). Since Elros is nominated as Elros Tar-Minyatur it's probably easiest to keep them consistent and delete Elros' Wife from the tagset.

Thanks! Very glad you have my back on Tolkien ...
