I'm still holding off on making a final decision about this for another day or so, but it seems that most people are in favour of subdividing into different fandom tags that give more specificity about genre.
It was (very sensibly) suggested that it might help nominators to know what subdivisions there were. I am very much in favour of nominators choosing for themselves rather than me dictating anything, but it obviously doesn't make sense to have a situation where people have to use multiple fandom slots for the exact same ideas under marginally different names.
So far in the tag set I have seen the following used, as further clarification within the disambiguations in the main Original Works fandom and/or as separate fandoms:
(in alphabetical order)
Alpha/Beta/Omega
Fantasy
Fantasy/Sci-Fi
High Fantasy
Low Fantasy
Omegaverse
Post-Apocalyptic
Superheroes
Supernatural
Urban Fantasy
This is definitely not an exhaustive list, just what's currently been put forward by nominators, and if people do want to preserve fine distinctions then that's absolutely fine. The most obvious example of things that could come together are "Alpha/Beta/Omega" and "Omegaverse", unless I'm missing something?
Silmarillion
I have now approved this! Nominators, please take a look to make sure it's come through OK and I didn't mess anything up, whether calling a character by the wrong name or just misspelling Silmarillion in a disambiguation. (I took screen shots of everything before I hit submit, so I should be able to reconstruct anything that did go awry.)
