Nominations Clarification Post #3

[mod63]

• Daredevil (TV), The Defenders (TV): These were nominated separately, but appear to be part of a shared continuity with significant character overlap. Is there a preferred umbrella fandom tag?
• Final Fantasy VII Remake: We already approved Compilation of Final Fantasy VII as nominated, but are now unclear on what is contained under that heading, as there seem to be differences between the original canon and the remake canon of FFVII but the remake is considered part of the compilation? Nominators of either or both of these fandoms, can you help resolve this?
• Scarecrow & Mrs. King: Original characters are not permitted in this exchange. If more specific characters are not selected, mod will approve the nominated OC ships as "F!Lee Stetson & None."

Tolkien bookverse nominations (Lord of the Rings, Silmarillion, Hobbit) are approved under Tolkien J.R.R. - Works. If any nominations come in for (on the one hand) movieverse or (on the other) non-Arda Tolkien works, they will be approved separately.

From previous posts:

• Batman - All Media Types: Please choose a more specific fandom. If not, mod will approve as DCU Comics.
• Peter Pan & Related Fandoms: Please choose a more specific fandom. If not, mod will approve as Peter Pan - J.M. Barrie.
• DC's Arrowverse (F!Oliver Queen/Any): Please choose a more specific character. If not, mod will approve ships with Any as "Character & None."
• DCU (Comics) (F!Roy Harper/Any): Please choose a more specific character. If not, mod will approve ships with Any as "Character & None."
• Dragon Age (Video Games) (F!Warden/F!Alistair): Please choose a more specific character. If not, mod will approve "F!Warden" as "Female Cousland."
• Voltron: Legendary Defender (F!Keith/any Shiro clone, F!Shiro/any Shiro clone): Please choose more specific characters. If not, mod will approve the nominated "any clone" ships as Kuron.
• The Witcher (TV) (F!Jaskier/OFC, F!Jaskier/OMC): Please choose more specific characters. If not, mod will approve the nominated OC ships as "F!Jaskier & None."

Thanks everyone for your help so far!

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake & Compilation of Final Fantasy VII

Thank you! What I meant is, I understand that FFVII original game and FFVII remake might be different enough that people who are only familiar with one might not want to match to someone requesting/offering the other, and I have no problem accepting them as "different fandoms" in this sense - but I'm having trouble wrapping my brain around whether FFVII, FFVIIR, or both are encompassed by the "Compilation of Final Fantasy VII" tag and if that might create problems. Sorry, does that make sense?

Compilation of Final Fantasy VII definitely includes Before Crisis, Crisis Core, Advent Children, Dirge of Cerberus, the original game, along with several books and animated specials. Final Fantasy VII Remake has had contradictory word of god statements on whether or not it is part of the Compilation and the in game evidence is inclusive at this point. So in terms of what goes in Compilation of Final Fantasy VII the original game is a "yes" and Final Fantasy VII Remake is "no one is knows for sure yet".

Thank you! As long as there's a shared fandom understanding (at least at this time) that the Compilation tag includes the original game but not the remake, I can approve the remake as a separate fandom while leaving the Compilation fandom as-is.

I really appreciate all your tag clarification help!
