Tagset Cleaning Day 1

[mod63]

Currently unresolved issues have fandoms including

Kanjani8 (Band)
Les Miserables - All Media Types
Star Trek - TNG
Lord of the Rings (Movies)

Kanjani8 (Band)

 

• F!Ohkura Tadayoshi/everyone

Character/"everyone" is too vague. Please specify whether you mean every member of the Kanjani8 band (in that case I suggest "F!Ohkura Tadayoshi/Every Kanjani8 Member"), or something else. You may nominate using individual names if desired. You may also use "Any Kanjani8 member" if you are happy with any individual member of the group as opposed to poly/an orgy.

Les Miserables - All Media Types

 

• F!Enjolras/F!Grantaire

We are not using "All Media Types" in this exchange. Please specify which medium of Les Miserables you would prefer. I have taken the liberty of moving them to "Les Miserables - Victor Hugo" until I hear otherwise.

X-Men (Movieverse)

• Jean Grey/F!Peter Maximoff/F!Scott Summers (Alt Timeline)

Please clarify your intent. Is this more like a fandom (all characters should specifically be from the alternate continuity, separate from main continuity), a crossover (between characters from one X-Men continuity and another), a prompt (the timeline stuff is something you'd like to see happen within the continuity of the X-Men movieverse), or something else?

• Emma Frost/F!Scott Summers (Either Timeline)  
• F!Hank McCoy/Raven | Mystique (Orig Timeline)  
• Jean Grey/F!Scott Summers (Orig Timeline)  
• M!Jean Grey/Emma Frost (Either Timeline)  
• Remy LeBeau/F!Scott Summers (Orig Timeline)

Mod suspects these go in either "Original Timeline Movies" or "Alternate Timeline Movies" for X-Men. Please confirm. In the case of Emma Frost/F!Scott Summers and M!Jean Grey/Emma Frost, please pick the Timeline you'd prefer.

Assuming our instinct that these are separate movieverses is correct, we will delete "X-Men (Movieverse)" afterwards. Feel free to add nominations to these slots before that happens, as mod is not entirely clear on what happens when we do that.

Star Trek TNG

• Beverly Crusher/M!Jean-Luc Picard

Did you mean to request F!Picard?

Star Wars PT/OT/ST, and overlapping character nominations with this and crossover.

Mods are sticking a pin in this until nominations end. Please feel free to make your case on how we should resolve it, including simply leaving them all as is.

Lord of the Rings (Movies)
Several relationships were nominated in which none of the characters were 63ed. Please edit them to your desired configuration.

X-Men Movieverse is mine. They are one single movieverse with two timelines. Alternate Timeline and Original Timeline list the two timelines in the movies. There is the original and then a new one created in X-Men: Days of Future Past by original timeline Kitty sending Logan's consciousness into his past body to prevent an assassination.

Original Timeline
X-Men First Class, parts of X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men, X2: X-Men United, X-Men The Last Stand, the bad future of X-Men: Days of Future Past
Alternate Timeline
X-Men First Class, parts of X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse, Dark Phoenix, the good future of X-Men: Days of Future Past

The Wolverine and Deadpool movies are part of the X-Men Movieverse, but are easier to split up. For reference, X-Men Origins: Wolverine and The Wolverine are set in the original timeline. Deadpool and Deadpool 2 (except one scene sort of) are set in the alternate timeline. And Logan is a nebulous state where production members have given conflicting answers.

Jean Grey/F!Peter Maximoff/F!Scott Summers (Alt Timeline) - Is intended to be the Alternate Timeline Versions, just only disambiguated once instead of for every character.

Emma Frost/F!Scott Summers (Either Timeline), M!Jean Grey/Emma Frost (Either Timeline), Remy LeBeau/F!Scott Summers (Orig Timeline) - I nominated these for salazarastark and I'll let them comment on that.

Jean Grey/F!Scott Summers (Orig Timeline) - The depiction of them in the original timeline, but I was hoping to include information about the characters backstory, like Scott having an older brother, that is only shown in First Class, which is grouped with Alternate Timeline Movies, but is canon to both timelines.

They are often split up between X-Men: Alternate Timeline Movies (First Class, Days of Future Past, Apocalypse, Dark Phoenix) And X-Men: Original Timeline Movies (X-Men, X2: X-Men United, and X-Men: The Last Stand). The Wolverine movies and the Deadpool movies are also part of the same universe but are easier to separate out.

At the time I made my nominations there was no stated mod preference on if the X-Men movies were going to be broken up, so I went with what was easier for me, and following the precedent of the MCU and DC Cinematic Universe.

According to what you've written, it looks like the two universes are inextricably tangled, and your assessment that they should be merged in the tagset is correct.

Mod W's assessment is that Alt/Original Timeline specifications should be kept, like in any other case where there are multiple variants of the same character in one canon. This still means that (Either Timeline) should be split into one or the other, however.

I'll leave it up for any further thoughts or comments until tomorrow, then merge the two other fandoms into it in the morning if there's no further dissent.

Thanks for all your hard work so far, mods! As far as the Star Wars overlap chaos goes, I'm mostly used to seeing exchanges leave them as they are - people who want OT!Luke, for example, are often after something quite different from people who want ST!Luke.

I've also spotted a couple of SW-related duplicates:

Crossover Fandom - Qi'ra (Solo)/F!Ben Solo | Kylo Ren (Star Wars ST), Qi'ra (Solo)/F!Kylo Ren | Ben Solo (SW ST). The first is the most usual name ordering for Ben/Kylo.

Star Wars ST - Rey/F!Ben Solo | Kylo Ren, Rey/F!Kylo Ren | Ben Solo. Ditto.

Thanks for the report and thanks! Duplicates have been removed.
