Nomination Queries #2

[mod63]

Please see day 1 if you nominated Sherlock Holmes, Fire Emblem Three Houses, or Crossover Fandom.

• If you nominated House of the Dragon, The Terror, Peaky Blinders, The North Water, or Martin Eden, please make sure that your nomination contains at least one character who is swapped and that characters who are not swapped are not marked with a gender.
• Nominator of The Lighthouse, we wanted to double check that you meant Thomas Howard, as in the character played by Robert Pattinson and now going by Ephraim Winslow, paired with the original Ephraim Winslow in the backstory? Or did you want Pattinson's character as Winslow paired with Thomas Wake, Willem Dafoe's character?
• Nominator of Merlin, is "Knights" shorthand for a group of specific individuals? Could a recipient and a writer/artist for this fandom expect to be on the same page about who is being referred to by this tag? (It would also be great if you could disambiguate your nominations by putting "Merlin" in parentheses after each one.)
• Nominators of Dimension 20, Miraculous Ladybug and Chrestomanci, it seems like some of these characters have alternate canonical names that are piped in their AO3 tags. But, sometimes AO3 is dumb about this and pipes a tag for a name that no one in the fandom really uses for them; will your tags as nominated be clear to other members of the fandom?
• Nominator(s) of A Song of Ice and Fire, assuming from the nominations that people generally consider Fire and Blood to be part of this fandom?

Yes, Fire & Blood is considered part of ASoIaF and is not given its own fandom listing on AO3! F&B characters are organized as child tags for ASoIaF.

Chrestomanci nominator here: I've switched the choice of piped name to the one which is dominant and most common in the book, instead of the character's legal name. I think that will be most obvious to someone who read the book a while ago.

Thanks!

Miraculous Ladybug nominator here: I don't think there should be any confusion about who I'm referring to, but I could just change the nomination if you prefer. I didn't use the canonical names simply because they're so long. >>

It's fine, we just figured we'd check. Thanks for getting back to us!
