Nominations Closed - Next

Thank you for all your nominations! There's much for me to get through (183 unapproved fandoms, and the Characters In Already-Approved Fandoms start of the screen currently cuts off at B). Since there are already roughly as many fandoms & characters in the tag set this year as in the 2020 tag set, it will hopefully be a good year for this exchange.

I hope to put up another query post somewhere in the next 25-30 hours. Please check back through previous query posts for outstanding questions and comments that relate to your fandoms.

Apologies in advance for the bother, but I have a pending nomination that I only realized after the fact might have some ambiguity. If it's possible, and if it gets approved, could...

Downtown Train - Tom Waits (Music Video)
Group: The Boxer/The Sailor (Downtown Train)
Group: The Boxer/The Sailor & The Baby (Downtown Train)

...be changed to...

Downtown Train - Tom Waits (Music Video)
Group: The Catholic Boxer/The Sailor (Downtown Train)
Group: The Catholic Boxer/The Sailor & The Baby (Downtown Train)

...or something like that?

There's another character in the music video who's played by a famous boxer, and I don't want someone to think that's who I meant. I'm really aiming for the guy with the punching bag and the shrine to the Virgin Mary in his apartment.

Not a silly question at all, and I'm fine with having it changed to The Man with the Baby or The Blindfolded Man if it's reaching. But it's the combination of the high and tight haircut, the fact that he's using a Navy sea bag as a pillow, and while I don't think they're the real deal I think his pants are supposed to be passing as the older uniform bell bottoms. They're too flared for both the time the video was made and the era it's trying to evoke, and the styling in the rest of the video seems very deliberate. (It's a Jean-Baptiste Mondino joint.)

Noticed a duplicate pair in Sleuth of Ming Dynasty
