First Nominations Questions

[modzilla]

Thank you for all the nominations!
Nominations instructions | Tag set

Please help me answer some questions about nominations I'm confused about or where people may have different opinions to settle.

Characters

In Crossover Fandom, "Other: Worldbuilding (Destiny & Marathon)" is nominated. Worldbuilding seems outside the scope of Crossover Fandom to me - nominator, what did you have in mind?

I have also already approved "Group: Alex Rider (Alex Rider)/Artemis Fowl (Artemis Fowl)" in Crossover Fandom, but please could I hear further from the nominator to clarify whether this means book characters, recent adaptation characters, or something else?

Similarly, for "Group: Susan Pevensie (Narnia)/Boromir (Lord of the Rings)", and for other Crossover Fandom pairings, please indicate which version of canon each character is coming from.

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, could I check that "Kira Yoshikage" and "Killer Queen" are separate characters?

In Kushiel's Legacy, an "Original Character (Kushiel's Legacy)" has been nominated. Could the nominator please narrow down what sort of character, and in what time period in the series, you are interested in?

In Original Work, "Other: Worldbuilding (OW)" is nominated. Unfortunately I will not approve that tag for this fandom, as it is too broad, but the nominator is welcome to nominate another character for Original Work instead.

In Star Wars Legends: Clone Wars: Gambit Series - Karen Miller, the relationship "Qui-Gon Jinn/Obi-Wan Kenobi & Greti" is nominated, but it looks as though Qui-Gon does not appear in this series. Could the nominator please confirm they mean Qui-Gon, or is this meant to be Anakin?

All Media Types, & Related Fandoms

For Divergent - All Media Types - no book or movies preference?

For Dragon Age (Video Games) - is this how the fandom usually handles this in exchanges or is there a case for splitting up? I will approve this if there is no further input, but wanted to raise it for discussion.

For Hunger Games Series - All Media Types - no book or movies preference?

Nominator of Les Misérables - All Media Types, could you please pick a version? I've already approved Hugo's book and the 25th Anniversary production. Either of those, or a different version, is fine.

There's Terminator (Movies) - is everyone OK with all Terminator characters and pairings showing up under that? For example, I have Sarah Connor, whom I osmose as having several alternate timelines. I will approve this if there is no further input, but wanted to raise it for discussion.

For The Vampire Diaries & Related Fandoms - is this how the fandom usually handles it in exchanges? What are the related fandoms?


Thank you! Next: promo post.

Hi - I nominated Worldbuilding (Destiny & Marathon) under crossover fandoms! Both games are made by the same company (Bungie), and Destiny contains several references to Marathon, including implications that they are both divergent timelines in a shared multiverse and that it's possible for objects (and possibly people) to cross between them. For worldbuilding, I would be interested in exploring how this crossover can happen and what other points of crossover or commonality might occur, as well as shared elements of their worldbuilding such as Destiny's Black Garden and the garden referenced in the unformatted "Kill Your Television" terminal in Marathon 2 (text and meta about the KYT terminal; lore entries about the Black Garden in Destiny).

If that's not sufficient for approval, that's fine! It's just something that I find really interesting and thought might be worth nominating.

Thank you for the breakdown!

It gave me pause to see the nomination because I hadn't thought of this as a crossover exchange despite allowing crossover pairings, and approving this might open the way to crossover nominations of this type between other fandoms. But why not, let's give it a go.

No problem, thank you so much! I hope it won't cause any issues.
