Clarification on nominated fandoms

There are some fandoms nominated that, as far as AO3 and FFN numbers are concerned, are Yuletide-sized and not eligible for Not Prime Time. If the nominators could either comment below with additional evidence pointing to the medium size of the fandom or change their nominations to something else, that would be great.

Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Power Rangers Dino Thunder
Power Rangers Ninja Storm
Sweeney Todd - Sondheim/Wheeler
Vampire Chronicles - Anne Rice
Winx Club

For the nominator of Fire Emblem Series, was there a specific game of Fire Emblem you wanted to nominate? It looks like this is like the Final Fantasy series, in that for the most part, each game has a different set of characters.

oh, i nominated Fire Emblem. :) it was meant to be a nomination for the series in its entirety, since most of the individual games would not be large enough for this exchange on their own (i saw that Harvest Moon had been accepted, so i assumed this was alright). but i can change my nomination if you want?

I nominated Dino Thunder - it was ruled ineligible for Yuletide a few years ago, and that was what I was operating under. (That was the year they let in every season of Power Rangers EXCEPT for Mighty Morphin and Dino Thunder.)

How do we know if a fandom is eligible or not?

I nominated VampChron. It's definately not Yuletide sized - what it is is underground because its creator has a history of threatening to sue, and harasssing creators and archivists of fanworks. The major archive was most recently on adultfanfiction.net but that's been gone awhile. It got kicked off ff.net years ago.

Yahoo answer on this.

LJ community, defunct.

It might qualify for Yuletide on grounds of no new material for a long time, though.

As I said in the other comment Winx Club does have over 1000 fics if you change the ratings selection to all. Otherwise it just counts the fics up to the Teen rating.

I nominated Power Rangers Ninja Storm. It has >200 works and wasn't on the Yuletide lists. (I didn't nominate DT, but the same applies to it: over 200 works, not on the Yuletide lists.)

Edit. Work counts on AO3 - ff.net doesn't distinguish by season.

Workaround: I just nominated Power Rangers as a whole. Because that? Qualifies.

(Do note that it's not going to let you nominate chars you'd nominated for DT even if you erased that nomination because they'd been nominated in another fandom even that's been already erased. Ugh. But there are workarounds; we now have a char tag for the Winds and there can be a char tag for the Dinos, or the Dino core three.)

No problem, nomination changed.
