Do you see duplicate characters? Characters that don't belong in a fandom due to traveling bug? Characters that were nominated/approved but aren't showing up? Discrepancies on fandoms/characters that were approved? Something else concerning the tag set? Let us know within the comments below so we can fix it.

NPT 2014 tag set

Comments

Dropping this comment concerning the tags in The Hobbit and Silmarillion.

[lynndyre]

Narvi ought to be able to be nominated for the Silmarillion, since it's when they lived? But the name is mentioned in LOTR - Narvi is the dwarf stonemason who works with Celebrimbor, who definitely IS a Silmarillion character.

Kid Loki is a Marvel (Comics)/Marvel 616/Young Avengers character who doesn't belong in Thor (Movies) fandom.

The character in Elementary (TV) fandom should be listed as Ms. Hudson, not Mrs. Hudson.

Fixed!

Cardinal Richelieu in the Musketeers (2014) seems to have gotten corrected to the historical figure, but should just be 'Cardinal Richelieu' or 'Richelieu'.

[bridgetmkennitt]

Looking at the tag, it seems that Armand Jean du Plessis de Richelieu is the parent tag (with fandoms d'Artagnan Romances (Three Musketeers Series) - All Media Types, Les Trois Mousquetaires | The Three Musketeers - Alexandre Dumas, The Musketeers (2014), The Three Musketeers (1993), The Three Musketeers (2011) connecting to it) with Cardinal Richelieu and Richelieu synning to it.

[lynndyre]

I'm not totally clear on how the tagging works, does this mean that it defaults back to 'Armand Jean du Plessis de Richelieu', even if that's not really correct for all of the associated fandoms?

[bridgetmkennitt]

It means that the name that pops when someone starts typing in Richelieu is Armand Jean du Plessis de Richelieu for The Musketeers (2014), just like if I start typing in Derek in Teen Wolf, I'd get Derek Hale. It doesn't mean people automatically have to use it, but a lot of people do go with the canonical name in The Musketeers (2014). However, you can always email Support about this wrangling issue.

I still think Puella Magi Madoka Magica should be switched back to Puella Magi Madoka Magica & Related Fandoms. There are characters in it that don't ever appear in basic Puella Magi Madoka Magica. You are doing all this work to make absolutely sure that other characters are in the right fandom, and aren't listed in fandoms they don't appear in, yet you switched a fandom to a name that is misleading. Puella Magi Madoka Magica is just the series and the three movies, maybe the audio dramas that came with the DVDs. Puella Magi Madoka Magica & Related Fandoms contains the series, movies and multiple manga series. A lot of people are familiar with only the show/movies and nothing else. Since it is a small cast it isn't unreasonable that someone would just select "any" since the fandom doesn't indicate that it contains more than just the basic series/movie.

I'm going to leave it as the canonical as "Kazumi Magica, Madoka Magica, Mahou Shoujo Kazumi Magica | Puella Magi Kazumi Magica, Mahou Shoujo Kazumi Magika | Puella Magi Kazumi Magica, Mahou Shoujo Madoka, Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magika & Related Fandoms, Mahou Shoujo Oriko Magica | Puella Magi Oriko Magica, Mahou Shoujo Oriko Magika | Puella Magi Oriko Magica, Mahou Shoujo Puella Magi Madoka, Mahō Shōjo Madoka Magika | 魔法少女まどか☆マギカ | Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Pmmm - Fandom, Puella Magi Kazumi Magica, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Puella Magi Madoka Magica/魔法少女まどか★マギカ, Puella Magi Madoka☆Magica, Puella Magi Oriko Magica" are all the fandoms synned to it, including one that says & Related Fandoms. However, you can write to Support about this wrangling issue and they can talk with the fandom's wrangler about it.

Not about the nominations.

Please tell me you're opening for art too. Pretty pretty please? ;___; I'm finding only gift exchanges for fanfiction, and unless I sign up and write a crappy fanfiction making my recipient unhappy, I can subscribe to none of them. I feel so depressed, there's something like 7 gift exchanges opening right now and *every* of them open for fanfic writers only. Please, let me know if you are open to it? :(

[bridgetmkennitt]

While the main part of the exchange is fic only (writing a complete story over 1000 words in English), the treat portion of the exchange does allow for art. Prime Time Madness 2014: "Prime Time Madness 2014 is a collection primarily for treats consisting of stories under 1000 words, icons, podfics, vids, etc. If you need us to host a non-fic work, whether temporarily or permanently, please contact us at notprimetime AT gmail DOT com."

All prompts will be opened a few days after sign ups close.

[ghiaccio]

Thanks for replying.

Treats means I can only give a gift, I can't post my own request (a prompt/character/pairing) and expect a gift in return, am I correct? Well, that's depressing. I suppose I'll have to just give up.
