Dominion- not mine, but they all show up in the TV show. It's just that the character tags on some are canonized as movie&show because it's a direct continuation of the same universe.

[bridgetmkennitt]

Gotcha. Thanks for the heads up and I'll go ahead and approve the tags.

Just curious because I've been wondering about the rule for non-canonical pairings/groups. For the non-canonicals, I was wondering, if these characters all appear in the canon but the tag isn't already approved by AO3 because there isn't a fic with that relationship yet, why can't they be approved into the tagset? Star Trek and Wynonna Earp have nominations for typical trios in the show, so they aren't crossovers or anything, just groups without fic on AO3 with that exact tag. What if someone wants to nominate a rare pair but can't because it's so rare that there's no fic? I understand Not Prime Time is a medium fandom exchange but even rare pairs exist in medium fandoms.

[bridgetmkennitt]

Rare pairs in medium fandoms are allowed in Not Prime Time. There's been quite a few platonic and romantic two people relationships tags that haven't been AO3 canonical/had no fics written for them already approved into the tag set.

When I was deciding on switching from characters to relationships, I still wanted people to have the ability to request singular characters and threesomes/moresomes. However, the latter can get unwieldy, so my compromise to having threesomes/moresomes in the tag set was only if they're already AO3 canonical because that makes it easier for me.

I think there are some groupings in Young Justice (cartoon) and Justice League & Justice League Unlimited (cartoons) that are meant to be in the DCU TV shows. These are the ones I question:


Justice League & Justice League Unlimited (Cartoons)

Curtis Holt/Ray Palmer/Leonard Snart - I believe that the Atom appears in JLU, but I'm not sure that he's ever called Ray Palmer. I'm pretty sure that Curtis Holt isn't in JL&JLU; he's from Arrow.

[Leonard Snart/Wally West] - JL&JLU's Flash is Wally West, and Captain Cold does appear (without any other name given), so this may actually be meant for this fandom.

Ray Palmer & Eddie Thawne

Ray Palmer/Mick Rory

Ray Palmer/Mick Rory/Leonard Snart


Young Justice (Cartoon)

Curtis Holt/Leonard Snart

Curtis Holt/Ray Palmer/Leonard Snart

Jefferson "Jax" Jackson/Mick Rory/Leonard Snart

Leonard Snart/Eddie Thawne

[Leonard Snart/Wally West] - Wally West is in Young Justice. Captain Cold might be (I can't remember for sure, but there are several ice/cold villains who appear).

Ray Palmer/Mick Rory/Leonard Snart

This problem pops up when the nominations aren't disambiguated. Expect many more pairings wandering all over the place by the end of the nomination period. :/

[bridgetmkennitt]

Yup, that happens in certain fandoms, but I don't mind fixing them when needed.

[bridgetmkennitt]

Thanks for the heads up!

[crescent_gaia]

I seem to be a problem child with my pairings. I'll just go delete it. :D

[bridgetmkennitt]

Pfft, you're not a problem child at all.

Reginald Barclay/Male Holocharacter
-Is the Male Holocharacter a specific character?

There's more than one character, and yes, they are all specific characters. They are holographic versions of the Enterprise or Voyager crew, and there's Moriarty.

[bridgetmkennitt]

Unfortunately, Male Holocharacter is too broad for the nom. If this is your nomination, you can change it to a more specific holographic version.

[(Anonymous)]

Is Holocharacter of Male Enterprise Senior Officer OK?

[bridgetmkennitt]

No.

[(Anonymous)]

I've found some wandering relationships. These should be in The Closer, but not Major Crimes (TV), because Brenda's not in Major Crimes:
- Brenda Leigh Johnson & Sharon Raydor
- Brenda Leigh Johnson/Sharon Raydor

[bridgetmkennitt]

Fixed. Thanks for the heads up!
