State of the Tagset

[pumpkinkingmod]

We currently have 958 accepted fandoms. I have just over 100 left to go through. I have not gone through and done many corrections yet, but if you see something that needs to be fixed then drop a message here.

This post will be edited as I have additional questions.

Unusual Tags - My new strategy for tags that wander even after disambiguation is to use ridiculous disambiguation. So if you see something with like "Moss Covered Unicorn" or "Dear Fishmonger" that was me.


Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (TV)
Framework AIDA (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) – She seems to be the same person as regular AIDA.

DC Prime Earth
Alan Scott – Did you mean New Earth or Earth 2? He doesn’t seem to exist on Prime Earth.
Jay Garrick – Did you mean New Earth or Earth 2? He doesn’t seem to exist on Prime Earth. He is already nominated under Earth 2.

Dragon Age (Video Games)
Dragon Age: Last Flight has been split from the video games.
Male Warden (Dragon Age) – The fandom guidelines specifically said to nominate based on Origin last name.

Hockey RPF
I have both Hockey RPF and Women’s Hockey RPF. Would you prefer I merge the two or have Men’s Hockey RPF and Women’s Hockey RPF?

Fate/stay night & Related Fandoms
It looks like I’ll need to divide this up into subfandoms. I was thinking one section for everything connected with the original Fate/stay night and then putting everything else into their own sections?

Green Gables Fables Did the nominator mean to nominate the books not the webseries as some characters are disambiguated with “(books)” added on? If no response is given I will assume that Green Gables Fables was intended and will accept it as such.

Marvel 616
Lunella Lafayette | Devil Girl – What is the difference between Lunella as Devil Girl and as Moon Girl?

Once Upon a Time (TV)
Liam (Once Upon a Time: Swan Song) & Liam Jones – Are these different characters?

Star Wars Legends - All Media Types – Is there any good way to subdivide this nomination or to rename it? Characters under it for reference.
Corran Horn
Jaina Solo
Mara Jade
Thrawn | Mitth'raw'nuruodo
Tycho Celchu
Ysanne Isard

Supergirl (TV 2015)
Clark Kent (Supergirl - don't migrate) – Nominator, I love you. Nothing wrong with your nomination. I just wanted to tell you that seeing someone disambiguate for migrating tags made me tear up a little.

The Chronicles of Chrestomanci - Diana Wynne Jones
the Dwight – I can find nothing on this character.

All nominations except the ones I have questions about have been processed.

Star Wars isn't my nom but I'll take a crack at it.

Those are indeed all Legends characters. I'm not sure why you want to rename/subdivide it. Is it because of the "All Media Types" tag? Star Wars Legends mainly consists of novels but there are enough comic books (and maybe other media, I can't recall) that the canonical tag is AMT. You could perhaps make a Star Wars Legends novels tag if AMT is the issue?

If the issue is that the tag is too broad, then I am pretty sure these characters would all fit under "Star Wars Legends: New Republic Era - All Media Types". However, it depends when the original nominator intended to request them, as most of the characters live beyond the end of the New Republic.

As for splitting... if you go by where the characters first appeared (I've listed them below), it would be possible to split the characters into "Star Wars Legends: X-wing Series - Aaron Allston & Michael Stackpole" and "Star Wars Legends: Thrawn Trilogy - Timothy Zahn". However, there's a lot of crossover between the Legends sub-series and all of these characters appear in other series. (Corran Horn & Tycho Celchu both appear in Thrawn Trilogy, etc.)


Corran Horn - first appearance Missed Chance (prequel to X-Wing: Rogue Squadron)
Jaina Solo - first appearance The Last Command (Thrawn Trilogy #3)
Mara Jade - first appearance Heir to the Empire (Thrawn Trilogy #1)
Thrawn | Mitth'raw'nuruodo - first appearance Heir to the Empire (Thrawn Trilogy #1)
Tycho Celchu - first appearance Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron: The Rebel Opposition
Ysanne Isard - first appearance X-Wing: Rogue Squadron

Yes, it is the All Media Types that is the issue. I have Knights of the Old Republic separated out so I don't want to use a misleading All Media Types tag. If they are all novel characters then I'll just use Star Wars Legends novels since it appears I don't have any novels separated out for Legends. Thank you.

Depending on how you categorize things, Thrawn may technically be All Media Types as he appears in the Rebels cartoon as well as Legends novels, but he does not appear in KOTOR. Although he's primarily associated with Legends.

/a May the 4th mod who was annoyed because there was no good way to categorize him this year.
