Tagset Nominations are Open

This is mostly a copy and paste from last year. The goblins will be around to approve things but I will be touch and go for a few days. I'm using the same fandom guidelines as last year.


Nominations are now open!

You can nominate six fandoms with six characters each.

You may nominate generic original characters such as Original Male Elf, Original Sailor Senshi, Original Tag Wrangler, etc. We will not be accepting specific original characters.

Do not use any fan nicknames when nominating characters. Describe the character instead.

We will not be accepting group or relationship nominations. If there is a character that is a special case in that they could sort of count as one individual or many then leave a comment to explain it to me.

The category of Original Works is allowed. Crossover Fandoms is not. All crossovers should be limited to your optional details.

There are three rules for RPF:
1. For contemporary RPF the individuals must be over the age of 18.
2. Non-famous friends and family are not eligible
3. The person in question can be removed from the tagset at the request of the individual

I will be prioritizing fandoms that are easy for me to accept. If you want to get your nominations accepted faster then here is how to help:
1. Check the fandom guidelines to see if your fandom should be done a specific way.
2. Disambiguate your characters. It makes it less likely for me to make mistakes and is faster. Disambiguating never hurts.
3. Make sure you are spelling the character’s name correctly, especially if the character’s name is spelt differently in different canons.
4. Link me info! If you want to link me to something like the fandom wiki page for each character then that is great! TVtropes character list page? That could work. IMDB? Wikipedia? If I don’t know a fandom I have to look it up and this will speed things up especially for small fandoms, Transformers, Tolkien, and comics.

Hello, mod!

Two of the fandoms I've just nominated are spin-offs of other canons. "Endeavour" is a prequel to the TV series "Inspector Morse", so there is some overlap of characters between the two, eg. Endeavour Morse, Jim Strange, Max DeBryn. Thought it might be worth mentioning, since "Morse" has already been nominated!

Endeavour Wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endeavour_(TV_series)

Also, the BBC series "Dickensian" is a shared universe canon, featuring characters and storylines from several Charles Dickens novels, such as "Great Expectations" and "Bleak House". In my nomination, I've entered the characters' names as specific to the TV series - eg. "Inspector Bucket (Dickensian TV)" - but I'm aware that there still might be some character tag drift.

BBC One home page for Dickensian, including a list of characters: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06vbmfq

If you need any more information on these canons, I'll be happy to help!
