2025: Nominations Clarifications 2

We have a returning clarification and a few new ones:

Original Work

• FM: Cis Male Serial Rapist/Serial Killer Who Is Not Cis Male (OW)
• This nomination seems to fit better under “Other:” unless you mean that the Serial Killer Character is female (either cis or trans), which could be clarified as FM: Cis Male Serial Rapist/Female Serial Killer (OW). If we do not receive clarification, this tag will be approved as Other: Cis Male Serial Rapist/Serial Killer Who Is Not Cis Male (OW)
• Deranged Queen/Unwaveringly Loyal Knight (OW)
• Nominator, this tag is missing a category. If you have a preference for the gender of the Loyal Knight, please let us know if this tag should be FM or FF. If you do not have a preference, or if we do not hear from you, we will approve this tag as Other: Deranged Queen/Unwaveringly Loyal Knight (F/Any) (OW).
• Man Who Doesn't Believe In Magic/His Witch Girlfriend Who Is Secretly Turning Him Into Her Ideal Man One Spell At A Time (OW)
• Nominator, this tag is missing a category, would it be alright to approve this as “FM: Man Who Doesn't Believe In Magic/His Witch Girlfriend Who Is Secretly Turning Him Into Her Ideal Man One Spell At A Time (OW)” ?
• MF: Older Brother Picking her Up from a Party/Wild Child Younger Sister Clad only in Body Pain (OW)
• Nominator, did you mean: MF: Older Brother Picking her Up from a Party/Wild Child Younger Sister Clad only in Body Paint (OW)? If we do not hear from you we will approve this tag as it was originally nominated.
• Multi: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntress Pursuing Him (OW)
• Nominator, this tag appears to consist of two individuals, would you prefer us to approve this as: Multi: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntresses Pursuing Him (OW) or Other: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntress Pursuing Him (OW)? If we do not hear from you, we will approve this tag as Other: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntress Pursuing Him (OW).
• Princess & Her Emotional Support Dragon & Her Parents Who Don't Approve (OW)
• Nominator, this tag is missing a category. We would like to approve it under Multi: Princess & Her Emotional Support Dragon & Her Parents Who Don't Approve (OW), would that be alright with you?
• Warrior Abandoned by His Allies/ Gentle Monster in the Woods (OW)
• Nominator, this tag is missing a category. Would it be alright to approve this one as Other: Warrior Abandoned by His Allies/ Gentle Monster in the Woods (OW)?
• Woman Newly Cursed To Be A Succubus/Witch Looking To Turn Her Into A Familiar (OW)
• Nominator, this tag is missing a category. If you would like a gender ambiguous Witch Character, please let us know, otherwise we will approve this tag as FF: Woman Newly Cursed To Be A Succubus/Witch Looking To Turn Her Into A Familiar (OW).

Please also feel free to comment below and let us know about any wandering tags, dupes, misspellings, and any other relevant tagset cleanup questions!

'allo!
Under 'Star Trek: Deep Space Nine' there is at least one double because some of the disambigs have the space and some do not. (ST: DS9) versus (ST:DS9)

Thank'ee's for all the work y'all are doing!!!!

Chirp, chirp!!

[idficmod]

We have located and assimilated the duplicates, thank you.

Looks like there might be one more DS9 duplicate: Kira Nerys/Tora Ziyal

Thanks!

[idficmod]

Thank you! One of the dupes has been removed!

MF: Older Brother Picking her Up from a Party/Wild Child Younger Sister Clad only in Body Pain (OW)
Nominator, did you mean: MF: Older Brother Picking her Up from a Party/Wild Child Younger Sister Clad only in Body Paint (OW)? If we do not hear from you we will approve this tag as it was originally nominated.

You are correct, this was supposed to be "Body Paint". Sorry for the typo!

Multi: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntress Pursuing Him (OW)
Nominator, this tag appears to consist of two individuals, would you prefer us to approve this as: Multi: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntresses Pursuing Him (OW) or Other: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntress Pursuing Him (OW)? If we do not hear from you, we will approve this tag as Other: Dragon who Can Assume Human Form/Monster Huntress Pursuing Him (OW).

Supposed to be "other". It was my last nom slot and I was dithering between the Dragon idea and a different group one. Sorry!

[idficmod]

Thank you for the clarification; we have made those updates and approved both tags. :)

Misc freeform typos:

Aromantic character has one expection who they are madly in love with
-> should be "exception"

Arranged Marriage - A and B are in an arranged marriage and C is the missing peice that helps them fall in love
-> should be "piece"

Character trying to get off descreetly by stimulating only the glans
-> should be "discreetly"

A kicks Bs ass in a fight so B promptly falls in love with A
-> "B's"

murder is a more serious commitment than marriage <3
-> punctuation should not be there

Obsession - A so far gone for B theyd let B do whatever they wanted to them (B very pleased by this)
- "they'd" (I think this may've been for the hundred-char limit but now it's higher?)

Sex pollen between mutally pining characters
-> "mutually"

Xeno - Oops Didn't Know This Alien's Sex Fluids Altered Other Species To Be Biologically Compatable For Reproduction
-> "Compatible"

[idficmod]

Thank you! We've updated these with the correct spellings!

[sheliak]

... now I see that murder and marriage tag displays as a heart here, but it was one of the borked tags in the tagset. It has now lost its heart in the tagset but I think that's better than being borked.

[twilfitt]

Noticed a duplicate in Severance of Helena Eagan/Helly R with slightly differing punctuation

[idficmod]

Hi! We weren't quite sure if Helly R and Helena Eagan had been confirmed as the same character, the sources we consulted didn't conclusively say that was true.

Is it confirmed that these are definitely the same character? If not we're okay with keeping the two separate nominations!

[twilfitt]

Hi, sorry, I think you might have misunderstood or maybe I’ve phrased it weirdly. I mean there’s “Helena Eagan/Helly R.” and “Helena Eagan/Helly R” both listed in the tagset

[idficmod]

OH! yes I'll go remove one of those thank you! Sorry about the confusion, I did misunderstand what you meant!

[confusedwriter]

For Deranged Queen/Unwaveringly Loyal Knight (OW) I'm okay with it being Other and F/Any and for Warrior Abandoned by His Allies/ Gentle Monster in the Woods (OW) I'm also okay with it being Other. Sorry for the confusion.

[idficmod]

No worries! These have now been updated!

[rovermaelstrom]

I think the Crossover Ship Elsa (Frozen - Movie or Broadway Show)/Elphaba Thropp (Movie or Broadway Show) should read Elsa (Frozen - Movie or Broadway Show)/Elphaba Thropp (Wicked - Movie or Broadway Show). I didn't nominate it so I'm not 100% sure, but that's what seems likely to me.

Also, in Star Wars: The Clone Wars there is a duplicate tag - same ship, different punctuation:

Anakin Skywalker/Ahsoka Tano (SW TCW)
Anakin Skywalker/Ahsoka Tano (SW:TCW)

Also Also (I'm just gonna keep editing this comment so I don't spam things), these OW noms should have the prefix switched from MF to FM to conform with the rest of the tagset:

MF: Exasperated King/Kidnapped Princess Who Likes This New Kingdom Much Better (OW)
MF: Gardener/Lady Who Watches Him Work
MF: Older Brother Picking her Up from a Party/Wild Child Younger Sister Clad only in Body Paint (OW)
MF: Younger Man Who Must Remain Silent Until Completing Arduous Magical Task/Older Woman Who Takes Him In

Also 3x, should the following OW MM ships be Multi?

MM: Male Alpha/His Male Alpha Boyfriend/Male Omega They Both Have a Crush On (OW)
MM: New King/His Arranged Marriage Husbands (OW)
MM: New Omega King/His Alpha Husbands (OW)

Also 4x, should the following OW MM ship be Other?

MM: Regency Gentleman/Lizard Monster (OW)

[idficmod]

Thank you!

The tag has been updated to "Elsa (Frozen - Movie or Broadway Show)/Elphaba Thropp (Wicked - Movie or Broadway Show)."

The Anakin/Ahsoka with the colon has been removed.

These OW noms are updated to:
FM: Exasperated King/Kidnapped Princess Who Likes This New Kingdom Much Better (OW)
FM: Male Gardener/Lady Who Watches Him Work
FM: Older Brother Picking her Up from a Party/Wild Child Younger Sister Clad only in Body Paint (OW)
FM: Younger Man Who Must Remain Silent Until Completing Arduous Magical Task/Older Woman Who Takes Him In

Multi: Male Alpha/His Male Alpha Boyfriend/Male Omega They Both Have a Crush On (OW)
Multi: New King/His Arranged Marriage Husbands (M/M/M+) (OW)
Multi: New Omega King/His Alpha Husbands (M/M/M+) (OW)

The Regency Gentleman and his Lizard Monster partner have been left as-is, on the assumption the original nominator desired a male lizard monster.

wandering tags

[liryian]

I think you may know this already? but these tags seem to have wandered into Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game) from Baldur's Gate:

Astarion/Karlach (Baldur's Gate)
Astarion/Karlach/Wyll (Baldur's Gate)
Astarion/Raphael (Baldur's Gate)
Astarion/Wyll (Baldur's Gate)
The Dark Urge/Enver Gortash (Baldur's Gate)
Lorroakan/Rolan (Baldur's Gate)

Re: wandering tags

[idficmod]

Thank you! We have corralled them back behind their gate.

typo

[liryian]

Descendants (Disney Movies): "Eevie/Mal" should be "Evie/Mal"

Re: typo

[idficmod]

Typo corrected, thank you!

[(Anonymous)]

It looks like we've got a pair of duplicate tags

Sparring as foreplay
sparring as foreplay:

One with a capital S, one with a lowercase s and a colon at the end

[(Anonymous)]

We also have

Stranded somewhere together and have to rely on each other to survive
Stranded Together & Have To Rely On Each Other To Survive

[idficmod]

Sparring with the colon and "Stranded somewhere..." have both been removed, thank you!

[shadaras]

The following tags have wandered into "Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)"
Astarion/Karlach (Baldur's Gate)
Astarion/Karlach/Wyll (Baldur's Gate)
Astarion/Raphael (Baldur's Gate)
Astarion/Wyll (Baldur's Gate)
The Dark Urge/Enver Gortash (Baldur's Gate)
Lorroakan/Rolan (Baldur's Gate)

Also, this freeform tag looks like a relationship nom?
"Deity Who Cares About The Worshipper More Than They Expected/Devout Worshipper"

[idficmod]

Baldur's Gate folks have been herded back into their proper fandom, and that freeform tag has been converted into an "Other: Deity Who Cares About The Worshipper More Than They Expected/Devout Worshipper (OW)" relationship. Thanks!

[withthekeyisking]

Found a duplicate in Crossover Fandom!

Elsa (Frozen - Movie or Broadway Show)/Elphaba Thropp (Movie or Broadway Show)
Elsa (Frozen - Movie or Broadway Show)/Elphaba Thropp (Wicked - Movie or Broadway Show)

[idficmod]

Thank you! Elsa (Frozen - Movie or Broadway Show)/Elphaba Thropp (Movie or Broadway Show) has been removed in favor of the more clearly stated tag!
