Nominations Clarifications #1

[fadmods]

A few comments and queries in relation to nominations so far:

• DC Comics
  
  Two ships have been nominated under "DC Comics (Post Flashpoint-Present)". Our preference would be to merge this with the general "DCU (Comics)" tag, but we are open to hearing from the nominator or others interested in this fandom.
  
  
• Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms
  
  Several ships have been nominated under this umbrella fandom. Please renominate with more specific fandom tags, or provide evidence in the comments to support the use of the broad tag.
  
  
• Original Work
  
  "Sappho (fl. 600 BC)/Original Female Character(s)" has been nominated under this fandom; if the nominator does not put forward plausible reasons for this counting as Original Work within 24 hours, we will adjust so that this ship appears under "Classical Greece and Rome History & Literature RPF".
  
  
• Pitch Perfect Trilogy
  
  The nominated ship "Kelley Jakle/Shelley Regner" has been rejected; please renominate under "Pitch Perfect RPF"
  
  
• Poldark - All Media Types
  
  Four ships are currently nominated under this fandom. We would prefer to avoid "All Media Types" fandoms; please adjust to either "Poldark - Winston Graham", "Poldark (TV 1975)" or "Poldark (TV 2015)" as appropriate.

DC Comics (Post-Flashpoint to Present) is mine. Flashpoint rebooted DC universe into a new continuity with large swaths removes or heavily changed. For example, the Kara Zor-El from before Flashpoint and after are very different characters, and technically there is a third Kara Zor-El from before Crisis on Infinite Earths that continued to exist as a spirit. That is just one example.

If you insist on merging it into the others I will still request it but I will list anything before Flashpoint as a do not want, but even with nominating the way I did it is still a much larger merging of canon than the Arrowverse which is being separated out despite having connectivity of a similar level to other canons being merged.

Would it work to indicate universe in the pairing instead?

So
"DC Comics (Post Flashpoint-Present): Kara Zor-El/somebody"
becomes:
"DCU (Comics): Kara Zor-El (Post-Flashpoint)/somebody (Post-Flashpoint)"

Would that make sense?

This is an excellent suggestion, thank you!

In case you didn't see our reply to the reply, we like kmfillz's suggestion below of specifying within the pairing tag which versions of the characters you mean, rather than having a separate fandom. That way there's no ambiguity on what you match on, but we can keep DC Comics together as a fandom overall. Hope that works for you.

That works for me.
