Nominations are open!

Apologies for the delay. Nominate here. Nomination guidelines follow:

Nominations

You may nominate up to ten fandoms, with ten relationships per fandom. Please use canonical tags for fandoms where possible. A list of fandoms with known exceptions (e.g., large meta-series such as Tamora Pierce's Tortall and C.J. Cherryh's Alliance-Union) is posted below.

Relationships

You may nominate either platonic (&) or romantic (/) relationships. You may also nominate single characters; use the format "Solo: Character". Crossovers are permitted under the "Crossover" fandom.

For crossovers, both canons must be individually eligible for this exchange. You must include the original fandom in parentheses after each character's name. The fandom name may be shortened or abbreviated, provided it is still clear which fandom you are referencing.

Sample acceptable nominations:

  • Dracula/Jonathan Harker
  • Solo: Temeraire
  • ART (Murderbot) & Deep Thought (Hitchhikers' Guide)
You may also use "any [group]" in nominations, provided that this is something that is clearly understood within the context of the canon. For example:

  • Temeraire - "Solo: Any Male Dragon" or "Any Dragon & Their Captain"
  • Provost's Dog - "Beka Cooper/Any Provost's Guard Member"

Please note that "any" nominations will only cover named canon characters.

You may also nominate original characters, provided that the description for the original character is clearly understood within the context of the canon. For example:

  • Temeraire - "Original Dragon & Their Female Captain"
  • Provost's Dog - "Solo: Original Nonbinary Provost's Guard Member"

Nominations that are simply "Original Female Character" or similar will be rejected as being too broad. However, these characters will be accepted as part of a relationship with a specific canon character(s).

Additionally, you may nominate Worldbuilding as a relationship nomination for your preferred canon. You can leave it as “WB: Any” for a broad focus, or give a specific in-universe aspect that you would like to see expanded on. 


Examples [Canon]:

  • WB: Spider Courtship [Children of Time]
  • WB: Dragons in China [Temeraire]
  • WB: The Black Tower [Wheel of Time]

Canons approved to be subdivided

This list will be updated as nominations are approved.

  • Alliance-Union - C.J. Cherryh
  • Discworld - Terry Pratchett
  • Kushiel's Legacy - Jacqueline Carey
  • Nine Worlds Series - Victoria Goddard
  • Tortall - Tamora Pierce
  • Valdemar Series - Mercedes Lackey
 
Other Series Exceptions

This list will be updated as nominations are approved.

Fandom Nomination Question

[personal profile] sophiegaladheon 2024-02-28 08:38 am (UTC)(link)
I wanted to ask if I could nominate the Greenwing and Dart Series and The Lays of the Hearthfire series as separate fandoms. They both fall under the cannonical tag Nine Worlds Series - Victoria Goddard. Each series follows a different set of characters and they can be read as standalone series. I know it might be questionable because characters from one series are mentioned/occasionally show up in the background of the other series, but I wondered if the Nine Worlds Series is a candidate for being subdivided.
