Nominations Clarifications Post #1

[sakuramod]

Nominations continue! As a general reminder, please disambiguate nominations – it makes approving nominations easier, and we are more likely to notice if a nomination unintentionally synned to something else (ex. because you nominated a specific version that AO3 synns to the general canon). Let us know if this already happened, or if you want to nominate specifics under the general canon!

We also have a few specific inquiries:

Incorrect formatting
If you’ve nominated in the following fandoms, please check that your nominations are in the correct format:

Loveless (Anime & Manga)

Fullmetal Alchemist - All Media Types - Edward Elric (FMA AMT)/Envy (FMA 2003) - We interpreted this as “Any version of Edward Elric shipped with only the 2003 version of Envy.” Is this what the nominator intended?
If so, we have a follow-up question: Are you ok with the tag appearing in FMA - All Media Types only? We can, for instance, move it to FMA - 2003, or duplicate it there. Crossover Fandom could also be a potential location.

Persona 5 - Akechi Goro/Yoshizawa Sumire (Persona 5 Royal Video Game) - We approved this in Persona 5, but should we separate this out to Persona 5 Royal? As far as we can tell, Yoshizawa Sumire doesn’t exist in base Persona 5, so there shouldn’t be overlap with the original game, but we can move it to a Royal-specific tag.

Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town (Video Game) -

Karina/Lara (SoS: PoOT) -
Did you mean Laura instead of Lara?

Eiji (Male Player Character)/Iori (SoS: PoOT)

Yuka (Female Player Character)/Iori (SoS: PoOT)

Yuka (Female Player Character)/Iori/Matsuyuki (SoS: PoOT)

Yuka (Female Player Character)/Linh (SoS: PoOT)
It seems that Eiji and Yuka are canon names for the Player Characters (at least in Japanese?). We can approve these tags with just Eiji and Yuka, unless you want Male/Female Player Character without specified names?

Oops, I did mean Laura! Just changed that and edited out the unnecessary player character designation. Thanks for asking!

Thank you for getting back to us! These nominations have been accepted.

For FMA, I nominated that and meant it as you interpreted it here! (“Any version of Edward Elric shipped with only the 2003 version of Envy.”)

I like it in FMA - AMT but you can put it anywhere you want to. I feel like crossover is farther away when there is already an umbrella nominated, but I don't mind it there either!

Thank you

Understood! We've accepted the nomination under All Media Types.

Hi! I was the nominator for Akechi/Sumire. I was following the exchange guidelines by nominating it under the basic Persona 5 tag because AO3 doesn't have a separate Persona 5 Royal tag to my knowledge. But since I care which specific version I get I added the specific game.

Hello! Thank you for clarifying, and we'll keep the tag under Persona 5 with the Royal disambiguation then.
