An Extra Few Hours in the Noms Pit

  • Feb. 4th, 2025 at 4:58 PM
Sorry for being behind on noms approvals – I spent all of Sunday evening and Monday down with a stomach bug/food poisoning/digestive unpleasantness. I'm going through the noms right now, and I've decided that everyone gets an extra 3h of noms (until 20:00 Finland) as a celebration of me being able to keep food down. There will be at least one more full clarification post. In the meanwhile, while I'm approving, I have requests for the following nominators:

The Excalibur Alternative - David Weber
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Star Wars: The Original Trilogy
Please nominate according to the instructions. Thank you! If you do not, your fandom/remaining noms will be rejected.

Machineries of Empire Series - Yoon Ha Lee
Star Wars Crossovers
Alliance-Union - C. J. Cherryh
Chanur Series - C. J. Cherryh
Please disambiguate your nominations! This means adding the fandom in (brackets) to the end, e.g. Character: Ben Pollard (Alliance-Union)

Hyperion Cantos - Dan Simmons
Stellaris (Video Game)
You don't currently have any character, relationship, or worldbuilding tags nominated. You might want to add some!

Warhammer 40.000: Rogue Trader (Video Game) – is this distinct from the other Warhammer 40.000 stuff? Should this be kept separate or merged into Warhammer 40.000?

Superman (Animated) – I might have borked your noms by accident. Also, which animated Superman?

Nodnod – comics fandoms truly are a complicated hydra. Which of the following possible fandom titles would you find most accurate to your desires:
The Death of Superman Series (2018-2019)
DC Animated Superman Movies
DC Universe Animated Original Movies
DC Animated Movie Universe

Your noms are fine! I was afraid I'd errored them out, and then AO3 did not show them to me in the random selection for a bit, but I can see them now.

I went with "Superman (animated)" in the nomination because I wanted to mainly nominate Superman. (Duh! :) But now you've poked me to think about it more, there are a lot of cool Superman-in-space things in the Justice League movies too, which don't have "Superman" in the title.

I think DC Animated Movie Universe might be the best option, because it allows Superman stuff from those other animated movies to be used if someone wants to. Especially for vids - which would be so cool.

The Death of Superman Series (2018-2019) is what inspired me to make the nomination, so if you want to make it tighter, I'd be okay with that too. Having thought about it though, I lean towards the wider option of the DCAMU.

I just took a quick look, and the tag seems to have added an autofill:

DC Animated Movie Universe (Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020))

Huh. Where are you seeing this? When I look at the tag set, I only see DC Animated Movie Universe (9) under Movies. Try refreshing the page?

It's on my nominations screen - I tried refreshing and it's still there at the top in the "fandom" slot. I can take a screencap if it helps. But if it's not showing up at your end, maybe it's just a glitch at my end.
