2022: Clarification Post 2

[flowersforgraves]

Excited to see all the new nominations coming in! However, I do have some more queries and notes about both the medium tagset and the fandom/characters tagset.


Final Fantasy XIV
Alisaie Leveilleur
This character is already in the tagset in a disambiguated form as Alisaie Leveilleur (FFXIV). I will hold off on rejecting this as long as I can, so you don't lose that slot in case you want to nominate something else. Depending on how other nominations come in, I may need to reject it if you don't remove the nomination.

Marvel Cinematic Universe
James "Bucky" Barnes; Sam Wilson (Marvel); Steve Rogers
These nominations need to be disambiguated with something like "(Marvel CU)" to prevent them from accidentally joining other fandoms like Marvel 616. If these nominations are not disambiguated by the next time I put up a clarification post, I will disambiguate the current nominations and accept them, but will not disambiguate any further nominations in this fandom.



Audio and/or Visual - Lyrics Graphic -- is this substantially different from Lyricstuck? The definition I have for Lyricstuck is

Definition: Various pieces of fanart (drawn by the creator) presented in a sequential / comic style with thematically relevant song lyrics overlaid.

If I don't hear back, I'll reject this nomination at the end of the nomination period.

In-Universe Publication - Magazine Article/Spread -- I actually have two separate questions about this. Firstly, we do already have a few article/column freeforms, such as "In-Universe Publication - Gossip Column," "In-Universe Publication - Magazine or Newspaper Interview," "In-Universe Publication - News Article," and "In-Universe Publication - Tabloid Article." Would any of these get at what you're looking for out of the freeform? Additionally, I'm not sure my research about a magazine spread is conclusive whether or not it must include images. Was the intent to include images? I'm happy to accept "Magazine Spread" with images, but I do need to know what your intent was for the definition post.

I'm the nominator for "Magazine Article/Spread", and I don't think it would be covered by any of the existing freeforms. I intended this to mean an editorial or profile (on a person or event)-style magazine spread, such as say the article Christine Everhart wrote about Tony Stark in Iron Man 1. I don't think "Magazine or Newspaper Interview" or "News Article" cover this, since I don't think profiles are interviews per se or news articles necessarily (and certainly "Gossip Column" or "Tabloid Article" would not serve this function.)

I would be happy for the nom to be split into two, for a spread with images and one without! Either is possible and both alternatives involve writing + a potential graphic design element if the creator wants to go there.

Awesome, thanks! I'm happy to split into two and accept both. I'll take care of that shortly.

Thank you! 💛

I'm the nominator for Lyrics Graphic, for me I had to google Lyricstuck and from my understanding it also had to be in video format. For the graphic it doesn't have be the be drawn it's graphic design but the text is used as a graphic element see:

Hope this clarifies!

ooh I love these, I understand the difference now!

(Edit: lyricstucks do not have to be in video format, but I understand that lyrics graphics are different from lyricstucks)

[flowersforgraves]

Gotcha! As simplecoffee said, lyricstuck works don't have to be videos, but I understand your nomination better now. I'm happy to accept it as-is. Thanks for getting back to me.
