Hi!

- There's a spelling error in "Aging Female Lighthhouse Keeper/Ghostly Mermaid (OW)"
- Capitalization issue with "alpha twin/omega twin (OW)"
- Unclosed bracket in "Pack Alpha Mother/Newly Presented Daughter (OW"
- Unnecessary(?) brackets around the ship "(Zoe Morgan/Root | Samantha Groves) (PoI)"

[(Anonymous)]

Forgot to say: capitalization issue with "Artoria Pendragon | Saber/Tohsaka Rin (Fate/stay night)"

[rfemod]

Thank you for the head's up, but that is how the spelling is in the fandom tag itself so I kept it as it was. :)

Queen of a Wicked Reputation But Secretly Kind Heart/Her Arranged Marriage Wife (OW) and
Queen With Evil Reputation But A Secretly Kind Heart/Her Arranged Marriage Bride (OW)
Aren’t exact duplicates, but they’re similar enough to maybe be confusing/ accidentally cause a missed match?

[rfemod]

Thank you for catching that! You are right that they are very similar. "Queen With Evil Reputation But A Secretly Kind Heart/Her Arranged Marriage Bride (OW)" has been removed. :)

[rfemod]

Thanks for catching those! They should all be fixed now. :D

It looks like P3 has a few duplicates!

Shiomi Kotone is one of the Female P3 Protag's names, so it looks like a few got double booked:

Elizabeth/Female Persona 3 Protagonist (P3)
Elizabeth/Shiomi Kotone (P3)

Hasegawa Saori/Female Persona 3 Protagonist (P3)
Hasegawa Saori/Shiomi Kotone (P3)

[rfemod]

Thank you for catching that! The tags with "Shiomi Kotone" have been removed! :)

I'm not sure about the Jim Jimenez ships (Archie/Jim Jimenez (OFMD), Jim Jimenez/Spanish Jackie (OFMD), Archie/Ching Shih | Zheng Yi Sao/Jim Jimenez (OFMD)) -- I haven't seen Season 2 of Our Flag Means Death, but Jim doesn't identify as woman-adjacent in Season 1.

Re: Jim Jimenez

Season 2 doesn’t change that. They’re canonically non-binary with some emphasis on “not a woman.” I didn’t say anything because I don’t want to knock other people’s noms, but it does feel a little…

Re: Jim Jimenez

[rfemod]

Unfortunately, I was unfamiliar with the fandom so I appreciate hearing from other people who do know what is going on. From what I had researched, they seemed to just go by they/them (and their actor is NB too) and their initial presentation as a man was a disguise/playing on assumptions but if I am wrong, I would like to know and I can adjust the tagset accordingly.

Re: Jim Jimenez

Yes, Jim is nonbinary and not a man, and I understand that ships containing genderqueer characters can be eligible, but I thought that they were similar to LaFontaine from the Carmilla webseries (I believe Lola Perry/S. LaFontaine was given as an example of something ineligible because LaFontaine is decidedly not a woman?)

Re: Jim Jimenez

[rfemod]

When I was thinking of ineligible characters, I was thinking of LaFontaine or even Janet from The Good Place, who does repeatedly say "not a girl". I know the line is probably thin, but have they done and said things that fall on that side? Because yes, then they wouldn't be eligible.

Re: Jim Jimenez

I'm not sure about Season 2, but they say "I don't know" and "hadn't really thought about that" to being asked if they're a woman after they take off their disguise in Season 1...which I know isn't as conclusive as LaFontaine or Janet.

Re: Jim Jimenez

[rfemod]

I appreciate all the information you've given! Since it isn't as conclusive and I let the nominations in, I'm going to leave it this time and then look into a little more after this round and possibly reconsider for the next one. Thank you for letting me know and answering all my questions! :)

Sounds good, thank you!

Another duplicate: Cere Junda/Trilla Suduri (Jedi: Fallen Order video games). One has the same piped Trilla Suduri | Second Sister as the other nominations, one doesn’t.

[rfemod]

Thank you for catching that! The duplicate (piped version) has been removed. :D

Hi, I'm not sure if this can be changed now that sign-ups are open - some of the Ace Attorney ships only have their Japanese names in them, presumably due to tag length limits. I would like to request that the English names are used instead, since they are used much more often in the fandom and I suspect that some people may be confused/not know who they characters are if they are only referred to with their Japanese names
Tags affected and suggested changes:
Ayasato Harumi/Kidzuki Kokone/Naruhodou Minuki (Ace Attorney) -> Athena Cykes/Pearl Fey/Trucy Wright (Ace Attorney)
F!Ichiyanagi Yumihiko/Karuma Mei (Ace Attorney) -> F!Eustace Winner/Franziska von Karma (Ace Attorney)
Ichijou Mikumo/F!Ichiyanagi Yumihiko (Ace Attorney) -> Kay Faraday/F!Eustace Winner (Ace Attorney)
Ichijou Mikumo/F!Ichiyanagi Yumihiko/Karuma Mei (Ace Attorney) -> Kay Faraday/F!Eustace Winner/Franziska von Karma

[rfemod]

I did remove the piping because of tag limits and I assumed that the original names would be the right choice, but I appreciate the head's up. Since the fandom hadn't been requested yet, I went back into the tagset and made the changes that you requested. I hope it all looks okay now. :)
