Yet more tag clarifications.... forever... but boy are we having a good time, right?

Tagset | Nomination Guidelines | authors who will allow podficcing | permission to podfic form | list of minor characters

General notes:

  • Maito Gai | Might Guy — Obviously I'm not going to nitpick with anyone about what they use in their fanwork, but like Tenzou's name we'll just stick with Maito Gai for tags because no one needs the pipes.
  • ANBU Bat & ANBU Hawk — Bat and Hawk are Shikako and Sasuke, but Voldecourt made a good argument that they have a different dynamic with each other and other people when they're being ANBU, so I'll allow separate nominations for them as their ANBU persona. The same is not true of other ANBU characters, however. For example, don't nominate Tenzou as ANBU Cat.
  • Best Tag — Definitely WB: Pre-Funeral Parties for S-Rank Missions, but special mention to Mr. Cranberry & Anyone for being adorable and WB: Ninja art of the monologue for being hilarious.

The following tags were approved but changed for clarity or deleted as duplicates after I approved them:

  • Hatake Kakashi & Maito Gai | Might Guy and Hatake Kakashi/Maito Gai | Might Guy were approved as Hatake Kakashi & Maito Gai and Hatake Kakashi/Maito Gai; see above.
  • Yamato | Tenzou & Anyone was approved as Tenzou & Anyone
  • Nara Shikako/Gaara was approved as Gaara/Nara Shikako because that's the canonical AO3 tag.
  • Group: Kakashi's Dog Summons was approved as Group: Kakashi's Ninken
  • Nara Shikako & Yamato | Tenzou was deleted as a duplicate of Tenzou & Nara Shikako

These tags are confusing, duplicates, or potentially too broad:

  • WB: ANBU Created Natural Disasters — Do you really want natural disasters created by any ANBU, or do you want a focus on ones caused by Team Red?
  • Group: Konoha 12 — This is a perfectly fine tag... unless you want to also include Sakura, in which case maybe you'd want Group: Konoha 13? But maybe you don't want to include Sakura! That's fine too.
  • Sai & Anyone — This was changed from Sai & Konoha 12, probably because I didn't approve it right away with all your other tags, but Sai & Konoha 12 is also a perfectly fine tag! I just wanted to check with you about Sakura like the above tag. If I don't hear from you before the next clarification post, I'll approve this, but feel free to change the tag back to Konoha 12/13!
  • Shimura Danzou & Anyone — This was briefly Shimura Danzou & Anyone who wants to stab him in the face which made me laugh and is a big mood but unfortunately was too specific/wacky to approve. Shimura Danzou & Anyone is obviously fine, but I was thinking you might want Shimura Danzou & Any Enemy?
  • WB: Missions Gone Wrong — I think this is more of a prompt for a plot than for worldbuilding. What do you want to know about missions that go wrong?What aspect of missions are you looking for elaboration on? (For example: are you looking for what ninja do out in the field when things get FUBAR, or are you interested in what happens afterwards with, idk, telling Intel their information was crap?)
  • WB: Ninja Bureaucracy and WB: Ninja Logistics — I approved these and I'm happy to have them! However, I think they're very similar. Definitely different enough to stay separate, especially if the same person nominated them both, but
    A) If two different people nominated them, maybe you'd both like them merged? I don't know your life.
    B) Assuming we don't want them merged, maybe we should beef them up a little to make sure you get the worldbuilding you want. Bureaucracy involves a lot of logistics and vice versa, after all. What were you thinking is the difference between these two tags?
  • WB: Research & Development — I accepted this but now I'm thinking that it is very general. Which is fine! But give a shout if you want WB: Nara Research & Development or WB: Konoha Research & Development Department or something; I'll add 'em for you.

These tags are wrong:

  • Still none! — Good job!!
Extra thanks to everyone who's helped me find duplicates and typos already! Mostly those have been brought up on Discord but you can also leave them in the comments here.
