Fallout (Video Games)

• Connor/Porter Gage — According to the fan wiki there are at least 2-3 Connors that this could possibly be. Possibly which Connor this is should be obvious to people who would request/offer it, but a disambiguation would be appreciated.

Warcraft - All Media Types

• We've asked people not to nominate as All Media Types without speaking to us first. Please either switch your nomination to a more specific fandom or comment below clarifying why you need the AMT fandom tag.

Marvel (Comics) vs Marvel (616)

• Steve Rogers/Tony Stark (616) — This was nominated in the "Marvel (Comics)" fandom and I approved it that way, but then I had some hesitation. The Marvel (Comics) fandom tag includes a whole bunch of non-616 Marvel comics. For example, Ultimates.

  
  Nominator, did you specifically want Steve Rogers from 616 and Tony Stark from 616? If so, this tag in its current form and association probably isn't right, because I think it could be misunderstood to be any Marvel comics Steve, you know?
  
  Our preference would be for us to move your tag to Marvel 616, unless you do want any comics version of Steve Rogers, in which case we would leave your tag as-is. Please let us know what you prefer?

• Gamora/Nebula (Marvel) — We're pretty sure that this tag got hit by tag drift, as it's showing up in both MCU and Marvel (Comics). We've disambiguated so that we have these tags:
  • Gamora/Nebula (Marvel (Comics))
  • Gamora/Nebula (Marvel Cinematic Universe)
  However, like the above, if the nominator wanted a specific version of Gamora/Nebula in the comics, they should please tell us so that we can make that clearer in the tag.

• Going forward, please be as specific as you can when nominating Marvel Comics characters. If your nominations include just characters from the 616 continuity and you specifically want the 616 versions of those characters, please nominate under Marvel (616).
• If you nominate a tag for Marvel (Comics) where the disambiguation is not clear to us, as with Steve/Tony (616) above, we will attempt to clarify. If we do not receive a response we will accept the tag as-is under the nominated fandom.

FYI the tag "Orson Krennic/Thrawn | Mitth'raw'nuruodo" is appearing in both Star Wars: Thrawn Series - Timothy Zahn (2017) and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016). It definitely doesn't belong under Rogue One, as Thrawn isn't in that movie. I haven't read the new Thrawn series yet, so I don't know if Krennic appears in that or if the tag should be in Crossover Fandom, but either way there's definitely some wandering going on.

Oh, thank you! We would 100% never have caught that if you hadn't said anything. It looks like these two characters meeting is the premise of an upcoming Thrawn book that will release during sign ups. I'll sort out the tag drifting and add a note about it to the second clarification post to let the nominator know.

I'm the one who requested Porter Gage/Connor! In the game it's stated that Porter started his life as a raider under a raider overboss named Connor, who later backstabbed him and tried to have him killed. So according to the Wiki, it's the Connor (Nuka-World) one.

Thanks for clarifying! It sounds like it should be pretty obvious, but I'll approve it as "Connor (Nuka-World)/Porter Gage" just to make sure you get the Connor you want.
