NOMINATION QUERIES 2: Avengers, Madoka Magica, Plants vs Zombies, Scum Villain

[thenostalgicmod]

Please comment on this post if you can help clarify any of these queries. Thank you!

The Avengers (Marvel Movies)

As per the Fandom-Specific Disambiguations guidelines, it appears that "The Avengers (Marvel Movies)" should not be nominated as a separate fandom. Rather, these characters or relationships should be nominated to "Marvel Cinematic Universe".

For the following, could someone please confirm that this is true? Else, I'll accept them under "Marvel Cinematic Universe" and disambiguate with "(MCU)".


• Steve Rogers/Tony Stark
  
• Peter Parker/Tony Stark
  
• Tony Stark/Stephen Strange

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magika | Puella Magi Madoka Magica

For the following, could someone please confirm that Ai-chan is a character with no other aliases? Else, I'll assume this refers to the character from Episode 9 and change to "A.I.-chan/Futaba Sana" before accepting.


• Ai-chan/Futaba Sana

Plants vs Zombies

From what I tried reading about the game, it appears that Mushrooms are a sub-category of Plants. In that case, I won't accept the tag because it doesn't seem mutually exclusive.

For the following, could someone please clarify how Plants and Shrooms are different characters, or if this could be changed to something more specific? Else, I won't accept.


• Plants & Shrooms

人渣反派自救系统 - 墨香铜臭 | The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System - Mòxiāng Tóngxiù

Could someone please confirm that "Original Shěn Qīngqiū" and "Shěn Qīngqiū" are to be treated as separate characters? Additionally, where does the piping "Shěn Yuán | Shěn Qīngqiū" come into play?

For the following, could someone please confirm that neither piping nor "Original Shěn Qīngqiū" should be used? Else, I'll assume all three versions of the character (plain, original, piping) are different, and accept as is.


• Shàng Qīnghuá & Shěn Qīngqiū
  
• Shàng Qīnghuá/Shěn Qīngqiū
  
• Shěn Qīngqiū & System

Nomination Clarification & Query 3: Original Work

[thenostalgicmod]

A quick clarification regarding nominations, especially under "Original Work: Solo Nonhuman Character | 1+ Nonhuman Characters in Ships".

Originally, I had imagined that the category X would probably be used for characters or creatures that the nominator headcanons as something along the lines of objects, things, or "it" rather than "he"/"she"/"them", etc.

If there is a monster, creature, non-human entity, or animated object that you have a gender and/or sex headcanon about when nominating, please try to use that in place of X.

For example, if you headcanon a particular djinn as female, you may use F to indicate that instead of X. Similarly, if you have a headcanon that djinns, as a "species", have gender and/or sex but you do not care what it is for your ship, you may use A to indicate that.

I bring this up because I came across several nominations that had a category built into them but used X. I accepted a few before noticing, and then changed the X to the category indicated in the nomination.

For example, I've changed "(X & X) Ghost Girl & Ghost Kitten (OWNH)" to "(F & A) Ghost Girl & Ghost Kitten (OWNH)".
For example, I've changed "(X) Solo: Female Virtual Assistant (OWNH)" to "(F) Solo: Female Virtual Assistant (OWNH)".

Below are some ships that confused me because there seems to be a category built into the nomination. There are also other nominations which contain non-human creatures that are often associated with some sort of gender and/or sex but were categorized as X. But I do not want to change any these myself because that wouldn't feel right.

• (X/M) Selkie/Man Who Steals Her Sealskin (OWNH)
  
• (X/M) Reverse Anglerfish Mermaid/Man Who Was Hoping For the Other Kind of Mermaid (OWNH)

If you've nominated these (or something similar that hasn't been approved yet), please either change the X to indicate the category you headcanoned, or let me know that you'd prefer to keep X either by commenting (Anonymous is fine!) or sending an email to implodinglittlehearts@gmail.com. Until these are changed or the nominator confirms that they'd prefer to use X, I won't accept them.
