Thanks everyone for your nominations and clarifications so far! We’re still working through final approvals and replying to responses on previous query posts.

Nominations have closed, but mods will manually update/add tags based on query post replies made before March 12 at 7pm EDT (UTC-4). Signups will then open March 12 at 9pm EDT. In the meantime, we’ll be working on approving final nominations, checking the tagset, and making sure the Original Characters and Any or No Characters tags are available for each fandom. We’ll also be removing any fandoms without worldbuilding tags. If you spot any errors or tags that have wandered out of their intended fandom, have rejected tags that you think shouldn’t have been, or have pending tags that haven’t been queried, please let us know! 

For the following fandoms: we have questions about one or more tags. If you’re the nominator, please include a link to your nominations page in your response.

Pirates of the Caribbean (Movies) - For WB: Elizabeth's Similarities to Calypso (Pirates of the Caribbean), this seems more like a character study or meta-analysis prompt than worldbuilding; could you clarify?

Pluto (Manga) - For WB: Atom grieving post-canon (Pluto), this seems more like a character study or plot prompt than worldbuilding; could you clarify?

Spider-Man: Spider-Verse (Sony Animated Movies) - For WB: What Are The Different Canon Events of Spider-Man's Life, could you clarify what you’re looking for here?

Spider-Punk (2022 Marvel Comics) - For WB: How do Earth-138's Deaf Daredevil Power work? Is she mutant or is there a version of the HAND in the Spider-Punk Universe?, we’d like to simplify this to WB: How do Earth-138's Deaf Daredevil Power work?; does this work for you? For WB: Norman Osborne as President of Earth-138 and how it affected Kingpin and Daredevil's relationship, we’d like to simplify this to WB: Effects of Norman Osborne’s Presidency; does that work for you?

The Old Guard (Movies 2020 2025) - For Any Immortal Character (The Old Guard), we are not accepting “Any” descriptor character nominations. Would you like to specify specific immortal characters or a worldbuilding aspect relating to immortals? 

The Trials Series - Quinn Audio - For WB: Theo and Jane's first meeting in college (TT), this seems more like a relationship or plot prompt than worldbuilding; could you clarify?

Hallo itt Mátyás király! - Bogáti Péter - For WB: Modern archaeologists discovering Károly's copper cylinder, this seems like a specific plot prompt and we're having trouble finding canon context; would something along the lines of WB: Archaeology or WB: Archaeology of the Canon Time Period fit what you're looking for?

NoPixel (Web Series) - For WB: The Nerds Prior to Los Santos, WB: Yeager Demonblood's Childhood, and WB: Yuno Sykk's Childhood, these seem more like character study prompts than worldbuilding; could you clarify?

When the Angels Left the Old Country - Sacha Lamb - For WB: Religious Experiences as a Metaphor for Queerness, is this something that is understood/discussed as a metaphor in universe? If so, we’ll approve it, if not, this seems like meta-analysis outside the scope of this exchange.

ここは今から倫理です。| Koko wa Ima Kara Rinri Desu | From Now On We Begin Ethics (Manga) - For WB: Takayanagi's Childhood, WB: Takayanagi's Home Life, and WB: Tokigawa's Home Life, these seem more like character study prompts than worldbuilding; could you clarify?

仙王的日常生活 | The Daily Life of the Immortal King (Cartoon) - For WB: Froggy's Daily Life, this seems more like a character study prompt than worldbuilding; could you clarify?

Spider-Man: Spider-Verse (Sony Animated Movies) - For WB: What Are The Different Canon Events of Spider-Man's Life, could you clarify what you’re looking for here?

In Spider-Man: Spider-Verse, there are events that are considered "canon" and must happen in every Spider-Man's universe, or the universe will start falling apart (or so the "authority" [Miguel O'Hara] says). There are some that are specifically named in the movies themselves (ex. Uncle Ben [or equivalent figure] dying) as well as the implied criteria of these events having to be formative/significant to the Spider-Man of the universe (teaching them important lessons and whatnot).

So by "WB: What Are The Different Canon Events of Spider-Man's Life", I'm interested in what events are integral enough to Spider-Man's life that the disruption of them might tear apart the universe.

If that seems more like a plot prompt/character study, other ways I thought of phrasing it to be more centered around worldbuilding were:

• WB: Functions of Canon Events or WB: Significance of Canon Events
• WB: Properties of Canon Events
• WB: Miguel O'Hara's Canon Event Theory

I put a worldbuilding tag under the wrong fandom by accident, could you please move it for me?

"WB: Origins of the Ultramarines' ability to achieve the impossible (Warhammer 40.000)"

should be "WB: Origins of the Ultramarines' ability to achieve the impossible (If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device)" instead.
