Fandom Nominations

[grundyscribbling]

We had two new to us fandoms nominated.

We are thrilled to discover them, but unfortunately, we cannot include them in this round of IS. We do not add new fandoms midway or more through the nominations period. We will be happy to add Eärendilova Plavba (Eärendil's Voyage musical) and Horn of Gondor (fan film) to the next round of IS, and hope that whoever nominated them will be willing to write up promo posts so we can get the word out about these fandoms prior to nominations.

This also goes for other fandoms not currently in IS - we do not object to adding fandoms, but we prefer to add them before nominations open. And we will not add new fandoms more than 5 days into nominations - it's not only unfair to anyone who gets their nominations in early, it means people who are not already familiar with the fandom won't have adequate time to look into it before sign-ups. (Remember nominations are only how we form the tagset - people still need to offer/request things!)
