-- 1,300 fandoms (actual number is less due to duplicates)
-- 4,199 unique characters nominated after accounting for duplicates
-- 79 fandoms with no characters nominatedPlease note that this means that

It's always good to have an excuse to look through all the fandoms...

Thank you so much for the spreadsheet, you even got my last-minute noms on it.

I'm glad to hear that there are many more nominations though. I get nervous every year that I won't find enough canons I'm sure that I can write for. (Meaning not only that I know them, but would have time and ability to review them, and they're not so awesome I wouldn't dare write fic for them, etc.)

Glad it was useful!

It seems like a lot of the coordinating nominations seems to lean towards more media-based fandoms and new stuff - not that books aren't in there as well, but more of the actual coordination involved TV/movie stuff.

Probably due to number of characters. Books, even a series, tend to have much fewer important characters to deal with. A protagonist, a love interest, a friend, an antagonist ... there's your four slots all decided!
But tv shows have massive casts, especially ensemble pieces. For example, a sentai show has five-six main characters on the team as a rule, that's not even counting love interests, supporting characters, mentors, and major villains. So some coordination is necessary for that. Same goes for musicals, ensemble-based movies, and the like.
