Death Proof (2007), Grindhouse (2007) - I nominated one of these, and yes, it is OK to combine them.

Thank you for the quick reply!

Dark Matter - Episode 2.08: Stuff to Steal, People to Kill - the crew of Raza end up in an alternate (mirror) universe where the Raza crew are more mercenary. So the answer is YES, Mirror Marcus Boone is a valid character, separate from Marcus Boone.

Thank you for the info! :)

I didn't nominate Broken Earth, but I personally would combine them all, even though it makes the character name a spoiler.

[jenn_calaelen]

Thank you for info. We know it would be a spoiler, but sadly there are cases where having a good and clear tagset means there have to be spoilers!

It was my nom, an I meant to keep them all combined, yes.

I didn't nominate Nessun though (and don't have the book to double check), so I can't speak for that one!

[jenn_calaelen]

Thanks for commenting! There were several noms for the character, so we'll consider all replies from nommers in trying to sort it out.

China Court - Rumer Godden, character Mrs Quin - could the nominator clarify which Mrs Quin is intended?

Nominator. Although there are technically many Mrs Quins in China Court, the Mrs Quin known as a child as Ripsie is the only one referred in the text as Mrs Quin. The other Mrs Quins are always identified as either first name only or nickname only. If you'd like to differentiate for this character, 'Ripsie' (no surname) would be fine, or 'Old Mrs Quin', but please not Mrs Ripsie Quin. China Court plays with timelines, and differentiates this character by naming her either Ripsie or Mrs Quin, but never both together.

Hope this helps.

Not familiar with this fandom, but perhaps "Ripsie | Mrs Quin" would work, to indicate that this character goes by both names?

[tryfanstone]

Perfect - that works. Thank you! (Best of luck this year!)

Thanks, to you too! :)

The Broken Earth Trilogy - N. K. Jemisin
character “Damaya | Essun | Syenite” - please confirm if you want all variants, or just Essun, or Damaya and Essun separately?
-i nominated Damaya separately, not sure if someone else nominated the others, I was aiming for Damaya separately, if that's allowed, but realise it might need to be combined, & that's fine
character “Nassun” - did you mean Nessun?
-nope, "Nassun" is the correct spelling
