Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Nominations!

[dark_administrator]

If you have nominated one or more fandoms that qualify for our challenge, please list them here! If you would like to brainstorm, urge other people to nominate something you might not have had a slot for, or discuss other aspects of nominations, this is the space to do it.

Do remember that the closer we get to 25th December 2010, the harder it will be for people to learn a new source canon - so this is the best time to try to woo a potential writer over into a TV series or epic 6 volume book canon.

How to Nominate
The nomination form

Nominations close Wednesday, 20th October at 8:59 pm US Eastern time.

Addendum:

With the help of dharmavati, eruthros, and thingswithwings, to whom we owe many thanks, we've been compiling nominated fandoms with chromatic creators and characters from your comments, the Yuletide Nominated Fandoms List, and the Yuletide Characters List in the Chromatic Yuletide 2010 Nominations List spreadsheet (html version).

We've been following titling and tagging conventions from yuletide and AO3 and will need help adding and verifying information, so if you have time and energy to spare, we would appreciate your assistance! The spreadsheet is set so anyone (no Google account needed) can edit, and Google Docs is designed so multiple editors can work on a document simultaneously and all their edits will update. We're currently working through the Yuletide Nominated Fandoms list, and you can check our status under Progress. We have also included a Color Key to explain the highlighted cells.

We're also maintaining a list of Chromatic Yuletide Fandom Promotion Posts here.

Here's what I nominated:

-Batman Beyond: Dana Tan and Max Gibson are CoC voiced by actresses of color, and I'll definitely going to request a story with Max as a perspective character.
-Dark Angel: Max is played by Latina actress Jessica Alba, and her friend Original Cindy is a lesbian of color.
-The Fall: Features several secondary CoC.
-The Giver: It's canon that society has been whitewashed in an attempt toward "sameness". While that means there aren't canon CoC (beyond some brief appearances in memories), I'll be requesting a story with a chromatic approach because the novel makes a very strong case for diversity.
-Friends: Two of Ross's exes, Julie and Charlie, are CoC.

I also meant to say that on my list of possible fandoms to nominate was Undercovers, the spy show in which the two leads are CoC. For US residents, all four aired episodes are currently on Hulu, so now is a great time to give the show a try.

I'm so glad people are requesting Undercovers! There is great potential in that show, and it's adorable enough just getting it's legs that I really hope folk take to it.

[gorgeousnerd]

I really do too! I actually went back and swapped out my sixth nomination for Undercovers because I think it needs to be included.

I will do that!

[gorgeousnerd]

Awesome! I hope you like it!

Oh, how squeetastic! I promise to write you a Dana fic one day! *makes rash promises* ^^

[gorgeousnerd]

I can't say how much I'd love that! :D

[mercredigirl]

This is the only Dana-centric fic I know of, Bat's Girl by dotfic. *resolves to write one by New Year's* ^^

[gorgeousnerd]

Ooh, thanks for the rec! I'll definitely give it a read.

Oooh, The Giver. I can't remember actually *liking* that book, but I was terribly intrigued by it. Addressing it with a chromatic approach would be awesome.
