The following fandoms require more information; please respond in the comments:
- Lynes and Mathey Series - Amy Griswold & Melissa Scott: Julian Lynes/Ned Mathey (Lynes and Mathey Series) -- I can't find any confirmation that this is a romance novel series; it looks like a mystery series to me. Can the nominator please provide evidence?
- 镇魂 | Guardian - priest: Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan (Guardian novel) -- I'm unable to find any information about this canon specifically; can the nominator confirm whether this fits the criteria
- Pitch Perfect (Movies): (all nominations) -- this canon does not fit the criteria of a romantic comedy; the romance is a small subplot rather than a focus of the movie.
The criteria for the exchange is the following:
- Movies: Romantic comedies; lighthearted comedic films with a focus on a romantic relationship with a happily ever after or happy-for-now ending. Examples: You've Got Mail, Isn't It Romantic?, But I'm A Cheerleader!
- Novels: Romance novels. These can fall into several subcategories (paranormal, young adult, historical, contemporary, etc.) but generally follow the same beats and have a close focus on a romantic relationship; as with romantic comedies, these end with a happily ever after or a happy-for-now. Examples: Julia Quinn novels, Red White & Royal Blue, Bride by Ali Hazelwood
- Other media: accepted on a case by case basis, but must have a happily ever after or happy-for-now for a primary couple (in the case of visual novels and video games, all endings should fit this criteria)
