Query Post #1

Thanks for your nominations so far! Nominations close at 11:59pm CST, Sunday 29 January.

We have notes on a few nominations, as follows:


Abrahamic Religions - this has been nominated with Chava | Eve | Hawwa' and Lilit | Lilith. As this exchange is for nominations of specific, public-domain texts rather than entire bodies of religion and lore, we would like you to narrow this down, please. Please nominate a specific story in which these characters both appear. In a previous year, we approved Lilith and Adam together under the story of The Alphabet of Ben Sira.

كتاب ألف ليلة وليلة< | Kitaab 'alf layla wa-layla | One Thousand and One Nights - this has the characters Scheherazade and Dinarzade from the framing story, and Ali Baba and Morgiana from one of the stories Scheherazade tells. Please choose one set, or split these out into separate nominations. Stories need to be separate.

Nußknacker und Mausekönig | Nutcracker and the Mouse King - E. T. A. Hoffmann - as well as Marie, who we've approved, this was submitted with the Snow Queen and the Sugarplum Fairy. Neither of these characters appear in the text. Please only nominate characters who appear in this version.

Shurale - Ğabdulla Tuqay - We can't find a version of this publicly available. Please supply one so we can approve this.

The Stolen Child - William Butler Yeats - we will not approve original characters. Please nominate specific characters who appear in the text.


EDIT:

Sleeping Beauty (Fairy Tale) is unfortunately too broad. Please choose a specific version such as Perrault's The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood, the Brothers Grimm's Little Brier-Rose, or another variation.

More nominations welcome! It also helps us if you can find sources for your nominations, or confirm with us that a previous year's source is the correct one.
