Star Wars Rare Pairs - Ao3 Exchanges 101

We've put this FAQ together for people who haven't done an exchange on Ao3 before, (or who have, but still have some questions they might be embarrassed to ask!). We'll talk about exchanges, nominations, sign-ups, and assignments. Huge thanks to The Dreaming of Sunshine Exchange FAQ, which did such a good job with their FAQ that I stole most of it!

Nominations are open!

• Every person may nominate up to 20 ships in up to 10 fandoms.
• Ships must have fewer than 250 works that are over 1000 words in English on AO3.

Nomination Guidelines

To nominate:
• Read the Nomination Guidelines (this post!) and make sure you understand them — don't be afraid to ask me or any of the other co-mods questions if you don't!
• Go to the tagset and make sure you're logged in to your AO3 account.
• Click the nominate button and fill in the nomination page with tags you want to request.
• Only nominate in the fandoms listed below. We are not using Star Wars - All Media Types as a fandom. You can copy and paste from the fandoms list here.
• When the mods have time, we approve them... assuming you filled it out correctly and we understand your nomination.
• If you did it wrong or I'm confused, I'll ask you about it in a nominations clarification post on this Dreamwidth community. You just have to comment on the post or email me to clear things up!
• We can't see who's nominated what so we can't just ask you directly, you have to pay attention!
• Lingering incorrect nominations may be rejected, but I will always be willing to add the correct versions in for you if you provide correctly formatted tags later on.
