The Discworld one. Okay, Sybil's only tagged in 289 works. And??? That's not evidence, that's anecdata! It has fuck all to do with the fandom_s eligibility as a whole!

It's almost like they tried to crib from Astolat's attempt to nominate the Transformers cartoon without noticing how spectacularly it failed.

I thought the mods have been letting in specific Discworld books for years, provided they're nominated as specific books. This is just so low-effort.

They have been, but I don't think any of the books Sibyl has been in would be eligible for that. She's in the main Watch/Ankh-Morpork books and if any part of Discworld is ineligible, it's that.

Yeah. If anything, you'd need to use Vimes as a measure for that particular series. I don't get why they chose Sybil in particular.

And you might even be able to slide it in under 1000, though it's be time-consuming to assemble the numbers. But "this specific character doesn't appear that much" simply isn't an argument for the fandom.
