Category talk:Multimedia Conventions

From Fanlore
Jump to navigation Jump to search

I think this category name is dangerously ambiguous, and its scope is also too broad. Most large conventions are multifandom in the sense of including fans of multiple franchises, canons, IPs, etc. All science fiction, fantasy, horror, comics, and anime conventions are "multifandom" conventions in the sense that they are focused on a genre and not on an individual work. Media Fandom is a historical term that does not cover all "media", but was originally used to distinguish from literary science fiction and then started to include non-science fiction tv shows that fans got into later. Since this category is under Media Fandom, is the intended scope "multifandom media fan conventions"?--aethel (talk) 23:48, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
