It turns out that some of the stuff I was worried about seems to have been nominated after all and just not spreadsheeted, since I got an error when I tried to (wrong-fandom) nominate it! For all I know I may have wasted a nomination slot anyway since I did nominate a fandom with no characters that maybe someone else already did, but I didn't know how to check that one.
