Tagging Question

[potentiality_26]

I'm having trouble tagging a work on AO3 and I thought I'd take a survey of the room to see if anyone has strong opinions on the subject.

Put under a cut for The Hobbit spoilers.
Does an LOTR fic that references canon character deaths from The Hobbit require a Major Character Death tag?  Said references aren't the focus of the story, and obviously I'm putting a 'Canonical Character Deaths' tag on it, but I can still make a case for either choice.


What do you guys think?

I generally stick with 'Canon' unless you have someone who is dying and it is NOT canon. Major character death usually holds for that.

That makes sense. Thanks!
