I'm assuming we won't have to do another evidence post for Frederician RPF, since it was allowed last year, but we might have to do one for Enlightenment?
Also, we might have to be careful with Voltaire, lest the mods decide to make the two fandoms one because he's in both, which would limit the number of characters for us. Since I think he's very likely to show up in Enlightenment fic anyway, if someone writes it, whether he's nominated or not, I therefore propose switching him out with Hervey, i.e. I'll nominate Émilie, Hervey, Pompadour and Denis.
Your guys: Algarotti already has a tag on A03, so shouldn't be a problem. Lady Mary is Lady Mary Wortley-Montagu (not Montague!), Maupertuis is Pierre Louis Moreau de Maupertuis, and the correct Richelieu is Armand de Vignerot du Plessis, Duc de Richelieu. Here you need to be careful as Richelieu the Cardinal is Armand du Plessis, who has his own tag, and Enlightenment Richelieu does not have his own tag. So maybe after the name add the life dates (1696 – 1788) to make it crystal clear this is a new character and not the Cardinal.
