Those are three categories of fandom that can swamp your search results on AO3 when looking for a particular tag. Or at least two of them are. I don’t run into much Bollywood stuff, but I guess it would vary by what you’re looking into.

I’d love to be able to exclude all bands and all cartoons (and all video games), but K-pop and anime definitely make up the bulk of it.

AYRT.

It's the inclusion of Bollywood that's throwing me. I run into a lot of anime and K-pop when trawling random tags, and if the OP had just mentioned them as specific examples of non-English megafandoms I'd understand their frustration... but I'm pretty sure I've never stumbled across Bollywood at all, much less excessively enough for it to be a problem.

DA
I run into anime and oddly enough Harry Potter still swamps the results often enough. And One Direction. Must be the tags I'm looking under.

nayrt and yeah, I'm so baffled by that one. I don't think I've EVER seen a Bollywood tag in the wild.
