For the Moment Being...
Hey everyone, just akina-otani again. If you've noticed, I have changed the layout for the time being right now, so that the tags list is present. It will be the temporary layout for a time, until we can make a decision on a new one, or if it is fine, stay to it. Thanks to everyone who gave their opinion at the poll; it will be a great help and if you haven't voted, check the other !!mod post tags and it will be there.
Tags.
We must start tagging from the moment you put in your post, if not it will not help at all in the long run. I have enough time to check the front page for tags most days, though if we get swamped, it will be difficult. Over time, not to be lecturing, it needs to become second nature to tag, keeping with the tags already put in. There are !- tags for requests, gifts, etc etc, keep to the format in place, as I will try to reformat them later on, when it slows a bit.
Make sure to, in gifting and/or requesting, state the album and the language in the tags. It makes it easier to trace, because sometimes if requested, the album will be in the comments as a gift. :D We need to be able to find them later on.
Other than that, do not tag performers. Unless you are directly meaning an artist's solo album, do not do so. It will start to clutter tags and have too many.
At the suggestion of dear petrajaga, this has been proposed and pretty much agreed to by all who commented.
a) ! for general stuff (!gift, !request, etc.)
b) # or something for languages (#german, #dutch, etc.)
c) No "special character" for musicals. (elisabeth, rebecca, etc.)
y/y?
--Another vote--
I want to ask you all of this:
1. Keep the tags the way they are, just the album or the language just as so, like "dutch", "elisabeth", etc.
2. Use a marker before each of the tags, like "language:dutch", "musical:elisabeth"
Just in a comment say which one you would rather want and possibly why. ;) I want to keep ya'll happy as well as keep things working well.
