Hello from the new mod.

Jul 14, 2018 16:36

I am thrilled to be stepping in as moderator for the hardtime100 community. This was the first place I was able to try my hand writing Oz fic, so being able to help out here is like a dream come true.

Thank you to trillingstar and ozsaur for letting me have this opportunity. I hope I do you all proud. A million thanks go out to ozsaur for keeping the community going and all of us ( Read more... )

Hooray! I'm so glad that you're here.

I am happy to try to fix the tags with you! Maybe we could gather up a few volunteers and divvy up the work. Or... yeah, brainstorm something else. That whole thing still really grates my cheese.

Happy to be here!

I was thinking that changing the tags on the challenge prompts might be the way to start and then looping in the individual responses. I don't know how detailed we want to be with the tags because tagging for characters or particular authors might also be a fun side project, but then we'll have 600 or so tags- does LJ limit the number of tags for a community?

Holy shit you brought back the tags!!!! WOW! HIGH FUCKING FIVE! XD ( ... )

It's been kind of a Zen exercise for me to update them. I discovered the magical place where tags can actually be edited so that's a good thing (I'm only in 2005 as far as tagging the drabbles goes, but I really didn't want to have to redo the numbering system). Tagging authors would probably be the next step - some communities have a very simple "author: name" tag, so I might try that next. You are more than welcome to help with the tags if you want. We could do it by year or you could start from 2018 & work backward as I work forward. I also need to drop a note on Discord that there are new prompts.

My 3c. I think the 'author' should be something else; I've been using w for writer (though that is not set in stone). Reason -- to keep the challenges at the top of the sidebar, as the focus. I started with the flashfiction because there is less of that ( ... )

Maybe "post by" for creator, since a few of these are art posts and then subject for the character/pairing, maybe best to do the main pairings - b/k, o'reily/alvarez, mcmanus/murphy, and then we take a poll as to which individual characters folks want to see tagged and the top five or so will win (I don't necessarily think tagging for a walk-through/background character is necessary)

We could also make subject prompts for gen, slash, f/f, and het as well.
