Should I change the tags to English?

[dorchadas]

Like the question says, really. I originally had the tags only in Japanese, and then I added the English translations later so that it'd be useful for most of my blog's readers, who don't speak Japanese (or don't speak it well). But are they still useful? It makes it harder for other people to find the tags, they aren't in alphabetical order or

No real opinion, so maybe? I admit to only using English, but seeing Japanese is kinda cool.

Instead of tags that begin in Japanese and then have English in parentheses, I suggest using two tags per word, one for each language. That way you benefit speakers of either language equally, and the English tags will be alphabetically ordered correctly.

That would solve the ordering problem, but it would also double my tag workload. :p

Also, seldom-used tags will disappear from the tag cloud if you have a lot of tags. At least that happened to me.

What about just renaming them so the English comes first? That would solve the alphabetizing issue, right?

I might just do that. It'll save space on my posting software, too--currently it needs a lot of scrolling to do anything.
