I have it set so only moderators can make tags to make sure everything stays neat/repeat tags aren't made/etc.

So, before I make the tags:

1. Just to check--your author tag should be "Belphegor," right?

2. Do you think I should make fandom: Life of Mars/Ashes to Ashes or two separate fandom tags. I'm happy to do it either way, but I'm not familiar enough with the shows (I watched some LoM in America, but that was different) to know if they're considered really one thing or not.

Anyway, great to see you de-lurk, and I look forward to reading your story in just a minute. :-)

Good idea about the tags - I'm an aspiring librarian, so I'm all about keeping things neat and avoiding duplications :o)

1. My understanding was that author tags were based on the author's LJ name, but I'm perfectly fine with Belphegor, having used the handle for a bit over ten years now :o)

2. Since Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes are intricately linked and happen in the same 'verse, I think there should be one tag (especially since, for the moment, there aren't that many). We can always specify in the message body if it applies more to one than the other.

Thanks :o)

And it's tagged!

I ask about the user names because occasionally someone wants a completely different autbor tag from their username. I don't think it's happened on this comm yet, but I've seen it on other comms. :-)
