In need of champion tag wranglers

[snickfic]

rebcake made the excellent suggestion that we set up a tagging system for this comm. Reb volunteered to help go back and tag old entries, and I can as well, but as of this post there are 1,668 entries in the comm (woohoo!) and so we could maybe use a couple more volunteers. *g* I'd also like someone to partner with me in tagging entries for future sessions.

Anyone game to do either or both? Or, further suggestions for tags? I can't guarantee we'll use them, but a little brainstorming would be a great help.

ETA: Taggers found! Thanks much to angearia, gillo, and abelina. However, suggestions for the tags themselves are still welcome.

At the moment I'm thinking the following tags:

+ tags for all seasons of BtVS, Ats S5, and post-series
+ author tags
+ form categories (fic: one-shot, fic: multi-chapter, poetry, art: icons, art: banner/wallpaper/manip, art: vid - what other art categories would be useful? What might people want to search specifically for?)
+ fic genre categories (post-apocalyptic, time travel, amnesia, episode-specific, vamped character, parenting - others? These are ideas I got from buffyversetop5. However, for the tag wranglers' sanity, we want categories that are not too subjective (like "angst") and can be easily identified from the fic header.)

Maybe via the author/creator tags? Will have to think on this.

Maybe something like --

for non-verse specific fics author: spuffyFreak2942
for fics set in a pre-existing verse author: spuffyFreak2942 balloon verse

I think creator tags will do a lot of the heavy lifting for this sort of thing. Plus, a lot of the wider 'verses are continued outside this comm, so going to the creator's journal will probably be necessary anyway.

I agree. I think if someone wants to hunt down the rest of the 'verse, they can just go to the author's home journal.

I suppose it's likely those authors with 'verses will have some sort of notation or links to that effect in their entries anyway.
