Tagging Volunteers Needed

[independence1776]

I'm the tagging moderator, and I'm looking for a couple of people to help me. (Last year, there were two of us and we barely managed to keep up; right now, it's just me.) ETA: That was fast! Volunteers found, and thank you very much.

Volunteer duties involve checking every entry for the proper spelling and formatting of tags, as well as adding any that may be applicable. This is a task-- based off last year-- that will take several hours a week, even though your duties involve keeping track of just one or two types of tags. I will be handling format and genre; I need one or two people for character, and another for prompts.

Note that volunteers won’t be able to delete bad tags from the official list, just remove them from entries; deleting is something I have to do.

(On a general note: tagging guidelines for the community will be posted in a couple of days.)

Question, does the tagging have to be checked every single day, or is it okay if there's a few days where it's checked the next? I have a few days during March when I have tests and stuff, but other than those days, I could help with tagging. I'm pretty sure my overall story writing is going to be less than last year's, so I should have a bit more free time.

It's perfectly okay! I doubt anyone's going to have time every day. (I know last year I didn't; I bet it's going to be the same this year.)

Welcome aboard! (If you'd like, I'll email you the tagging guidelines if you PM your address to me.)

Awesome! I'm glad to help then. (I barely managed to get on last year to check prompts every day, and this year I'm taking 18 credit hours instead of the 16 I had last March...and with one exception, they're all 200 or above level classes this time. Life is fun. )

Thanks! (PM sent. :D)

Ooh, I like tagging. :)

[independence1776]

Awesome! I'd hoped you'd come back. Since you are returning, you get first dibs: character or prompt? (And if you'd like, I'll email you the tagging guidelines if you PM your address to me.)

I'd be happy to lend a hand if you need me.

Awesome! I'll let you know shortly what you'll be handling. (If you'd like, I'll email you the tagging guidelines if you PM your address to me.)

Tags are shiny! :) Offering to help if you need another person! :)

[independence1776]

I'll let you know if we do!

Looks like you're got all the volunteers you needed (darn--I was looking for a fairly striaghtforward and not-too-time-eating way to be helpful in March); but if you need a backup tagger in case something comes up, I can do that.

I'll let you know if we do. :)
