Author Tags, Still
So, back in February (where does the time go!? no, wait, I know: grad school) we began porting all the author tags over to Delicious: long story short, there are many, many POC authors reviewed on this comm, far more than the LJ tag system can accommodate. (I consider this a good problem to have, frankly.) Ultimately, this is only the first phase of a two-phase project: first, move author/illustrator/editor/translator tags off of LJ; second, neaten/re-organize/rethink the race/ethnicity/country tags and cross-reference them in both places (while simultaneously locking down creation of new tags to mods, so that there's some hope of them staying neatened/reorganized). In that second phase we will also likely look at the genre/subject tags again.
Anyway, re Phase I, Move Author Tags to Delicious: many volunteers stepped up, and between them, cross-referenced some 885 posts onto Delicious. Yay! Many thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
anitabuchan, coraa, idella, kyuuketsukirui, ruke, rushthatspeaks, sumofparts, sweet_adelheid, and zeborahnz!
However, Phase I is not yet complete: as sometimes happens, not everyone was able to complete the posts they initially signed up to do, so there are still some 200+ posts that need to be cross-referenced onto Delicious.
Which means that I'm asking for volunteers again. (There may be a day in which I post about tags and do not ask for volunteers, but that day is not today.)
If you're willing to put in some time updating the delicious account, and thereby helping us finish Phase I on this project, please drop a comment here with a way for me to reach you via email, and I'll send you directions. If you don't want to leave an email address in the comments, drop it to me by private message. I'm not asking for a minimum commitment at this point: I basically just need this finished, and am asking people to sign up for whatever they're comfortable doing.
Anyone out there willing to help finish up moving the author tags to Delicious?
