Here are current recommended (but optional) tags for c/anime:
[]or[]for general discussion/question posts[]Watch This! posts with a recommendation/review[]a video clip post[]for news and updates[]for discussions with spoilery content - indicate the series that is being spoiledHere are the ones for c/manga:
[],[]- chapter discussion threads[]- Official art from a series or author, OC fan-art is also allowed[]- news updates about series, authors, publishers, etc.[]- Read This! posts are posts in which you recommend a series to others. Please provide a short review and information about the series as well.IMO these guidelines could use some updates.
Here are my suggestions:
anime manga rationale [][]Makes it clear the thread is about a newly-released episode / chapter [][]Keep as is; small snippet regarding the anime / manga [][]For any posts asking for a recommendation, or posts that recommend an anime or manga; replaces WT! and RT!; see below for fine-grained alternatives [][]For any posts that start a general discussion in the community (e.g. your favorite anime / manga); alternatively: [][][]Keep as is [][]For posts regarding the community itself; for posts like this If the proposed
[]has to be more fine-grained:
anime manga rationale [][]Same as before; for posts recommending others to watch this anime / read this manga [][]For reviews of an anime / manga [][]For posts specifically asking for recommendations The
[]tag was excluded because if you think about it, every post is a discussion thread.This proposal applied to c/anime and c/manga because there is likely a significant overlap between these two communities; would be nice to keep them aligned.
The final set of tags doesn’t have to follow this proposal exactly; thought this could make a good starting point.
What are your thoughts?
Agree with all but RT! And WT! I really like it because they are short.
There was a suggestion in the anime thread about shortening it to just [Rec] which I liked. RT/WT isn’t really clear unless you read the sidebar (hard to do on some apps) or are already familiar with what they mean from the subreddits.
OH OK
