Tag Overview

This article is an overview on how articles in the Yonderverse are organised, using tags. I use tag-lists to create indexes based on certain themes, such as my List of Articles by Planet.

You'll notice I sometimes tag images, historical events, and other taggable features. I have spent a long time making the search pages look nice and navigable!

Universal Tags

These tags are ones that appear on every article.

Alphabetical Order
idx-letter

Every article gets a tag based on the first letter of the title.
Examples: idx-t idx-a idx-g
A to Z of Articles
Article Templates
template name

Every article is tagged based on the template it uses. I give another tag for custom templates.
Examples: species character
Date
year
month-year

Every article has a tag for the year it was created, and another tag for the month + year it was created.
Examples: 2023 apr2024
Articles Written by YearArticles of 2024

Specific Tags

Location Based Tags
Location articles often get specific tags for location type.

Species Classification Tags
Species articles get tags based on their taxonomic classification.
Examples: cnidaria mammal dragon family taxonomy
Planet Tags
The content of most articles take place on a single planet, and they get a tag to represent that.

Species Index
With so many species, I have to keep track with various indexes.

I love that you have a tag for articles you wrote in class, that's incredible. Also, very appropriate that (at time of writing) the Stubs header has nothing under it :D

hehe, thank you! I completely forgot to finish the stub section! D:

I was good at using tags when I started on WA, but fell out of practice bc I had no idea how they worked or what kind of system I should use for tags. It helps to see how other people use them. Developing my tagging system is something I'm interested in tackling this summer.   Also, I particularly like the "writteninclass" tag.

It's unfortunate, tags are a little bit of a mystery as to how they work and how they can be optimised for your world. I hope I'm able to inspire you, and hope you have fun developing your own tag system! <3

I love this. I'll definitely be borrowing some ideas.

So many worlds to choose from...
