Mod Post: tags in the community and what is going on with them

Hi guys,

I've noticed that a lot of people have started tagging their posts, or have started asking people to tag their posts so that it'll be easier for everybody to search for answers. I want to thank you guys so much for this. However, I've temporarily suspended tagging by community members for right now, as I'm trying to organise the tags we have and phase out some old ones.

It's been a little trial as I've tried to re-tag some entries, only to find that new ones have been tagged with a tag I'm trying to phase out! ;) Once I've got all the tags in order, I'll be opening up tagging to everybody in the community. Unfortunately for right now, I'm going to have to restrict it.

I've been trying to tag some new entries as I go. If you think I've missed your entry, please leave a note at the bottom of it for what tag you'd like to have on it. If you guys want a tag that is not currently available, also leave that note at the bottom of your entries.

As a reminder, it is also June, so all content must be posted in the community. Remember that if your post only contains a link to a site outside the community, it will be deleted!

Thanks gang! I appreciate your patience as we try to get some order in place.
