Topic: Experienced tag editor seeks access to tag script feature

Posted under General

Story time: I was looking for some art set inside of a train. So I tried the train tag, but it features all kinds of posts including miniature trains, trains from the outside, and even posts without a train. Currently there's no tag for in_train. Wouldn't it be great if there was?

Hi! ^_^ I am a tag editor with some experience (14000+ edits on Sankaku Complex) and would love access to tag scripts. With tag scripting, I feel like I can contribute to e621's already awesome tags in a fast way. I am aware that e621 and Sankaku have tagging differences and I am more than willing to work within e621 standards. Feel free to audit the edits I've done here already, or check out my Sankaku profile for examples of my work.

Thanks for considering!

You could probably use inside for some of them if the focus of the picture is inside the train. There's an inside_car tag but no tag (to my knowledge) for generally being inside a vehicle except in_vehicle which only has 8 posts. inside_vehicle sounds better than in_vehicle to match up with inside_car and I guess would make a good tagging project.

You can "fast" edit without tag scripts by using edit mode on the index. Or just open a shitload of tabs from a search and edit each one.

As Blind Guardian suggests, I find edit mode to be an acceptably fast substitute for tag scripts. To those of you who can script: do enjoy it and don't take the tech for granted. =) Of course, I'd accept an upgrade to privileged status, but I won't press for one at this time.

Thanks for hearing my request!

Just hang out and tags lots-- it gets you noticed. :)

Thanks for helping out! <3
