For example, if a game has drama elements, rather than voting + on the "Drama" tag, try to look for a more specific child tag that describes what kind of drama a + player can expect.</li> + <li>A rating between -3 and 3 can be given to a tag. A negative rating indicates that you disagree + with a tag, with -1 being "I wouldn't say this tag really applies" and -3 meaning you fully disagree + and the tag really doesn't apply at all. A positive rating works the opposite way, and indicates + that you do agree with it.</li> + <li>Some tags can act as spoilers for the plot of a VN, this can be indicated by voting on the spoiler + status.

While the meaning of a tag can be obvious if you look + at its place within the tag tree, when displayed on a VN page only their name is visible and + not the parent tags. The name should thus fully describe what the tag means and should be used + for. For example: a tag to describe a male protagonist should be fully named "Male protagonist", + even if its parent tag is "Characters > Protagonist".</li> + <li>Tags should be used to describe objective information about a VN. Subjective tags like + "Awesome protagonist", which would have a different meaning for each individual, are not allowed.</li> +</ul> + diff --git a/data/docs/index b/data/docs/index index e121ebfb..79d751af 100644 --- a/data/docs/index +++ b/data/docs/index @@ -5,6 +5,7 @@ <li><a href="/d2">Visual Novels</a></li> <li><a href="/d3">Releases</a></li> <li><a href="/d4">Producers</a></li> + <li><a href="/d10">Tags</a></li> <li><b>About VNDB</b></li> <li><a href="/d9">Discussion board</a></li> <li><a href="/d6">FAQ</a></li> |
