If a user could scroll down a list of their post titles and select the ones they want to add a tag to, this would save a lot of time and energy. To give an example of a situation that would benefit from this, let us say an individual has a few hundred posts, half personal discussion-posts and half fandom-related (fanfic, fanart, etc). Only when a few friends mention that they only want to navigate to the personal posts or only to the fandom posts does the journal owner create specific tags to indicate the difference. Going back and adding the proper tag one-by-one could take hours and hours. Having a way to add a tag to multiple posts would alleviate any stress involved in the task and help users keep their journals tidy and well-organized, if they so desire.
