Entry tags:

The suggestions post

Soon (for certain values of 'soon'), there will be a "suggestions generator", where you fill out forms and it will post an entry to this community for you, for discussion and the like.

Until then, if you've got something you'd like to suggest for Dreamwidth, you can leave it as a comment here! You can review our development roadmap explanation first, since it includes a lot of our upcoming big projects.


The Suggestions Generator is now live! Please fill out that form instead.

I actually love what Archive of Our Own has made for the add-tags box (and characters, and pairings, and fandoms). There's not a drop-down menu, but when you start writing, the list of all tags somewhat alpha-related appears, and changes as you keep writing. For example, if in pairings you want to add Wilson/House, this happens:

+ when you have the first three letters (or more, or less -- this is just an example), all pairings with any form of wil will appear;
+ let say you already typed Wilson. the list contains all pairings with a character named wilson, including Greg House/James Wilson (yes, with the bolding)

You can add new entries to the list, but if what you're looking for is already there, then the chance of miss-writing something is much lower.

I love it, too, but there's apparently usability issues with it. I'm not sure they're going to keep it.
