REVENGE OF THE ART Project
Goal: Go through the art-related tags (as seen in tag group:art ) and ensure that all of the images are tagged properly.
- painting, picture_frame -- use painting for images of paintings, picture frames for the frames they sometimes sit in.
- images that have been painted should be tagged watercolor_(style) or painting_(style) or digital_painting or similar.
- Images of people drawing, or painting should be labled creating_art.
- "Professional" art (a subjective term, but works as such: frank_frazetta or post #66153 ) would be captured under proper_art.
- Images that are clearly inspired by classical art, but have furries or animals installed instead are inspired_by_proper_art.
- ancient_furry_art is for old 'classical' furry art.

Keep an eye on...
These are completed projects that will need a little maintenance now and then. :)
Tag me!
- Try for at least 10 tags per image. If you can't make it, leave tagme on the picture and try again later :)
Completed on July 13. 2011 by a number of AWESOME users!! GOOD JOB GUYS!

Tips n' Tricks for Faster Tagging
So! You've decided to take on a sizable tagging project! CONGRATS! :D You're now 20% awesomer!
Now, to tagging! The first thing you may notice is that you're opening a LOT of pictures and probably often typing the same thing, over and over again, if you're doing one specific task or another. Perhaps you've taken to copying and pasting, when you can.
"But, surely there's a better way to do this!" you exclaim, overwhelmed. And you'd be correct!
EVERYONE has access to a sweet and simple little tool that will make your tagging flow much more smoothly. Let's check it out.
If you click on My Account at the top of the screen, you'll notice a number of options pop up for you to examine. right now, we're interested in Settings.
Here in the settings screen, we have a number of options... At the top is the ever popular blacklist...
Blacklist
The blacklist can actually be a pretty awesome tool when you're trying to tag certain things. For example: I'm busy going through 'handjob' and removing the masturbation tag from all of the image where someone is giving someone else a handjob. Clearly, I won't need to do *anything* to any 'solo' images, so I could search handjob masturbation -solo or, I could add 'solo' to my blacklist while I'm working on my project, and be much kinder to the server. :)
There are many ways that utility can be used besides hiding your squicks from your eyes. :) But, moving along... 4 'boxes' down, You'll see a box reading 'uploaded tags'...
Uploaded Tags
Uploaded tags are displayed below an image when you go to edit the tags or upload an image. It's list of tags that you can click on, and it will be applied to the text box for you to save a few minutes later.
You make a list of tags in the box--I separate them by new lines, but spaces WILL work, though it'll display the same both ways later--.. chose tags that you are frequently adding, or frequently removing from an image. if an image contains a tag, you can click on the tag in your list to remove it, then again to re-add it.
Upgraded accounts
If you've generally been awesome, and have earned an upgraded account, you have access to these fun things called tag scripts which you can read about here: http://e621.net/help/tag_scripts

if we find a Comic or webcomic with "Art" is it ok to just remove the art tag? I am assuming so although I may be making an ass of myself and another.
/*Edit*/ Would we replace a musician playing music to creating_art?
asked b/c i removed the art tag from
/*Edit2*/ Art tag cleared. there wasn't many pics left with it posted. Probably just a bit of recent tagging cleanup.

yep.
/*Edit*/ Would we replace a musician playing music to creating_art?
I'd say no, generally, maybe creating_music instead. dunno if ther'es a better tag.

I still see about 40 pictures in there o.o
For something like that, inspired_by_proper_art seems appropriate.

No, it's not.. eh.. here, let me explain inspired by proper art again:

or in a few cases, having a strong effort to render the image of the same style of an artist.
And that is exactly why I said it seems appropriate. it seems that a huge effort went into making it appear to be done in the Classical art style. I couldn't name ONE of the artists it was based upon, true, but as a non-connesseur(sp) it looks like any one of them could have painted it.

A classical art STYLE, yes, but it's not a mimiced image, or a mimiced style of someone distinct.
It IS a fine piece of work, however, putting it into the other tag would make the tag's purpose more vague.
a "classical art style" would be better served as a tag, or as a pool, perhaps :D

Tag created. I'll go through stuff at my leisure some other time and add the tag.

Sounds awesome :D
Go through *censor* and consolidate them under the proper tags.
I'd like to help with the "art" tags, if no-one else is doing that.

Oh! I didn't see this... go for it :) 'Art' is emptied out thanks to swamproot :) But I do need someone to look through the related art-tags as described. Mostly, this is gonna be painting and picture frame that need tidying up. If you see anything that doens't have a tag already, make it up, just be sure to add them to tag group:art :)
Go through the Oni tag and clean up which are oni (demons) and which are done by Oni (artist). Tag the ones that are oni (demons) with demon instead, then artist Oni.
Turns out this was a good idea after all... and to think, snowkitty, a few days ago you were all "If I don't fix it, who will?" :P
you are all wonderful people
Rating:Questionable
Goal: Check rating:q images for explicit content.
This is a huge project. but it's easy to pick up and put down at a moment's notice.
Essentially, the default rating on e621 is questionable, and a user who forgets to adjust the rating when uploading might upload safe or explicit content as questionable. The goal of this task is to go through the questionable images, and rag them E or S if needed
Added this~~
Also, added some words about faster ways to perform some of the more specialized tagging projects! :D

also, THIS THIS THIS! :D
More good tags people ALWAYS seem to forget: solo, nude, straight (but they never seem to forget gay).
Whenever I brave the tagmes, I really do try to add as many tags as I can think of. Some images are hard (post #71727). Others are ridiculously easy (post #78252).
So many peopel helping eliminate those tagmes... swamprootwolf, 0904255, ikdind, skiltaire, blazenarm... and so many others <3 you guys are AWESOME
And swamproot did so much for project:ART :D
as Skiltaire said, there are NO MORE TAGME'S, we completed on of the projects, lets celebrate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxAKFlpdcfc&feature=related
YAY GOOD JOB EVERYONE!
I'm so proud of all of you!!!! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

That is quite kickass. Keep on top of it, more will of course come in from time to time.
in the mean til, there are sme other tagging projects that need some love too :D
and off the top of my head:
- adding comic pages to pools
- ratings checking
- making and linking wikipages together (sometimes new pages need writing. sometimes existing pages just need links installed)
- TAG GROUPS -- find something, and start making a list of tags that relate to it. colors, clothing, species, positions... I'm busy writing one for arm positions. :P

Tagging Projects, (or, How YOU Can Help!)
In category: Tags and Wiki
So with all of the aliases and implications brought up lately, there's a lot of work that needs to be done... So, if you've found yourself recently saying "I want to help, but how...?" this is an ongoing list of things that need to be done, that YOU can help with. :)
Please read carefully, make sure you understand the task. ASK if you have any questions (a PM or a reply here will do), and please reply, or message me to let me know you've started working on something, that way people are not stepping on eachother's toes.
Don't feel like taking on a large project? It's okay to pick something and spend a few minutes retagging some of the images. Every little bit helps. :)
I'm goign to try and keep this post updated with the status of each project, so please keep me up to date on your progress... also, there's no shame in saying "I don't have time anymore" or "This set of tags isn't my cup of tea and I'm not enjoying this at all".. :) So, please, keep me informed.
Likewise, If you HAVE a project that you'd like some help with, feel free to PM me with the details, and we'll get it posted here :D
Projects are in no particular order, and there are many others on the way :)
The Cryptid Project
Goal: Tidy the unknown_species tag.
IMPORTANT -- Don't just delete it ._. That does no one any good.
THE TRUTH: post #135619 -- there are a lot of things liek this that are so obviously not AYTHING found in nature. These are unknown species. Just leave them alone, and move on to the next thumbnail. This is not a tag that can be emptied, nor should it be.
Rating:Questionable/safe
Goal: Check rating:q images for explicit content.
This is a huge project. but it's easy to pick up and put down at a moment's notice.
Essentially, the default rating on e621 is questionable, and a user who forgets to adjust the rating when uploading might upload safe or explicit content as questionable. The goal of this task is to go through the questionable images, and rag them E or S if needed. Easiest way to do this it to search rating:q pussy or rating:s Penis :)
Magic Users -- See Also: Tag Group:Magic
Goal: Tidy up the magic_user Tag, and apply related tags to images
There are a number of different magic user types. Go through the magic_user tag, tag as appropriate. Some images may have multiple words applied to it, based off of physical appearance, and tag implications.
Magic Users, part two: magic and holy_spellcaster
Goal: Walk through the magic tag, look for characters who's visuals match up with the 'stereotype' images for any of the more specific types of magic user, and tag appropriately. Also, fill out Holy_spellcaster by going through Priest, cleric and paladin, to the criteria above, and add related tags.
Masturbation
This is a simple one for picking up and putting down at any given point in time. Very simple and black-and-white with it's requirements.
Goal: Tidy up fingering, handjob
A poorly chosen set of implications had handjob and fingering both implying masturbation. However, masturbation is something you do to yourself.
This task is most easily accomplished by searching handjob masturbation -solo or fingering masturbation -solo and going through the results.
Mutual mastubation
Goal: Ensure that everything in the mutual_masturbation tag is both mutual, and masturbation.
This is going to involve a LOT of retaging D: only images like these: post #116885 post #123084 post #79812 should be here.
