Re: Fandoms of interest

[(Anonymous)]

it's one of those things where the guidelines have changed over the years, so the actual state of the archive is a mess.

It used to be you'd canonize the short version and then make a subtag for all the different fandoms' long versions, and you'll still see a lot of those around for tags from older fandoms.

They relatively recently switched to "you can syn the short version to the long version as long as most of the uses are for the same character" because they thought the metatag trees were messy but they are allergic to leaving character tags unwrangled. This was frankly a terrible decision that makes it really hard to navigate a lot of small fandoms and also means busy new fandoms often don't even notice their major character was synned to another fandom years ago until the other fandom's tag is mostly the wrong fandom, but wrangling has been heavily emphasizing large old fandoms getting to gobble everything up lately (see also: the Sherlock debacle earlier this year.)
