[admin] Misc housekeeping

[kaberett]

Hello everyone! I am kind of overwhelmed by how much people seem to want this place, so: thank you, all of you, and welcome, and I hope this space becomes what we want it to!

I've got some questions about how you'd like me to run it. Specifically:

Tags. I've just introduced a bunch of tags based on signalboost type (petition/fundraising?), who it's for/will benefit (individual/group/project/charity), whether it's region-specific (e.g. No10 petitions are UK-only, and whitehouse.gov petitions are US-only), plus a "radio free monday" tag. Can you think of anything else you'd like me to include? I've currently only got two region-specific tags, and I'm sure I need more, for example.

Radio Free Mondays. Would you like me/us to keep linking to them? I'm very happy for other people to drop the link here when it goes up, rather than it being ~my job~ -- is that something y'all would find useful?

Any other questions?

I think more region-specific tags can probably be introduced as needed.

I also think linking RFM here on a weekly basis is a very good idea - it gives more visibility for copperbadge and the campaigns they are advertising, and it's very much relevant to this comm's interests.

One thing I think would be good is a tag along the lines of "needs tags" or "tags requested", since posters can't create new tags. That way if someone posts and they need a region: France tag or whatever, there's a canonical way to request it, and it's easy for admins to find posts that need tags. (Probably non-critical unless we get quite active, but may be useful to have in place for scaling purposes.)

Awesome suggestions, done. xx
