I think we should definitely not tag every chapter of HPMOR. So to be consistent we should probably untag the later chapters of 3 Worlds and make that the norm. I guess that should be added to the description.
Roger that! Later chapters of Three Worlds Collide, and The Bayesian Conspiracy have just been untagged.
I also updated the tag description to reflect the norm (in bold and near the top so it appears on the tag hover text, if I understand correctly the meta-norm about such disclaimers).
Edit: the tag is still there for 3WC c1, I didn’t have enough power to remove it.
This raises the question of what serial fiction posts should be tagged as, because some of the posts you untagged are now at the top of the untagged posts page.
Maybe we could have “serial fiction” as a containment tag much like “Newsletters”.
Or are we going for a norm where some posts do not merit any tag at all, and the untagged posts page is doomed to become a list of them?
Yeah, that’s a good point. I think the correct thing is to build a way to remove them from the untagged page (perhaps a special kind of tag for the purpose) rather than trying to come up with a spurious tag.
The thing about HPMOR is it’s a sequence that’s easy to see from the Sequence buttons on the page. A tag doesn’t add much, and tagging ~100+ posts won’t really help it.
For now, I think it’s best to ignore and trust the team will save the untagged posts page from the non-taggables!
Raemon surfaces some other reasoning (paraphrased):
Contention: all fictions posts should be tagged Fiction
We don’t want to see every chapter of HPMOR on the Fiction tag, but it is useful to have every chapter of HPMOR have a link to the Fiction tag.
On the Fiction tag we can solve having a gazillion posts with relevance ordering. The first chapter in things should get upvoted and later chapters can languish at the bottom of the list and that’ll be fine.
That makes sense to me? What do people think?
Thanks and sincere sorry to Gyrodiot who didn’t skip a beat in executing the previous norm.
Should all HPMOR posts be tagged with the Fiction tag? Only the very first chapter is, currently, which makes sense. Conversely, all chapters of Three Worlds Collide are tagged with it. Which convention shall prevail?
(sidenote: I’m volunteering to mass-tag HPMOR if it’s greenlighted)

Thanks for the very generous offer though!

Tagging everything makes sense to me as well, and, yes, the first installments should be relevance-boosted.
I perceive the consensus to have shifted in favor of the mass-tagging, which will begin soon. I’ll report back.
Edit: all of HPMOR, 3WC, TBC have been tagged, and the tag description has been reupdated. Please boost the first chapters, and standalone pieces!
Woop!
