Post tags are optional, but are recommended since some frontends can use them to categorize posts. Some recommended post tags:

[Discussion], [DISC] - chapter discussion threads
[Art] - Official art from a series or author, OC fan-art is also allowed
[News] - news updates about series, authors, publishers, etc.
[RT!] - Read This! posts are posts in which you recommend a series to others. Please provide a short review and information about the series as well.

Another week in the books. Let's chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.

Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).

Alright, I updated the sidebar a bit to reflect the new meta. Specifically,

I changed up the tags a bit to match what I use on [email protected]. Specifically, the previous tags were [ART] and [NEWS] and now they are [Art] and [News].
I decided to leave the [RT!] tag since it is abbreviating multiple words, so the capitalization makes sense.
I decided to deprecate and remove the [SL] tag since I don't think it has ever been used once in this community and was simply carried over from reddit.

Unrelated to tags, I also refreshed the related communities list.

Thanks for the work.

I propose replacing [RT!] with another tag. Right now, it's being used by to recommend people to read a manga. IMO it can be more general-purposed, and be used to tag posts in which people are asking for recommendations as well.

Also, "Read This!" doesn't make as much sense for anime, if we want a consistent tag for both communities.

The most straightforward replacement is [Recommendation], but it's long and a pain in the ass to type. Gotta check a thesaurus.
