Tagging Guidelines
Tagging is the second most important job on PawBooru, and is as important as posting.
By tagging images properly, users are able to search for images featuring a specific character, theme or action.
Accounts at "User" level can be invited to become Builder when their prominent tagging efforts are noticed.
Tag what you see, not what you know.
In other words, only that what is visual in the image, for instance, if a character
has red hair and orange eyes use red_hair and orange_eyes as a tag.
Do not use subjective tags like "cute" and "sexy" , Images of a subjective theme can be put in a pool instead.
Minimum Tagging requirements
Characters: All characters must be identified if possible and tagged with character:name (example Azzi)
