January's #OTW newsletter spotlights 2025 #AO3 statistics, including a pie chart of Policy & Abuse tickets, a round-up of #OpenDoors imports, and #TagWrangling sorting nearly 5 million tags in 2025. Check out the latest news post for details: otw-news.org/2utt96m2

New #AO3 tags canonized on the same day: "Bad Person Akemi Homura" and "Akemi Homura Did Nothing Wrong"

Tagwrangling just reinvented Sears Subject Headings with fandom terminology. There is nothing new under the sun.

In the 15 years of AO3, we've already had to go back and rewrangle some tags to keep up with terminology shifts. Plus newbies misusing language, fandoms bringing a new interpretation...

After me being gone from #Squidgeworld for 75+ days, I wonder if I should come back or not? Wihtout investing myself too much in with #tagwrangling or other responsabilities AND without causing trouble again for the others OTW-archives-I-won't-name. #pastevent

I've got a lot of tags to wrangle today at Squidgeworld. Many are from external works for Schitt's Creek.

Am I the only one that posts about #tagwrangler & #tagwrangling???

I still split my days between gaming on Mortal Kombat, tag wrangling on Squidgeworld & cross-posting my things to miaqcarchive.ca
Right now I'm in "commissioned drawings from artists" for 4 Alice: Autistic Magical Girls.

I feel like I cannot take a 1 day break from tag wrangling otherwise more & more pile up.

Quite frankly, the AO3 is doing the job most InfoSci professionals are still arguing about: <a href="http://bit.ly/IcdDQB" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link="bsky">http://bit.ly/IcdDQB #tagwrangling
