Edited Entry Tagging Record and Guidelines

1. Get me to allocate you a month of entries if I haven't already.

2. Use the Front Page archive (http://www.h2g2.com/U230056) but ignore any repeats (marked in the archive with a ®).

3. Work through them at whatever pace you want:

- If the entry is in a "United Kingdon/England/......" category, put the entry's title in the search box (top left corner) to check it hasn't been done yet.
- Add the title in the "Title:" box and the http://www.h2g2.com/A.... version of the link in the "Link:" box.
- Leave the body of the post blank - add the tags under "Labels for this post:"
- Use the entry's category/ies as tags, but don't include "Life" "The Universe" "Everything" or "The Earth" - they're too widespread to be useful.
- Also add any tags that describe the entry itself - this is the important bit, so take a minute or two to think.
- Don't use commas in tags (they're used to separate tags) and replace ampersands with plus signs (ampersands cannot be used in tags) - "Bands, Orchestras & Ensembles" in the category system thus becomes the tag "Bands Orchestras + Ensembles"

4. If you finish the month you're working on, let me know and I can give you another to work on if you want.
