tags, tagging
In Movable Type, tags are separated by commas. You can therefore—and should—use multiple words separated by spaces: peanut butter, not peanutbutter
Use the plural form: hot dogs, not hot dog; books, not book
Capitalize proper nouns: California, Jeffrey Steingarten, Taillevent — not california, jeffrey steingarten, or taillevent
Use the simplest form of the tag: cookbooks — not fish cookbooks
Don’t overtag. As of publication of this post, there are more than 4,300 tags in the Serious Eats MT system. To optimize the system, I need your help in keeping tags lean and logical.
