Mod Update
Please request a new fandom tag in the stickypost if you're the first to post to a new fandom.
I have had some some people posting to the comm for a new fandom without making a request for a new fandom tag (and a few have made it clear they saw there was no tag and that they just sort of threw up their hands). The Posting Guide makes it clear that requesting a fandom tag if you're the first to post to that fandom is required. The reason I'm doing it that way is that I want people to request it so that if I'm unfamiliar with the canon, I can talk to the person to make a tag name that will best cover the different things within that canon.
So far I've contacted the people who've done it and added the new tags since the comm is new but in the future, I will just be leaving the posts untagged and unindexed in the memories (effectively making them impossible to find by anyone looking). I won't be deleting them in case people just forgot and ask for a tag later (in which case I'll follow up go index the characters in the memories) but I will make them impossible to find if a tag isn't requested.
This new process will be added in the rules.
