So.

1. The new layout: yay or nay? I just thought it was time to change the look of the comm. a bit.

2. TAGGING. With the help and guidance of the Lord the Supreme Being, I have finally tagged everything that's been posted...well, in the past two years, more or less. My eyes hurt, and I never want to have to type 'queries, robespierre' ever again. But the point is...it should now be somewhat easier to find what you're looking for/see if anyone has already asked a certain question/etc. I'm also up for suggestions if anyone thinks there's a better way to tag things; I've already gotten rid of weird double tags (camille desmoulins vs. desmoulins, for example. I went with the former, because more posts had already been tagged that way), misspelled tags, and added more for individual people. But yes, if anyone has a suggestion about how tagging could be made better, just let me know.

3. Related to the above, please tag your posts from now on (if you haven't already been doing so). No need to worry about whether or not you're tagging them with the absolute right set of words; if I see anything that I think needs to be added or taken away, I'll just quietly move in and fix it. :)

4. Should we bring back monthly discussion points? If so, what kind of topics would you like to see?

I approve of the format of the new layout (though the color sort of hurts my eyes, though it's not really that bad).

And yes, I'd be interested! I wasn't around when the first ones were, so I'm all for it, though I don't know what sort of things would be asked. ^^ I also wouldn't mind if we occasionally had fic/art/vid/essay/plain old historical geekery challenge prompts, as well as [though certainly not instead of] serious historical discussion prompts.

May I say though that I'm thoroughly impressed with the tagging? That must have taken forever.

I've changed it again. Do you like this one? The color is a bit easier on the eyes.

Thanks for the input! I think I'm definitely bringing back the discussion points, and the challenge prompts sound like a really good idea as well. Perhaps they could tie in with the monthly discussion point? Hmmm...

Thank you! It did take a while, but not as long as it could have, thankfully; I did the same thing in late 2007, so at least everything before that was already tagged. XD; I am never falling behind on them again.
