How do you apply to get badges? I’m pretty sure I qualify for Fine Arts, PPPP, and Magical Inkwell (unless I misunderstood the criteria), but I don’t know if theres a more formal way to do it than to, like, just ask here.

@Roserado
It helps the mods if you post a link to a search with the criteria for each badge included, but yes. this is the place to ask about it. For the Inkwell badge you have to update your profile to include a link to the site you posted fanfic on and mods have to verify it, but you’re well short of the 200+ needed for Fine Arts, though.

Yeah, I rechecked the requirements, and I didn’t notice the 100+ upvotes for 200 seperate uploads, which in hindsight makes a lot of sense. Don’t know how i didn’t see that.
About the link, thought, when I go to provide an “artist” link to my FF profile, it looks like it requires me to have my own tag, which doesnt really make any sense? I’m not an artist, I’m a writer (technically).

Find an often-overlooked tag and keep an eye out for images that are missing it, the numbers build up pretty quick; I’m fairly sure I’ve added more than 10% of cloven hooves, for example.

@TexasUberAlles
One very often forgotten tag is oc only. You could easily rack up tens of thousands of tag edits with that tag alone.
The various background tags (transparent, white, black, gradient, etc.) are also good candidates. They’re very often misused. Many people manually add simple background but leave out the tags that imply it which is very annoying. Many people also tend to add it when the background is not simple which is even more aggravating (they seem to think it’s some kind of a default tag they have to add, it’s not!). Cleaning up the background tags is very time consuming.
It’s also good to look for older badly tagged images.

Other tags I find to be mostly ignored:
apple bloom’s bow
applejack’s hat
big macintosh’s yoke
unshorn fetlocks
Glowing horn
Telekinesis
Magic aura
species tags
You would be suprised at how many uploads forget to add these!
Both apple bloom’s bow and applejack’s hat can apply to any version of the character, be it: EQG, pony, humanised, anthro, really anything goes! As long as apple bloom or apple jack has there hat or bow on in the image respectfuly, you can tag it.
Worth noteing here is hair bow, as that can apply to any hair bow in any image.
Big macintosh’s yoke is in alot of big macintosh pictures, as is his unshorn fetlocks. Yet they are rarely taged on upload.
Shining Armor also has unshorn fetlocks, as well as most of the G5 cast.
Glowing horn, telekinesis, and magic aura. These three tags can apply any time a unicorn/ alicorn/ changeling/ kirin ever lifts something up magicly.
Glowing horn can even apply to any creature who uses there horn to do anything, as long as it’s glowing you can throw it in.
Last but not least, species tags! Is the image of a unicorn yet it doesnt have unicorn as a tag? Throw it in! As long as there is one Unicorn in the image, you can toss that on the pile. Remember to also add in Pony if thats not on there too. Any pony race in a pic yet it doesnt have the tag Pony? Throw it on.
You can also ‘mine’ tags from old upload to newest upload.
For example: Apple bloom, Solo
Search those tags, and any time you see her with her bow on, put it on the image tags!

I feel like a lot of those tags are somewhat meaningless for the purpose of simply searching for images by tags. Just searching Apple Bloom, Applejack, or Big Macintosh would realistically be the same as searching for their accessories to bring up said character. It seems to be more of a case of adding tags solely for the sake of tag edit points as opposed to actual usability of said tags.
It’s almost akin to e621’s tagging of everything down to eye colors, fur colors, clothing colors, etc. just to fluff up the tag lists.

I’d dissagree. If someone needs a refrence for eqg applejack with her hat on, it would be much easyer for them to find it via tags.
Theres also the times when images of big mac or applejack dont have those accessories, so haveing the accessories in the tags when they do exist is imporant, as is not haveing them when they don’t exist.
Where Apple bloom’s bow is on another characters head.
It’s objectivly her bow but you couldnt find that accessory by just looking at Apple bloom images.

A grossly undertagged one is earth pony.
A note though to anyone tagging: pony does NOT intersect with semi-anthro or anthro. These three are uniquely separate from each other with tagging, and should not be tagged on the same image unless the multiple body forms(?) exist separately in the image.

It would be easy enough to find simply by searching eqg, applejack, screencap in that case. Unless they want other artists’ work with her and her hat in it as well. The tag accessory swap is also viable if you want characters wearing someone else’s accessories. There’s also the general tags of hair bow or hat that can be used to further refine your search. Specific tags for a single accessory just seems silly to me. The point is that there are tags in place already to help you find what you want without having to add extra tags for overly specific things. But for general use in tagging, you won’t have people ever needing to use those tags in their searches when other common tags exist to bring up the same results.
