it's a little confusing still, to me - it's not clear if by entering a blank form I clear all tags, or only my own

"To clear your tags"
2007-10-04 27706, 2007
ruaok
what would you suggest I do to make that more clear?
2007-10-04 27708, 2007

but I get it - and it looks, then, like there would be no way for me to remove "mipe" is it were something offensive, say, "memberofNAMBLA"

that's correct. :)
2007-10-04 27756, 2007
brianfreud
well, let's say I personally had tagged it "food" and "love". If I wanted to add a third tag, would I need to enter "food love great" in the blank to avoid clearing the old two tags when adding "great", or would I just have to enter "great" to add it?
2007-10-04 27713, 2007
brianfreud
or is it only a completely empty form that removes tags?
2007-10-04 27722, 2007
ruaok
doesn't the fact that your old tags get loaded give you enough of a clue?
2007-10-04 27728, 2007

(comma separated tags I hope)
2007-10-04 27759, 2007

ah, ok, I see what you mean
2007-10-04 27723, 2007

just kind of, for me, non-intuitive

"alpha numeric characters"?
2007-10-04 27752, 2007

just say any character except commas
2007-10-04 27707, 2007

or except commas, periods and...

Anyone who gets "word characters" has done /far/ too much perl. :p
2007-10-04 27713, 2007

only thing I don't like about "alpha numeric" is it implies that 青木麻由子 wouldn't be valid, and it is

2007-10-04 27741, 2007

I guess the question more is, what characters are *not* valid?
though artist mbids don't seem to actually be found...
