| 1 | 1 | ##Purpose |
|---|
| 2 | 2 | |
|---|
| 3 | 3 | Tags are primarily designed to allow users to mark and find sentences that belong to a certain category. The most important use of tags is to indicate sentences that need special attention: **@change**, **@check**, **@delete**, etc. |
|---|
| 4 | 4 | |
|---|
| 5 | 5 | If you want to simply mark the source of a sentence, it is best to use a comment, especially if (1) the name of the source is very long or (2) you don't expect to be adding a large number of sentences from that source. |
|---|
| 6 | 6 | |
|---|
| 7 | 7 | Tags can only be added by advanced contributors, corpus maintainers, and admins. If you are a regular contributor and wish to add a tag, you should request it from someone who can do it for you. |
|---|
| 8 | 8 | |
|---|
| 9 | | Tag names are to be written in English. For an explanation of this policy, along with further notes, see [Trang's tag guidelines from 2010](http://blog.tatoeba.org/2010/11/tags-guidelines.html). |

| 12 | 12 | |
|---|
| 13 | 13 | ###OK |
|---|
| 14 | 14 | The tag **OK** indicates that the sentence is considered correct by the person who tagged it. You should only tag sentences "OK" in your own native language. |
|---|
| 15 | 15 | |
|---|
| 16 | 16 | ###Utility tags |
|---|
| 17 | 17 | Tags whose names begin with "@" indicate sentences that require attention. They are listed below. The following are representative: |
|---|
| 18 | 18 | |
|---|
| 19 | 19 | - **@change** - The sentence needs to be changed. |
|---|
| 20 | 20 | - **@check** - The sentence needs to be checked. |
|---|
| 21 | 21 | - **@needs native check** - The sentence needs to be checked by a native speaker. |
|---|
| 22 | 22 | |
|---|
| 23 | 23 | ##How to help |
|---|
| 24 | 24 | |
|---|
| 25 | 25 | You must be an advanced contributor in order to tag sentences. However, even if you are not a trusted user, you can still leave a comment that contains the same text as a tag (for example, "@check"). An advanced contributor may later choose to add a tag based on your comment. |
|---|
| 26 | 26 | |
|---|
| 27 | 27 | Whenever you notice a possible mistake that can be evaluated by either a native or non-native speaker, add the **@check** tag and post a comment explaining what you think the mistake may be. |
|---|
| 28 | 28 | |
|---|
| 29 | 29 | Whenever you add sentences in a foreign language or encounter sentences written by a non-native speaker, are not completely sure they are correct, and want a native speaker to validate them, add the **@needs native check** tag. |
|---|
| 30 | 30 | |
|---|
| 31 | 31 | Whenever you notice a sentence that you are certain is unnatural or wrong, add the **@change** tag and post a comment to suggest a correction or better phrasing. |
|---|
| 32 | 32 | |
|---|
| 33 | 33 | Whenever you can, browse through sentences that are tagged **@change**, **@check**, **@needs native check** to discuss the sentences with other members and help decide what to do with these sentences. |
|---|
| 34 | 34 | |
|---|
| 35 | 35 | Once the case of a problematic sentence has been solved, tag it **OK**. More generally, you can browse and check others' sentences, and tag them with **OK** to indicate you consider they are correct. But do this when you are 100% sure that the sentence is correct. |
|---|
| 36 | 36 | |
|---|
| 37 | 37 | Note that Tatoeba will not allow you to use the OK tag on your own sentence, whether you have written it or adopted it. |
|---|
| 38 | 38 | |
|---|
| 39 | 39 | You must be a corpus maintainer or admin in order to delete tags. However, even if you are not, you can add an **OK** tag to a sentence that contains a **@check**, **@change**, or **@needs native check** tag, and a corpus maintainer or admin can later delete the other tag. The **OK** tag will generally be left in place to indicate that a native speaker has checked the sentence. |
