List of Official Tags/Keyword Collections
-
by ChimpMods
Tag groups are a way to automatically collect videos with a particular hashtag in one convenient place. (Learn more about them here.) They're especially useful to find example videos of species we've identified, but the science team also uses them to ask research questions. If you'd like to tag a video, below you can find the list of "official" tags that we use -- if you use something else, even just substituting a hyphen for an underscore, the video won't make it into the collection! The tag groups may also contain videos with the wrong species or behavior since they're only as accurate as we all are with our tags, and some species or behaviors can be particularly tricky to identify. This is why we ask that you not guess when you tag videos, but feel free to tag #need_ID and someone will try to help. Hashtagging is always optional and we thank you for your participation!
Some further tips for when it's useful to tag a video:
- it's a chimp
- it's a species that doesn't have its own category in classification (e.g. monkeys and primates, all the species that fall into other (non-primate), birds, etc.) and you can ID the correct species
- it has multiple species or other interesting features (see list below)
- the video is an especially good/clear example of a species, or if the species is rare
- you can't ID the animal (use #need_ID in a comment by itself that can be deleted after identification)
- you've identified the animal, but the ID was especially hard
If you add a tag, it's also useful to the science team for you to hashtag the site name (eg: #DawnBird, see full list below). You can also add your own hashtags if you find an interesting behaviour that you want to collect or that you think the science team might find useful and that isn't already on the list! And if you aren't sure feel free to post to the suggestions to the keyword list thread.
