Efficient ways to upload/tag posts?

Posted under General

New lurker here. I've been discovering features in the site and uploading some posts for a while.
One thing that bothers me often is uploading posts needs pre-tagging. For me a non-native English speaker, it often costs me about 10~30 minutes to fully tag a post by reading all the tag wikis and translating some words you will only see in hentai contexts, and then upload. I feel that this is not efficient at all.
Any recommendations on this? Or is this really a *practice makes perfect* thing?

Learn how implications work, saves you a lot of time. Blue hair implies hair, small breasts implies breasts etc. Theres also implications that are layered so you can get 3 or even 4 tags from typing one out.

You can also enable AI tags then look at the recommended tag wiki to see if it fits the image before clicking. Can help you find terms for stuff you are not aware of.

What are these AI tags? I already know DeepDanbooru. Are you mentioning that or something else?

see about:custom css style, find the "Show the ai-tags column" style and apply it.

two disclaimers for the sake of being a responsible builder:

  • it's a decent productivity booster if you already know the definitions of most common tags, but do verify the results it gives, as it'll sometimes hallucinate tags that don't apply.
  • relying on it alone is not ideal if you're going for more than level 1 of the howto:tag checklist, a lot of more niche tags aren't even included in the model.

Got it, thanks!
