So today on a whim, I decided to try and find photos of the old 1083 on CD-Media. I knew George Wallace had uploaded more, so I went to search and found a tremendous amount of pictures that weren't tagged with anything beyond a year. I tried to tag as many as I could, but this is one of those things that takes a lot of manpower...and hey, the off-season is coming, right?
The search led me to two ideas:
1) Is there any way to enable a URL-based listing of photos by user as there is for tags? For example, I can go directly to
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/tags/frc1618 without any search. I'd imagine a by-user URL would look like
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/users/billfred instead.
2) Can the list of special searches (the ones for untagged photos, etc.) be expanded to include listings of photos likely to be under-tagged? For example, most photos I've seen qualify for at least a couple of tags (a photo of our robot this year would be tagged frc1618, robot, and 2007), while the import only gave most of these under-tagged photos one tag or less (usually just a year). By the same token, perhaps a listing of photos tagged "regional" or "off-season competition" with four or fewer tags would work there? And, obviously, a WAI should have at least two tags.
