How strict of a tagger are you?
 

So if you can read the title, how strict are you with tagging? I'm a huge tag freak. It HAS to be correct or else I spaz XD Artist tags have to be correct for me. And song titles after that. So how strict are you?

I am OCD.

If I dont have the right tag, I'm not okay.

Mostly because back in the day, I would always get Ayu songs that werent tagged properly, and when I finally found out, like, I was mad.

Last FM totally made me OCD about it~ I hate when people tag songs in English, so I have to copy and paste the Japanese/Chinese back on

I'm OCD on that too :laugh.

I HAVE to have them all correct, exactly the way they are. Although...I have to put the Kanji titles in Romaji sometimes because I can't read them. I hate that.

I'm pretty strict tagger. Usually for my Ipod, things that I have bought of the artist has their kanji name and things that are downloaded I use their romaji name. I also have to rip everything that I have bought and put in my i-pod even if it's already on there downloaded. I just like everything neat and organized!! :laugh

This is my life :laugh

If it's someone like Leah Dizon or OLIVIA, who only have one or two songs in kanji, then yes, I want them to be in kanji. However, if it's an artists whose songs are all in kanji, I prefer to tag them with romaji, otherwise I don't know what song it is... I mean, I can recognize the music, but if it appears in my recently listened tracks, I wonder, what song is that??

To me, that's a perfect excuse. I left the chinese symbols on alan's chinese album, and now I don't know which song is which when I want to listen anything from it :(

^ Lol I have the same problem with Korean songs...

I would just play every song on an album till I get the one I want...XD

i never tag anything, hell, over half the music on my computer has no information on it whatsoever besides the song title.

i tag according to the official tracklist. capalizations, kanji, you name it. i'm a strict tagger, if i say so myself. :laugh

for example,
ARTIST | SONG | ALBUM/SINGLE
LANDS | 二十歳の戦争 | Olympos

i use kanji/hiragana/katakana even if i don't know the meaning of it. LOL. BUT! it does help with learning them. you get a sense of all the common kanji like 愛/恋/君/僕 (all kanji i haven't properly learned in class yet!) take my example, 二十歳の戦争 = Hatachi no Sensou = 20 Year Old War :D

I'm strict in my own way, I guess.

I romanize everything, keep stylized formatting and special characters, and leave Engrish phrases alone (Are You Wake Up?), but I'll usually correct Engrish spellings (Butterfry -> Butterfly) and formatting quirks (Girl Friend -> Girlfriend).

I also never translate anything, especially in terms of Korean releases since, even though a lot of Korean songs have English in the title, it isn't always meant to be a translation.

Basically, my method is to keep everything as close to the original language as possible using English characters so I can read it.

I am so anal about tagging lol

I tag everything the same as it is on the CD :P If the CD says that the title is in kanji then I put in in kanji even if I have no idea what I mean lol I even leave all the dodgy punctuation and stuff

I really hate it when people mess up the stuff. Like if someone posts Boys and Girls instead of Boys & Girls or Hanabi instead of HANABI I feel like killing them lol

I have my own special rules about tagging. I'm OCD about alphabetical order, so I romanize all the artist names and track titles. And while I can read Japanese, I can only guess with Chinese and my Korean is pretty non-existent, so I like everything to be in Roman letters.

With the covers, I tend to always put the cover of the CD I own, or that I'm likely to buy. So if there is a CD and a CD+DVD version, I almost always put the CD only cover.

I also must have the release year, the track number, etc.

I'm medium^^

Last.fm turned me into freak.

I would die *shudders*


For song names, I use the romaji since I alphabetize all my playlists, but I'll also put the kanji/cyrillic/hangul/etc. and translated title in parenthesis :D

I just romanize the artist name though because it's easier for me to find on the main iTunes screen.
