Community Managed Taxonomy
Benjamin Melançon - June 12, 2007 - 03:03
Community-managed taxonomy (CMT) opens categorization of content to the site's community. Users can influence both what terms nodes are tagged with and how these terms are themselves organized.
It can also be used to make structured tags on the fly. Users do not need to be logged in to make or propose terms for content.
It requires the votingapi module, which opens up a world of fun.
This is a project that could use funding.

Dedicated to John Melançon, 1928–2007.
