[Scratch Wiki] Project Tag Trends
I'm doing a bit of research for the Scratch Wiki. My question is, have Scratchers seen any interesting or wide spread trends involving project tags? If you're not sure what project tags are, or are unsure, look below:

Currently I have heard about:
Please comment below if you've seen these trends, or if you haven't. Linking to example projects would be nice! Also, if you've seen other trends, please say so below!
I would appreciate it if I could get as many replies as possible!

Currently I have heard about:
- Project tags that spell out phrases. Example: hello, im, steve
- Putting your username in the project tags.

I've seen tags such as:
I,dont,tag
In every single one of my projects, I put my username in. I always put the “collab” or “collaboration” tag on any collab projects. I always put the type of art I shared in art projects, such as “poly” “vector” “gimp” etc.
I hope I helped

I wouldn't really count this as a trend.. but some people put games, art, and animations as tags so that they get it on more pages to get more views.

I tend to actually put what the project is about for tags.
But for CCs, I do coloring, contest, cc.
Maybe others do the same.

I put “apu” as a tag on all of my projects, since no one ever actually searches by tag for any non major tags like games or art, and I usually don't have a popular enough 3rd tag to use.

It's one of the major scratch tags along with animations, art, simulations, stories, and music. (Major meaning this popup: game is a very popular tag

)

Something that I do is always add some form of “potato” to all of my project tags, each one is different.
