563069 - Tags implementation on addons detail page is craptastical

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 600685

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, defect)

Description

[Dave Dash [:davedash, :dd] (assign all bugs to mbrandt)]

Need some design ideas.

Let's assume a popular addon (E.g. adblock plus).

Let's say it has tags from users:

ad ad ads foo bar

so we'd display:

ad
ads
foo
bar

If I was one of the two people to tag this addon as "ad."  In theory a red x
will show up.  The page will reload and internally we'll know we have the
following tags:

ad ads foo bar

and display:

ad
ads
foo
bar

same as before -- confusing user behavior.

It might be nice to indicate which tags are your tags and which aren't.  We
could use a different icon, or split them up in the display... e.g:

Your Tags:
ad

Everyones Tags:
ad
ads
foo
bar

or optionally omit your tags from Everyones Tags.

I prefer splitting them as it's more obvious that 1. which tags I *can* delete
and 2. that if I delete a tag, it may still be present, but at least not under
*my* tags.

Thanks,
