I've noticed many people are tagging with topv instead of top-v.

re: 'I've noticed many people are tagging with topv instead of top-v.'
~lee/: Both "top-v" and "topv" are legitimate, as both reduce to the same truncation.
re: 'more and more members are tagging with 222, and it doesn´t exist!'
.Tatiana: "222", although not a legitimate 'top-v' tag, should only be corrected by an admin if:
1- there is no "111" tag in the user's tag list, and
2- if the photo's view count has not yet reached '333'.
'top-v111' is merely the group's qualifier tag; it allows admin to determine whether an image has met top-v's only rule:
Top-v's Only Rule?:
Members may submit up to a maximum of 11 images to the top-v pool,
at any given time, provided those images are tagged to show they have
acquired not less than 111 views.
It will happen, on occasion, that an image isn't submitted to the top-v pool until it has been viewed, say, 555 times.
In this case, adding either or both of 'top-v111' and 'top-v333' to the image isn't necessary, provided that the most recent view count ('top-v555' in this example) is assigned.
Hope that helps! :`)

I mean does anybody ever check pictures tagged with codes like top-v111 etc? I wouldn't have a clue what to do with such tags They sound like a car number plate to me...

With the local search you can check with these codes other top-v photos of any user.
For example: photo guerilla's photos tagged with topv111

And you still only see the photos that are currently in this pool - not all my most seen photos.

-eti-: since people can only have 11 photos in the pool at any one time, being able to search by the tag allows the discovery of older Top-V photos.

oh, are we allowed to keep the tags afterward?

-eti-:Yes, you may keep the tags attached to any photos which are no longer submitted to/do not currently reside in the top-v pool. Labeling a photo with a top-v tag is like receiving a badge of honor from your peers, since their views indicate your photo's popularity. If you want to see who has photos with the same popularity rating as yours, you would perform a tag search with that label. Of course, the tag search only works when images ARE tagged the same way yours are, even if those images have been viewed as frequently as yours.
Because top-v group receives a huge number of photos each day, it was necessary to restrict member submissions to the maximum number of 11. Group admin police both the pool and the Top Posters list daily to make sure this rule is enforced, giving members the opportunity to appreciate new content before it gets buried. Members may change their 11 photos around as often as they like, provided each submitted image has a minimum of 111 views.
Leaving a top-v111 tag on an image which has reached, say, top-v555 status has no other purpose than for tag searching. Pairing keyword qualifiers like "top-v999" (778 photos) and "bubbles" (5722 photos), for example (3 photos), help refine your search. If you are trying to find a particular image in your photo stream, using the tag search tool won't work if you didn't tag or title the image. Note that searching Your tags is not done the same way as searching Flickr tags.
Hope this helps. :`)

Julie70: You are only required to have one legitimate top-v tag on images submitted to this group. If you choose to continue updating them as they increase in views, you may, but this is not a requirement. Usually the first tag is 'top-v111', because that is the minimum number of views required for entry into this group, but an image may be submitted at any point, provided it has achieved at least 111 views. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have further questions. I apologize for the lack of assistance offered by my colleague in the previous admin comment. :`)

Tags / top-v555
There aren't any photos available to you tagged with "top-v555".
What does it mean?
There is one of my pics and I couldn't see it ;-(

Sorry, I joined and shared photos without realising there was this complicated tagging business. Do you have to update the tags the more views you get? I don't think I have time for this. Will just take mine images off, I think.

No you don't have to update them, Lori. You really only need one legitimate top-v tag per photo. The default tag (minimum group view requirements) is 'top-v111'.

Photo Gorilla, But it's a bit tricky to get my 'number' (49503212857@N01), isn't it?
not at all. it's what you click on the "photos you've added" link next to the pictures!
Sorry anyway but I find all the tagging stuff too complicated. When adding to a group, you don't see the group's requirements, so when you add a picture to 5 or 10 groups you'd have to go to all those groups afterwards to see if they have rules for tags etc.
I also find those big reminders in people's photostreams a bit intrusive. i'll just limit myself to other groups.

well, i can't see any pictures tagged with more than 555. it always shows for example:
There aren't any photos available to you tagged with "top-v9999".
You might like to try something else from the main tags page.
is this problem known?

etu: you are supposed to know the group's submission requirements BEFORE you add photos to it. Doing so without respect to the group's rules is called SPAMMING.
yetused: If you are using the correct tool for the job, rather than your own PERSONAL tag search for example - you should be pulling up results from any/all available tags listed on Top-V group's description page.
IE: this is Flickr's most current search result on the "top-v9999" Tag.
((This result is not exclusive of Top-V pool content, as, it also reflects images on which the owners, for personal reasons, choose to apply the "top-v9999" tag.))
A quick search of YOUR tags shows you do not have anything containing the "top-v555" tag, but other Flickrites do.
Does this address your point?

Group description page Porn ruling update:
As a 'Family oriented Public Group', Top-V is governed by Flickr's "Porn " ruling, which is clearly laid out in Flickr's Community Guidelines as "DON'T Upload photos to Public areas of Flickr with content that includes frontal nudity, genitalia or anything else that your bathing suit should cover, and 2) DON'T upload to public or private areas of Flickr content that is considered illegal in public and/or private areas (ie: the type of content which is typically permitted ONLY in Groups / Alternative / 18+ areas).
Top-V Administrators will err on the side of discretion when deciding whether Flickr's Porn classification should be assigned to a particular photo. However, deliberately offensive photos, explicit nudity, or photos that are clearly not of artistic value will be summarily deleted. Repeat offenders risk not only being permanently banned from Top-V group, but they also risk having their images/photostreams voted 'May Offend' by their offended peers - two votes on any image in your photostream will 1) effectively flag it for removal from ALL public spaces on Flickr (NIPSA'd), and 2) will place your entire photostream under FLICKR.COM review.

L8o please don't get ridiculous, forgetting to add a code tag like TOPV8888 is hardly spamming.
If anything, adding large colorful drawings containing commands in the comments might be considered spamming. I delete such comments because they're intrusive.

eti: re "forgetting to add a code tag like TOPV8888 is hardly spamming"
Flooding (adding up to 11 images/day) Top-V's (3606 members, 19,247 photos) pool while ignoring its single Group Requirement - every image must contain at least one Top-V tag - is most definitely considered SPAMMING: Content which hasn't earned the right to be there forces legitimate submissions to the back of the pool.
Tips Regarding Tag Delinquency:
An image must accumulate 111 views for Top-V eligibility. That task achieved, said image must contain the "top-v111" tag. Members may opt to upgrade the tags on their images as views continue to accumulate (ie: 'top-v8888'), but it is not a requirement.
Admins will occasionally add an upgraded tag to point out the success of a particular member's image. Such additions should never be considered a reprimand, and, if a member finds such additions to be photostream intrusive, they should immediately advise Top-V admin.
- Stage One: New members will be gently reminded.
(..depending on the circumstance, several omitted tags may be added in their behalf.)
- Stage Two: Chronic repeat offenders will be warned.
(..along with adding the missing tag, A) a reminder comment will be added to their photostream; in advanced cases B) the Top-V reminder badge tool may be added to their photostream comment. If they still have a problem, they may be sent a gentle Flickrmail reminder outlining the efforts taken thus far.)
- Stage Three: At this point, if a member adamantly refuses adherence to our only rule, they would be banned.
(..a Flickrmail explanation is sent with regrets, advising that they may reapply for group membership if they can demonstrate compliance to Top-V's one rule.)
Top-V admins are very helpful despite the huge task they daily face in this dynamic, very high traffic group. Having to add Top-V's qualifier tag (or in certain circumstances, delete the 20 images some members submit in error - members can rotate their 11 pool image limit as often as they wish) to thousands [-- yes, 'daily'--] of group submissions is not their responsibility, but Top-V admins will attempt to assist/educate members wherever possible. :`)
That said, Top-V membership has always been a delight to work with. I don't recall ever hearing about member-to-member, or member-to-admin conflict. We most certainly have never had to exercise the options in our Stage Three scenario.
Many thanks to Top-V members for being such a highly cooperative bunch! :`)
Hope this explains my original SPAMMING comment for you, eti:.

Just a clarification: Is it 11 photos for all top-v groups together, or 11 photos per group?
Posted 28 months ago.

I'm not sure what you are asking, togr. There is only one "Top-V/min. 111 views per photo/max. 11 photos per member" group. It is flickr's original top views group, and, it is the only one with the 11 photo pool max - each of those 11 photos must have a minimum of 111 views to qualify for submission to our pool.
Does this answer your question?
Posted 28 months ago.

I suppose. What I meant was that there are more than a dozen top-v groups:
top-v111 (111-332 views)
top-v333 (333-554 views)
top-v555 (555-776 views)
etc...
and I was wondering whether the 11 photos limit was for all of these counted together, or for this group by itself. From your answer, I gather the limit is for this group alone.
Thanks!

so I'm actually here for a question of my own, but I'll start out with a response to togr first:
I think there's only the one group, and that's top-v. There are multiple tags, which you can apply to as many (qualifying, presumably, though this group isn't technically the boss of this point) images as you like. Submission of images to the group pool, however, is limited to the 11 images.
Or at least that's how I'm reading it.
Now, my question is this: what do people think about whether or not to keep around lower-count tags as an image increases in view count? The way I read the description for this gorup, it seems like all of the tags excepting the final top-v9999 tag have an upper limit to the number of qualifying views -- and while I understand that it's not required to maintain things carefully (good, because I wouldn't always be able to), my thinking is that if I notice an image of mine that used to have, say, 143 views, and was tagged with top-v111 now had 382 views, I would add the tag top-v333, remove the tag top-v111, and that would be that.
Now, that's basically what I was doing, but the thing that motivates me to ask this question is that I noticed that one of my images to which I added a top-v777 tag (or some such thing), before it ever had a top-v111 tag, because I hadn't added it previously, got a top-v111 tag added to it by someone else.
I don't particularly mind that, but isn't that "wrong" according to the way the group description reads? What do others do on this point?
edit: the counter argument to removing them is that it could be nice to have each tag accumulate, so if I did a tag search within my pool for top-v333, I'd see all images with 333+ views, rather than only the ones in the [333,555) range. But still, that's how it's written... so soliciting feedback from the group and/or its admins.
Thanks,
David

Ref the previous post: I have been erasing previous tags as my views have escalated. As I read the discussion above, this is no problem, but there may be some benefit in searching, and it is not against the rules to retain all of the previous and obsoleted tags.
Now, should I go back and restore all the deleted tags?

It's entirely up to you RobW. Re: using the tags as a search feature - were you thinking to benefit others or yourself here? (ie: worthwhile re-adding if You use tag search on Your photos a lot.) I know that tags are one of the tools the api developers utilize in their cool, new flickr toys. :`)

@JOF71 - the reminder badge was designed for exactly that purpose - so ugly that it would be removed once members acknowledge its alert. Admins regularly revisit comments tagged this way, and, will remove any remaining badges once the member demonstrates correct tagging behavior. Thanks for adding to Top-V! :`)

@  - lolly180 : Yep, that's right. By the way, we no longer need to add the "-" or "." because flickr tag searches are now truncated (extra characters like "-", "_" and "." are disregarded, or treated as if they weren't there) However, adding them in to your searches will return the same result as not adding them. So as not to cause confusion for everyone whose images have previously been tagged with the old format (adding in the extra characters as in 'top-v111'), I've left the original tag list examples up. Welcome to Top-V, Lolly. :`)
