Wait. What's the whole Freeform thing?

I started using AO3 for the first time recently, and one of my tags automatically got the word "freeform" attached. I was like, "what?" But the intended audience has been finding the fic, so I haven't really concerned myself with it. After this comment, however, I'm interested in finding out what the term refers to on the site.

I've been using AO3 from day one and I am just as confused as you.

As far as I can tell, it's just one more way to ensure filtering will not work on AO3...

Freeform is any "extra" tag that's not Relationship, Character, or Fandom. As to why -freeform got added, that happens when you put something in the additional tags that's already a canonical tag in another category, because tags have to be unique.

Sorry this is a stupid example, but suppose your fic involved drifting cherry blossom petals and you decided to tag it "sakura." Sakura is the name of a character in several fandoms, so that tag name is "taken" and your tag would become sakura-freeform. Does that make sense? See also here:

ayrt

Well, that makes it even stranger, then, because the tag I used is specific to my fandom. :-/

Ahh, thank you for the explanation, though.
