FYI, even fandom tags like characters and pairings are author tags. AO3 does not apply ANYTHING to a work that the uploader didn't include. If more than one person or work has the same tag, regardless of what it is, it's archived for searching.

IDK all that much but aren't there archive tags authors can choose from "underage" being one?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, authors can check boxes for warning categories, relationship types, etc but those aren't tags and are handled differently on both front and back end. I think you're talking about including an underage warning that specifies age ranges? Because there is already a tag for underage/underage, it's just a matter if authors choose to use it or not. As a former AO3 staff member, I think more people would use the archive warning (check box) than currently use the tag just because it would be visible.

But changing the current warnings is a slippery slope so it isn't going to happen. It's up to the authors to tag their works, not AO3 to police them. That's why AO3 always has and still encourages people to tag their works with all applicable tags about characters, relationships, and content. If they don't, readers are limited to finding or filtering out the content they do or do not want to view.
