Using tags

Tags are a curated Oracle vocabulary. Add up to five to a topic; common spellings resolve automatically and new terms become suggestions.

How tags work #

  • Tags describe cross-cutting subjects — features, error families, practices — independently of the category.
  • A topic can have up to 5 tags.
  • Tags come from a curated Oracle vocabulary maintained by moderators.

Adding tags #

Start typing in the Tags field and choose from the suggestions.

  • Aliases: common alternative spellings resolve to the canonical tag automatically.
  • Error codes: a tag in an Oracle error-code pattern is created automatically.
  • New terms: anything else is sent to moderators as a suggestion. It is not added to your topic as a live tag until a moderator approves it.
  • Legacy tags remain visible on older topics and are marked as legacy.

Browsing by tag #

Tags lists the vocabulary with the number of topics you can see. A tag page lists its topics and its description. A link that uses one of a tag's alternative spellings opens the same tag page.
