Just need to decide on a common format. We’re starting to use the <category>:<title> format more and more often, so I had suggested previously to use ask:fluffle puff or ask:velvet etc. as the default format and alias other versions to the default.

But what about blogs that don’t have ask in their name, like The Royal Sketchbook or Horse Wife? Would they get the same ask prefix? “ask:horse wife” or “ask:royal sketchbook” look weird imo.
 
Plus, and that’s probably more important than my personal taste, it would be super inconsistent. These blogs would keep their full name after the prefix, while “Ask Velvet”, “Ask Fluffle Puff” and “Ask Stalkerloo” lose the “Ask” in their name.

Are there any askblog-style things not on tumblr? … Even if not, probably would be better to go with the more general “blog:”, just in case, wouldn’t it?

Sounds good to me, i think at some point I even requested something similar, but that was years ago.  
Blog would be the better choice, since not everyone uses tumblr, I saw some of the asks on diviant art as well, and not all the blogs are called ask.

We’re also debating adding a new tag color category for all fan creation type stuff such as comic:* blog:* fanfic:* etc.

I would love that as well. Might do that with the official episodes, actually, there it might be good to have two, one for episode: and one for special:

All official animation and literary titles should be getting the gold tag coloration soon: comic series, books, etc., but we hadn’t discussed prepending their names with something like that.
 
We might put in a short description for those though, like “G. M. Berrow short novel” or “MLP:FiM Season 1 episode 5” or “Equestria Girls movie 2” or “Equestria Girls short special 3” or “IDW Fiendship is Magic issue 2/5” etc.

But we should make sure we don’t end up with “blog:ask someone” and “blog:asksomeone” duplication again. :)
