Wikigogy's standard keyword set helps you search for and identify pages.

To add keywords to a new page, type {{subst:keyword}} at top of the page, save to expand the substitution, then trim down the keyword set till it identifies the page accurately -- delete lines and keywords that don't apply. Related keywords go together on one line.

[edit] List of Keywords

[edit] Star

The star keyword rates quality of a page

If you disagree with a page's rating, change its star keyword and say why you did on its talk page.

4star excellent page or lesson
3star good page or lesson -- welcome to make it excellent
2star satisfactory page or lesson -- welcome to improve it
1star poor page or lesson -- welcome to improve it
0star unsatisfactory page or lesson -- welcome to fix it
  • star, no plural s; its an adjective and we need to standardize this for search to work.
  • If you see spam on a page please don't rate it, please fix the problem by deleting the spam from the page. If you are not sure, mark it with {{spam}}. Thanks!
  • If a page is off topic or outside our goals please fix it or mark it with the delete tag
    {{deletebecause|type reason here and sign ~~~~}} and another user will look at it.

20min may be about 20 minutes long
30min may be about 30 minutes long
50min may be about 50 minutes long

[edit] School level

School level -- list more than one if appropriate

preschool preschool age ~ 2-5 year-olds
kinder kindergarten age ~ 5-6 year-olds
primary_school primary school age ~ 6-11 year-olds
middle_school middle school age ~ 11-13 year-olds
high_school high school age ~ 13-17 year-olds

postgrad post graduate age ~ 21 and older, academically involved
vocational vocational school age ~ 16 and older, in vocational school

[edit] Language level

Language level -- list more than one if appropriate

Consider age and school level of student: ll_9 is comparable to language ability of an average native English speaker of the same age and school level as the student being measured. So ll_9 for a ten year old student is different from ll_9 for a college student. ll_1 through ll_8 are incremental measures up the ladder from raw beginner English to native speaker English of comparable age and school level. Is this a good way to measure for this site's purposes? I don't know. I think it is a practical subjective starting point. Someone more knowledgeable than I may pin it to more concreate measures on a Language level page. Please do, or comment about this on the Talk page.

ll_1 low beginning
ll_2 mid beginning
ll_3 high beginning
ll_4 low intermediate
ll_5 mid intermediate
ll_6 high intermediate
ll_7 low advanced
ll_8 mid advanced
ll_9 high advanced -- comparable to native English speaker of the same age and school level as student being measured

That is lowercase LL for language level, plus underscore and a number. Keywords must be at least 4 characters long; do not omit the underscore.

[edit] Country

[Any Country Name] If you find a page especially relevant to and useful within a particular country add the name of the country (or list of countries) as the last keyword line of a page's keywords. For example, teaching materials or tips you find especially successful in China, Japan and Vietnam could be labled with keywards "* China Japan Vietnam". I'm not sure how country keywords will be. Talk about this idea on the Talk page.
