As some people may know, the number of "temporary" tags in the system has been getting out of control. Ideally, whenever people create a temporary tag they are supposed to post their sources in a thread on the forum, but even though this is limited to high-MP users, in practice, this often doesn't happen.

A new system has now been developed to help address this issue. Now, whenever someone creates a new temporary tag, they will be redirected to a new Tag Justification form where they are required to provide the desired namespace and any available sources for the tag. The tag will then enter a formal approval process.

Agoraphobia and Shank made a detailed writeup on how this process works, but in short, this is how it works:

1. Someone makes a temp: tag on a gallery. They are then redirected to a form requesting namespace and sources for the tag.

2. The tag will show up on the new temp tags tracker. This is accessible to all registered users.

3. Moderators will be able to track new tags as they are added, approve the ones that are properly sourced, and either request additional information or outright reject any tags that aren't. Rejected tags will be fully deleted from the system.

The person who created the tag will be informed of approvals, rejections and revision requests via PM. You can also view all your pending tags from this page.

Anyone with a mod power of at least 2 (effectively everyone who isn't a brand new user) can leave comments on newly created tags, but keep in mind that this is intended for useful information to help approve or reject the tag. Anyone habitually leaving useless comments will be blocked from doing so.

Note that while the new system is being phased in, the requirement for adding new temp tags directly will remain the same (25+ MP), but this may be reduced in the future. Other people should still use the request thread for now.
