tags for compilations


2016-09-16 (updated 2016-09-21)
We have some compilations in UVL for various reasons, mostly because there is something interesting beyond being just a collection of games. I think we ought to tag these reasons. This is not just for searching, it also shows users, new editors, and potential editors, why a certain compilation is included while most are not.
compilation-port includes game(s) ported from other platforms (Super Mario All-Stars, Sega Classics)
compilation-emulation includes emulated game(s)
compilation-exclusive compilation includes exclusive-to-this-platform game(s)
compilation-exclusivereleased compilation includes game(s) that was originally released as a platform exclusive
compilation-prototype includes prototype/beta game(s)
compilation-unreleased includes previously unreleased game(s)
compilation-rare includes rare game(s)
compilation-regiondenied includes formally region-denied game(s) (Not previously in Europe, Japan exclusive, etc.)
compilation-fixed includes game(s) with a fix or workaround for issues dealt with poorly (or not at all) in the original.
compilation-alternate includes alternate content for game(s)
compilation-newcontent includes new content for game(s)
compilation-censored (patet)
compilation-uncensored (patet)

re: tags for compilations
There's some overlap with port variants with those if the compilation is for different platform (usually the case).

compilation-exclusive compilation includes exclusive-to-platform game(s)

Exclusive to the original platform or to current one?

Current. But thank you for noting the situation of when "platform exclusive" games end up in a compilation.
