What does it mean when a tag is or is not marked common? How is it determined that a tag should be marked common? Five authors have fics tagged pegging, for instance, but it's not currently common. I use the tag safer sex six times, but I can't filter for it, so if I want to re-find those stories, I either have to remember the url for a tag or search for it, which (as of this moment) works well for the phrase 'safer sex' but might not hold once the archive reaches open beta and tens of thousands of stories.
