Shade is being in the shadow of something outdoors - trees, buildings, beach umbrellas, etc - to avoid direct sunlight. That's what "being under the shade" usually means in English. Shadow is just any kind of shadow.
I see a lot of things tagged shade I don't really agree with, most of which seem due to zeparoh. See shade user:zeparoh.
For that matter I don't completely agree with everything tagged shadow. Shadow should be for stuff like post #2534998 or post #2533872 where shadows are prominent, not for totally normal shading like in post #2537220. Practically everything has some form of shading unless it's lineart or flat colors.
Is there any reason for the room tag? It seems mostly to depict scenes in bedrooms with some dining rooms and other rooms thrown in for variety. It seems to me this is a useless tag and everything in it should just be tagging with bedroom, dining room, etc where appropriate.
I have been tagging specific cases as classroom + indoors for instance. Like when I search for the first I'm looking for images set inside a building; when I search bedroom I'm looking for views inside that particular type of room, in a building, hence also indoors. I guess there are cases where a bedroom could be in view but not 'indoors' such as your above examples but I think in general besides such cases both tags are suitable. Maybe another tag could be in order however. The third one seems like a clear case of train interior, I don't think the interiors of vehicles should be considered 'indoors' though perhaps some would not agree; and the last looks to be outdoors with a view of a room interior (Maybe a tag room_interior would be suitable as a tag for all those cases besides the train? It would certainly become well populated).
I fixed your fix. DText uses NO angular brackets in its format. You're thinking HTML and translation notes.

This is a translation note with DText

I left your other fixes since it should be tailored to basic members. This makes me wonder though if there are other such links in the wiki that only work for certain levels of users and above ...?
@Fireminer: Click the '?' next to the artist in the tag list, then click edit in the navbar and add the new URL in the URLs box. Someone else already did it for you, but that's how you update an artist.
Speaking of indoors, apparently someone edited the indoors wikipage with a really obscure line I can't really understand why they would put there. I think someone should take a look at that.
EDIT: Looking through it he has some other edits, some are alright but others are a little... dubious? This for example:
(how much the art corresponds to reality in the sense of living subjects and inanimate objects that are not drawn as captured by photos)
I mean I suppose it kind of makes sense? Not exactly the definition I'd give, and I'm one for conciseness -- and the original phrasing is fine as is, IMO.
I second the notion. There's no big reason for regular users to be able to edit the page -- if they want to make an edit suggestion to it, they'll probably end up on this thread anyway.
EDIT: Ah, I see Provence has replied. Still though, if there are edits to be made to such an important page, I think it's important to discuss it first. But it's up to you guys.
The only thing I can imagine is that the howto wiki pages should only be open for Builders+ users, simply because one normally can trust Builder users since there is a reason why they are Builders. But yeah, that might be an issue for a seperate topic.
Anyways, @usernam : Please stop making such edits that aren't helpful and are more vandalism.
I wouldn't consider those edits to be vandalism. They're not bad intentioned, they're just of dubious quality.
I'm not a fan of locking things either unless it's really really necessary. It's not fair to block everyone just because one guy made a single bad edit that took five seconds to revert. Skimming through wiki histories, I see very few true acts of vandalism. In fact, a lot of our help pages had large amounts of work done by lady garegga, who IIRC was a regular member at the time.
Anyways, if they want to edit something as important as the howto wiki, they should in my opinion be talking about it in the forums. Other users received also bad/neutral feedbacks because of not talking about the content according to some feedbacks..
I meant to say "Do not use the tag 'inside'--inside of what? All parts are inside of totality."
"The totality", or simply "totality", is that which is not a part of anything (it only contains, it is the container, not contained by a larger container); the particular contents of everything is contained within totality. Space and time is inside of totality. All images here are empirical representations, and all images take up space; therefore, the tag "space" (not to be confused with "outer_space") is applicable to all images here. And since "space" is "inside of" / "a part of" totality then the tag "inside" is also universally applicable. The opposite of totality is perhaps the philosophical concept of the monad: that which has no parts.
Secondly, "good art" / "art that is accepted here" has a certain level of realism; they are not poorly drawn MS Paint stick figures. When I say "realism" I mean that all the parts of reality that we observe with our sight are correctly drawn (they mainly correspond to photos of non-drawn stuff) but not always in the usual unity (such as dick_nipplespenis_nipples).
