tag lists

OK I've been trying to work out ways of doing this.

As a start, I made history/tags/tag work slightly differently. Now, instead of getting 404 page not found at history/tags, you get a list of all tags that have history articles, with the number of articles in it and a link to the history/tags/tag url. (John this isn't the same as directory)

That's a start - about to do the same thing for news.

At the moment libcom.org/tags is a different page, but if we kill the url alias for that page or change it to a different path, libcom.org/tags could be a list of all tags everywhere on the site - again with the number of articles attached. It won't be as pretty but it'll work.

Which just made me think we should maybe have a tag cloud on all /tags/ pages as well, not that it affects this.

http://libcom.org/news/tags
http://libcom.org/history/tags
http://libcom.org/library/tags

all set up. The 15 a page is because the main views are 15/page. If we use argument handling code at a later date we might be able to change this - maybe even to the alpha pager or something.

At last a reason for the /tags/ in the url as well!

http://libcom.org/news/tags/on-the-job-action
needs to go, there's already 'on-the-job action'
WeTheYouth probably shouldn't be a tag either

tag lists are useful, do they update automatically?cause one that I added wasn't on the list.

they are alpha but can't get alphbetical pager on it yet. Except the main tags one seems to be a bit weird.
