This chapter is about the full list of Webtags. The names of the webtags are basically functional i.e. you can guess what the value says. The order of the tags in ''the local list'' is unknown, most likely it is a mix of time of origin, functionality and alphabetical ordering. | This chapter is about the full list of Webtags. The names of the webtags are basically functional i.e. you can guess what the value says. The order of the tags in ''the local list'' is unknown, most likely it is a mix of time of origin, functionality and alphabetical ordering. The order of the tags in the full list is functional i.e. they are grouped by an arbitrary functional partition. Within such group no effort has been made to order according to another ordinal. | ||

At the time of this writing (25 september 2022) there are 870 distinct Webtags by name in the local list. The reader must be aware the full list may have flaws at any moment in time caused by the shear amount of tags and the speed of change in the software. | At the time of this writing (25 september 2022) there are 870 distinct Webtags by name in the local list.

== Inconsistency of tag names == | |||
The naming of the tags can sometime be confusing. The long history of development of Cumulus(MX) has left its traces and although technically corrections can be made, the effort to do that is such that I won't bet on it happening. So a short guide to what can be expected follows here. | |||
For a shor history of inconsistency you may read [[Webtags_(preserving_history)#General_Format_for_Web_Tags|here]]. | |||
#Inconsistency in use of "Y": The character "Y" has been selected to denote yesterday in tag names. The inconsistency is where it appears. e.g. rfallY, YSunshineHours, Ybeaufort, windAvgY | |||
#Inconsistency in Month and Year for this month and this year: #YearLongestDryPeriod, #SunshineHoursYear both as prefix and postfix they mean the same. | |||
#Inconsistency in use of "T": Where the "T" is added as indicating the time of the event (High or Low) e.g. leading to T<tag name>TH, this method is not consistently followed and may lead to some confusion. E.g. tempTH (the value for the temperature at its maximum) and TtempTH (for the time of that corresponding value). But also YearDewPointH (years highest dewpoint) and YearDewPointHT for the time of the event i.s.o. TYearDewPointH (which does not exist but which might have been more consistent). | |||
Whatever you find and use, make sure you understand what you are looking at (you may need tests to verify). If the lists below are not correct, again you are invited to share or correct your discoveries. | |||
