Not "addressed by photo artists", but tagged by photographers who are members of that specific site.

Anyway, a list of topics addressed by photo artist would be more than a dictionary would yield...

My list: everything, anything, and then some. First standards, now lists of subjects. This is ridiculous.

Sometimes when I feel like I am in a rut and want to explore all the world of photography has to offer, I think of all the category my work fits into.

Just for fun. Even that tapped the bottomless well of bitterness.

I've come to the conclusion that you are motivated to engage the forum by "poking the bear" repeatedly, apparently for the sheer perverse fun of it.

I dont like using "tags" to look at pictures, its too disjointed, too many are repeated in different categories.
I would much prefer that each person was listed in what ever order they choose and a brief bio of what they are about, then I could look at each photographers work.
Noticed this guys work looks interesting http://lenscratch.com/2018/02/carey-roberson-the-states-project-arkansas/ , there probably a lot more, but the format is tiresome and laborious......I particularly hate labels.

I think that list is simply an extra resource, incidental result of new issue every day.

Not sure I completely understand your perspective but I certainly do think the notion of "standards" on Photrio is a silly and authoritarian case of advocating for those "tags." you dislike.

I'd take that a bit further and mention the "art" standards of oppressive political groups. There will always be people who want to control others via authorized language and terminology (Photrio's emerging "standards"). IMO they need to be called out.
