when you click add tags, it covers the description when there is a lomg list of results preventing you from being able to provide the specific tags required for depicts. Also, please remove the tag "forehead" its crap and turns out to be rather racist: i have only seen it on people of color.

Also please turn off architecture and hairstyle: these are getting applied to everything which makes them useless.

The tags are automatically suggested by the Cloud Vision API, and we only display the tags with the highest confidence scores. We do not do filtering of the type you are suggesting. Regarding the description being sometimes covered, this is a known issue, and is a limitation of Android. It cannot be changed.

@Sadads There's no app-specific workflow for this, but as far as I understand we should be affected by the blacklist Keegan talks about in a thread you're involved in over at Commons, which probably makes more sense than trying to solve this specifically on the app side instead of in general.

@CGauthier (WMF) That is a different standard than what is set on Commons per the structured data team, and you should make sure that you have the right end points per @Johan (WMF).

Moreover, as for the search: that is exactly one of the problems that the team on Commons is trying to address with their upcoming overhaul: making sure that the rest of the contextual metadata is available for folks who are adding depicts statements (they aren't tags btw -- they never have been tags, and the use of tags as a concept trips up new users, and is deceptive).
