How about something like:

  • {tagsboxtop} Like userboxbottom. maybe even a redirect.
  • {tagsboxbottom}
  • {tags|a|b|more=}
    {tags}
    {tags|more=}
    {tags|a|b}
  • {Tag more=} blank template so tags more= works.
  • {end of tags}
    As in {tags|...|more=} ... {end of tags}
    this may just be a redirect to tagsboxbottom
  • {more tags|a|b}
    Like tags, maps a and b to Tag_a and Tag_b.
    So you can do {tags|a|b|more=} {Tag c} {more tags|d|e} {Tag f} {end of tags}
  • {Tag this} and {Tag that} like userboxes {Tag math} {Tag science} {Tag grade|3} {Tag release status beta} whatever

And finally, maybe topical:

  • {activity tags|foo=a|bar=b|c|d|more=}
    Like {tags...}, but takes some topical named arguments.
    This allows us to constrain the order of boxes. And complain about missing required arguments.
    So activities could always have name first, then status, then... .
