PAL/NTSC vs. NTSC/PAL fixed

Can someone please explain how to use the video system tags properly, because I already had a little discussion with Moloch about that.

From my point of view, a crack with a NTSC-fix will be tagged PAL/NTSC, so original format first, followed by format it was fixed for. So PAL-fixed stuff should be called NTSC/PAL then. This also was common usage in the past, as far as I remember.

Maybe change the label to "any (PAL fixed)" or "any (NTSC fixed)" to make it clear. (Cannot always be determinded from the credits.)

Don't care much about cracks..

But what if I release a demo that only works on NTSC or intentionally works on PAL and NTSC. Should I label it in some specific way? I have done this in the past and would like to know for the future.

then you label it as "PAL" or "NTSC" - obviously.

At least in one case the [NTSC] tag was removed by an operator and the demo won't even work an PAL. So I'm still wondering what the correct labeling should be.

sure it was a moderator and not some hyperactive tagging specialist? =)
however, in such case simply complain (and lock the entry) (which entry was that anyway? :))
