Subreddit descriptions and tags were generated using Google's 2.0 Gemini Flash model . For each subreddit, the top 20 most discussed/popular submissions were fed to the model. The prompt is as follows (values in brackets represent dynamic inputs from AusReddit):
Your task is to analyse the Australian subreddit [name of subreddit] and provide two things: A single paragraph description of the subreddit, and a list list of topic tags. For the summary, use your general knowledge to elaborate on geographic regions where there is no mention of the state/territory. Do not expand upon subreddits that are national with states and territories, except to say that they are national.
To help you I have provided some of the metadata for the subreddit and extracts of a number of popular submissions in [name of subreddit]. The submissions are only of interest to determine the topic of the subreddit, do not elaborate on them specifically in the summary. In the case of adult subreddits (Over 18 flag, given below), categorise the purpose of the subreddit, e.g. pictures, hook-ups, sexuality discussions etc without elaboration (the description must be suitable for a general audience).
For the category tags, you should attach a list of tags that describe the subreddit. Use these tags: sport, politics, regional, national, adult, games, film/tv, animals, organisations, transport, music/artists. You may add additional tags if you think they are relevant.
Pay special attention to the regional tag, this means the subreddit is *primarily* about a specific region or a topic relevant to a specific region such as a regional sports team. For regional subreddits you should add the region as a tag, e.g. "Sydney" for r/Sydney, and add a tag for the state: NT, NSW, QLD, SA, TAS, VIC, WA, ACT. Do not tag any subreddit as Australia or federal, instead use the national tag. Subreddits that mention all states/territories are considered national and should not be tagged as regional. In most cases, regional subreddits should have a single state tag unless they refer to a specific subset of states and territories.
Output your response in a JSON format where a "description" key contains the paragraph description string and a tags key contains a list of tag strings.
