General Tag Discussion

@Yoshimon1  
yeah

@ILoveGiantPoniesYAY!  
I tried adding a tag with IE just now and it didn’t give me any issues. Maybe something screwy happened while loading the page and you just needed to refresh it?

Is there a tag for images like this, where a pony is depicted with individual hairs?

“Detailed hair”

Should we give the ponibooru tag a pinkening?

@Binkyt11  
Am I the only one who thinks we should color the Pinkie Pie tag pink instead of blue? I know the color’s meant to differentiate what kind of tag it is, but how in-character is it for Pinkie Pie to have a pink tag that no other character has? XD  

@Badumsquish  
It would be funny, but it doesn’t seem worth it to confuse the system just for a gag.

Which one is actually correct? Da magics or De magicks?

@Markiz93  
The latter I think.

Question: What does woobie mean and why is there a tag for it?

@DR35  
From TV Tropes, The Woobie: A “woobie” is a name for any type of character who makes you feel extremely sorry for them. Basically, the first thing you think to say when you see the woobie is: “Aw, poor baby!”
 
No idea if having a tag for that is a good idea or not.

It’s probably time to add the usual spoiler image to the season 9 spoiler tags.

Does this look legit? If it is, then we have a title for the Season 9 premiere.
 

What counts as an exploitable meme, as opposed to a regular meme?

It’s like a regular meme, but with blanks spots or transparent areas where anyone lacking the artistic talent to draw their own pictures can plug some random thing in and be inordinately proud of the sense of humor they do not in fact possess.

I think I may have noticed an issue with the full nelson tag. Specifically that at rough count, only around 20 images in that tag are actually a full nelson. My limited research shows that a full nelson involves hooking under an opponent’s arms to immobilize them, not their legs, most of these look like they’re just miss tagged instances of reverse suspended congress.
 
So what’s to be done? Does the tag just need a lot of clean up? Since this mistake happens so often would it make more sense to just merge it into reverse suspended congress and perhaps move the few actual examples to a new tag, full nelson (hold) maybe? Or am I wrong about the whole situation perhaps?

@Background Pony #A2C5  
For what it’s worth, the tag is used the same way on every other booru I’m aware of.

The cutie mark tag is being used on various images where ponies have cutie marks, which just seems excessive to me.

@Litrojia  
Yeah, that seems a bit much.  
Unless the Cutie Mark is a large focus of the image, I don’t think the tag is necessary.
 
Will need to think of a good wording to add as a description for that.

@Zeb  
Would it make sense to unalias the cmc’s cutie marks from cutie mark, or is there a better tag that can be used to separate cutie marked crusaders from their non (official) cutie marked versions (including fan cms)?  
Eg. Split  
Fan mark:

None:  

 
from official marks:  

 
without “polluting” the cutie mark tag?

@Dogman15  

 
Boooo…
 
All my favourite sites are slowly becoming incompatible with IE11…and I can’t upgrade to Edge (it in turn is not compatible with Windows 7).
 
…Google Chrome it is then. xD

I’m pretty sure this discussion has come up before, but ”dirty anus” should really imply “scat”.

@Deserter  
That tag was specifically made so it didn’t imply scat as it’s a very minor form of it and was made specifically for the reason to not have those images tagged as scat if the only part of it that exists is said dirty anus. There’s a story behind it in the comments of an image.
