I’m looking at ‘Payday 2’ tags at the moment and seeing a lot of inconsistency around character names. Some aren’t tagged at all, [dallas] shares its tag with the location (see update), wolf (payday)
existed for a single image (2 with my help) and who knows how many are in the wolf
tag, sangres
is a 1 image tag, there’s a sydney (payday 2)
tag, and I added one [bulldozer] to that tag (since there are only 13 of the vehicle there) (actually there was already bulldozer (payday)
, exemplifying the confusion this inconsistency causes).
Aside from all the ignored suggestions I’ve made about search terms and tag prefixes (character:
), I’d like to know what the modus operandi is for brackets. I think it sands to reason to separate a character named “wolf” from the species, but do you separate all the characters into wolf (character)
or name them by their series, like above. By that logic, should Dallas (eg.) images be renamed to dallas (character)
or dallas (payday)
, and should sangres
be given a bracket despite having no alternative images for the sake of consistency/clarity? What about the (payday 2)
suffix? (I think the series is enough)
Update: After changing like 7 “dallas” tags to “(payday)”, I realised there were less of the location than I thought, and the tag is too small after splitting them, so I reverted my changes to that tag. I did start retagging chains (payday)
and wolf (payday)
though, due to the sizes of the shared tags.
Update 2: I’m starting to realise that things can be searched for with multiple terms (dallas + payday), so what is the purpose of any quantifier? I suppose they exist to keep non-quantifiable tags clean (like the object ‘chains’)… I need more clarification, though.
