That's all good. But it's still a huge project and help is appreciated.


Just finished cleaning up the mutual masturbation tag, everything there should now actually have mutual masturbation in it... as of 10/25/2011 anyway...

Yeah, I'd be willing to help with that if time permits. I'll just make a list of the primary colours for easier navigating. Feel free to add.

Just to clarify, this does not mean removing the tag and moving on, it means changing the colour tag to what is that colour in the image. red_markings, red_background, blue_hat, green_fur etc.

blue | red | green | yellow | purple | brown | black | white | orange

You forgot pink and grey


After sticking a thousand or so solo tags on, I got tired, and then I got busy, and now I have no motivation to go back to it. It's someone else's turn.

Dunno if this is a bug or feature:
Before I post a pic, I always do a search to see if l'artiste already exists.
That's because some artists have multiple names, or names that can be spelled in different ways.
And I don't want to create a new artist tag for someone who already exists on e621.

Problem:
If an artist is inactive, I won't find him under "artist", only under "tags". Even if the tag type is "artist".

Artists are only found in the artist listing if someone makes an artist page for them. You're better off doing a tag search.

The "active/inactive" feature is an inheritance of the gelbooru engine and has no defined use as of now, so it shouldn't be used at all.

So what should we set all artists to?
Active or inactive?

The default is active (the desired setting), but I think it should be removed completely.


I'd like to see a project started on cleaning up the 'overweight' tag group. I did a search yesterday for 'Chubby' and got a lot of posts that were morbidly obese, because someone had tagged them with ALL the overweight tags rather than just 'morbidly_obese'.

Bottom line, search for stuff like "chubby morbidly_obese" and fix the tags so only the one that matches the subject's weight is there.

From the wiki:

There's a scale of overweight-related tags:

1. chubby (plump)
2. fat (obviously overweight, but not drastically so)
3. obese (pot bellies, thighs like hams, etc.)
4. morbidly_obese (truly huge - barely or not at all capable of walking)

4. morbidly_obese (truly huge - barely or not at all capable of walking)

I thought the way this worked was that all obese pictures are also fat, but not all fat pictures are also obese. Thus, everything morbidly_obese is also chubby, and searches should specify the weight range they want. For instance 'Chubby -fat' would get only chubby pictures, while 'chubby -morbidly_obese' would get the range of chubby, fat, and obese, but cut off the most extreme examples.


I have a few Ideas.

Age tags could use some cleaning up.
Old tag can be left as is, young for anything underage, child for everything underage minus teens and tweens (child would imply young tag), and infantilism for everything near the lowest ages of the underage scale (infantilism would imply child and young tags). Adult and teenager tags could be gotten rid of since they are hardly used. If you just wanted to find teens/tweens you could blacklist child, and if you just wanted adults you could blacklist young. baby tag could be aliased to infantilism. shota, loli, and cub tags could be changed to child, since shota and loli tags just specify gender and we already have gender tags so they aren't really needed. Tag is child and not cub because you wouldn't call a young human a cub :|

All tags containing cock/dick/etc could be changed to penis for consistency and simplification.

facial/facial_cumshot could alias to cum_on_face, since they are essentially the same thing.

Also, about the fat thing
we have the weight scale thing, and the overweight tag could be used as a general overweight tag. We could have the chubby, fat, obese, and morbidly_obese tags implicate the overweight tag. So if you wanted chubby-fat you could search overweight with obese and morbidly_obese blacklisted. Or we could get rid of the overweight tag and use the range thing in a similar manner to what 31h53 said and what I suggested we do with the underage tags, and that way you would only have to blacklist one tag.

On a different subject, I think we need to clean up the video_games tag. Is that for characters playing video games, or is it for characters from video games? At the moment it's being used for both.

I would personally prefer that it be used for characters playing video games, because that seems like a more useful thing to tag than "hey, this post contains a character from some video game or another".

I know what it means, I just couldn't think of a tag that would fuse that and baby, because really, they look the same. I also agree with what you said about the video_games tag.

about the clearing up the colour tags, what would you do with this?

Tag it with monochrome for being monochromatic?


Can we have a 'comic frontpage' or 'comic first page' tag or something so that we can browse the various comics on esix easily (only seeing the first pages as opposed to every page on the 'comic' tag)? I guess there's pools but not all comics are in them and I find them kind of clumsy anyway - plus they don't have thumbnails. I mean this way we'd have a choice, so, win-win right?

On that note, would it be a 'tag what you see' policy violation if we used the tags on comic frontpages to notify what's in the comic (even if it's not on the front?), general themes like gay, bi, straight, bondage, or whatnot.

I agree, I think this would be a good idea.

If you see that they're not in a pool, then why not add them to one?

I'm not saying that this is a bad idea, but that's, really, what pools are for.

And what do you mean they're clumsy? If anything, they're more organized.

We'd need to de-implicate all the video game copyrights that are predicated to video_games as well,if that's case


We already have the 'gamer' tag for characters playing video games.


Quick plan: let's bring tagme back down to zero. 9 pages x 150 per page (for me at least) = 1350 posts. Let's go!


What if we were to write a hack to make "tagme" automatically disappear from a post when it has at least six other tags?


I wouldn't worry about it, as long as we keep it at zero. I'm going to annihilate that tag tomorrow.


I hope you guys are actually adding tags when you are removing these tagmes.

Well of course, if it has less than 15 tags it's a sin


The wiki on mammals looks like it needs quite a bit of revising/ visual fixing

Can't make heads or tails of the layout in comparison to the original wikipedia page.

Anyone with an above-average knowledge of mammal classification & grouping is welcome to take a look at it and say what they think could be done

blue | red | green | yellow | purple | brown | black | white | orange

Might be a bit old but I think that these could be aliased to invalid_color so fixing them would be easier
