Firstly, the easy one
_________________________________________________________________
New tags:
Basically instead of all the genitalia implying animal_genitalia, they imply it through animal_penis/animal_pussy. Pretty straightforward.
Notes:
- Some stuff doesn't fit in either (genital_slit, cloaca, and possibly pseudopenis).
- Most wikis should be updated already

Tagging project:
Secondly, a mostly straightforward tagging project. Over the years people started using anatomically_correct in place of actual animal genitalia tags.
- anatomically_correct -animal_genitalia - Add proper genitalia to the things (see animal_genitalia for more info)
Notes:
- Teats don't count right now
- Animal head/etc. doesn't count right now
- Not all animals have a respective animal_genitalia tag. Feel free to add new ones but try to stick to broad families when possible (e.g., equine and not horse, canine and not wolf, etc.).
- Currently humanoid_penis should not be tagged as anatomically correct, on a human or not.

Anatomically_correct_* nuking
And the main point of this thread discussion. This is an odd one, but here are my current thoughts:
- It tends to be a dumping ground for not tagging animal_genitalia (more than animal_genitalia itself)
- The subtags are widely undertagged, and long enough to be a pain in the ass
- Most animal genitalia is found on the original species anyways. The only notable exception is equine penises, which is still ~90% equine.
- I don't see why anatomically_correct as is couldn't be the catchall tag to allow searching for stuff like "non-equines with equine genitalia" (-anatomically_correct -equine equine_penis) or similar.
- Nuking these tags would help prevent clutter in the sidebar
Notes:
- Early on it sometimes get tagged for ferals with less of a focus on genitalia (e.g., teats, horse head instead of anthro, etc.) but nowadays it's almost entirely used for genitalia.
- anatomically_correct_anus doesn't have an animal_anus equivalent to fall back on (puffy_anus is really the closest I've seen, and not only is it undertagged but it isn't exclusive to equine anuses). On the other hand, most animal anuses are kind of hard for most people to identify.
