There's an "Edit" button on your post... You can use that to add more related implications (ie, the collection of "Plant" implications) as well (Generally avoid putting the extras in the initial post, though)

It's not necessary, but it does save time typing in multiple implication suggestions.

this is pretty pedantic

I mean, for completeness, I'd say that it's not really, but like tuvalu was probably trying to say (excuse me if it seems like I'm trying to put words in their mouth), grass is not a plant.

Overall, -1 for me

The "plant" tag theoretically is useful if I want (or not) to see vegetation. But if the types of vegetation does not imply in this tag, it would become less and less useful.

Grass, trees, cacti, flowers, moss, lilypads and shrubs clearly are plants (but about seaweed is more complicated).

Go for it.

Implicating nature -> plant might also work. It's not really taggable if there's no plants.

A quick search yielded results like beaches and other landscapes which may not always have plants. Perhaps it's true by wiki definition, and other tags such as `beach` and `landscape` can cover those exceptions, but for now it's gonna be a no-go on that one.

`vegetation` -> `plant` alias is green

When I started tagging, was caught off guard by the fact of 'nature' only be used to environments with vegetation. Initially I thought it really referred to natural environments (including but not limited to: coral reefs, sandy deserts, mountains, ocean bed, canyons, caves, frozen plains etc.). I admit that hadn't the habit of reading wikis yet, but this doesn't change the fact of this tag be a bit misleading,

In my opinion, if you're discussing aliases and implications, it's good to not read the wiki.

Think like a clueless tagger. How would somebody with no idea about e621's wiki tag a given image?

There's no vote button for me. A similar issue happened to @faucet and @Watsit in a different topic.

I voted on that prior topic, but there's no button here for me either.
