Implicating holding_character → carrying
Link to implication

Reason:

As seen in carrying , holding_character also applies this. But, holding_character doesn't imply this yet.

So holding someone means you are carrying them, right?

EDIT: The tag implication holding_character -> carrying (forum #195348) has been rejected by @Millcore.

minor bump, but stand and carry position kinda also needs carrying

If you're holding someone up, it's certainly not mandatory that you are carrying them. You may be dangling or cradling them, or they may be simply lifted.

The tag is clearly misused a whole lot since currently post #908644 is the latest upload to use it, and it's hardly appropriate to say that someone who's siting down is "carrying" someone else!

I wrote it wrong, carrying should imply holding person, while fixing those tags that night, I wrote them in reverse to fix holding_(disambiguation) first, by changing it to holding_person.

So that's a fail for me.

However, I could call that carrying since their weight is being lifted by another person, being propped up against the wall or etc still means they are (mostly) off of a surface. But that image is wrong, during my early tagging I didn't know about chair position . If you can find the rest and apply all the tags I couldn't imagine, then do so, since I didn't know that positions could replace certain carrying tags until recently.

It should not. Like all 'holding'-tags, holding_character is specifically for posts where a character is being held in someone's hand (or hands).

Vast majority of carrying don't belong under that tag.

so holding_character implies size_difference?

Usually.
Unless someone's got hyper hands, I suppose.

And then there's characters such as Master Hand:
