Implicating open_smile → open_mouth
Link to implication

Reason:

-1. open_mouth is too general to represent open_smile, unless "open_mouth smile solo" is tagged.

i dont understand? open smiles always include open mouth. there should not be any issues with this implicatiob

Uh, this is an implication, not an alias.

I think the issue is that an implication would mean that "open_mouth" has to also imply that every character with an open mouth is also smiling. The implication works vice versa, like an = equation.

An alias, however, can give another tag to one without making it vice versa. So making "open_mouth" an alias of "open_smile" will not imply that all open mouths are smiling.

but we are implying open smile TO open mouth. which means that every image with tag open smile gets tag open mouth, not other way around? im sorry, im just confused because i fail to see any issues here

also alias is used to replace tag with another. we cant replace open smile with open mouth or open mouth woth open smile.

Sorry, I read it as alias.

Whoops, I got it backwards. >.>

This implication (which I support, FWIW) is still unresolved, after straightening out the alias/implication confusion.

Please allow us to take the time for certain aliases/implications. The admins that are better at this (parasprite/furrypickle) are often busy on other things, and I have yet to grasp the full knowledge on this.

I am currently digging up and resolving older aliases/implications, as well as quick and simple ones, so I will eventually go over them.

Also, I'd rather leave long discussions to admins with more experience (not out of laziness, but to prevent damage to the site from a less-experienced admin).
It also helps if you guys give your (concise) opinion on pending changes and ideas.

Anyway, approved.
