I don't believe there's anything that would be mistagged by doing this. Currently it's very hard to filter out fatal vore and I think this would help.

There are a few instances I've seen where the prey gets reformed after digestion or gets regurgitated alive. The 'digestion' tag is kind of a mess and left more-or-less undefined on the wiki. It currently includes a lot of images where a character just has a belly bulge which doesn't imply fatal vore. Clean up and a proper definition should be made before tying it to other tags.

Besides that I don't think I've seen a tag implication involving a combination of tags.

Um what if it is soft vore?

Soft vore doesn't have digestion. Because digestion maims and kills you.

Or tag it hard_vore.

blanket tagging that could cause mistagging because digestion does not always necessarily lead to character death. for example comic where character gets eaten and the digestion starts (like patches of fur dissolves) but then they escape from stomach (like the predator throws up or something else)

But they're still in a situation where they could die, no?

When a character is in a situation where they will most likely die.

I'm a little unclear on what you're trying to say, but soft vore and non-fatal are not the same. No character should be in any danger in soft vore.

its not imminent death anymore when its explicitly shown that the character is safe and is not gonna die.

Thats not actually true, though. Soft vore just means the prey is ingested in one piece. Hard vore means the prey was torn to pieces before ingesting. There are several fatal soft vore pictures.

Can someone change the category to "tag project" then?

The wiki says "not injured upon consumption". Where you draw the line on when consumption ends is debatable, but I'm willing to bet those searching specifically for soft vore (as opposed to just vore) want something softer than ordinary.

the keyword is "consumption". In soft vore, the predator does not harm the prey while consuming it, but consumption ends before digestion begins

Additionally, you are trying to make a distinction between "vore" and "soft vore" but one is a subcategory of the other. All vore is either hard or soft, there are no other options.

It's not well tagged here at all but safe_vore is the term I've seen used for, well, safe vore. Digestion and soft vore is a bit of a debate, but by and large I see a lot of fatal vore referred to as soft. The style of swallowing (whole and alive vs cut/ripped/chewed up) is largely agreed to be the distinction.

Edit: Endosomatophilia is another term I've seen used as well as simply distinguishing fatal/non-fatal.

But it was aliased to soft vore. So which is it?

Aliases can be undone and changed. Endo/safe vore are both relatively obscure compared to digestion. Here's an interesting thread on eka's portal discussing endo vs fatal vore: https://aryion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=50518&sid=13f5fe0a4ee45d79a2041655b7f874fc Also notice how many people discuss enjoying non-fatal digestion variants including reformation, 'full tour' without dissolving, and dissolving and reforming in another part of the body.

Neat read. By the way, their definition of "safe vore" is "no violence, no sex" which isn't what I'm looking for. Also, there's another spelling, endosomataphilia, that has like 12 images. I wish the vore tags were more useful.
