Topic: Distinguishing between sharp_teeth and fangs in wiki.

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

I know that in the thread forum #145971, the distinction between fangs and sharp_teeth was that fangs were just one or two teeth that stuck out compared to the rest of the teeth in the mouth, while sharp_teeth would be a whole row of pointy teeth in the mouth that were roughly the same length. Shouldn't this be specified in the wiki entries for both? The current entry for fangs doesn't really specify that difference and as a result a lot of images are tagged with one when they should be tagged with the other/both.

Also, if "fangs" referred to sharp teeth that stuck out slightly more than others, would it apply to images such as post #1325565?

Proubly wasnt noted because people assumed it would be obvious with people commonly associating it with the long dagger like teeth extending out of the mouths of venomous snakes or the saberteeth of sabertooth tigers but then again cute_fangs is specific in that regard so the parent tag should carry the same basic definition.

Regarding implicating to sharp_teeth, cute_fangs would pose a problem to that sence they most certainly arnt always sharp, Length does not equal to sharpness.
