Topic: Lick and Licking

Okay.. so I found this mess when I was looking for a face licking tag (obviously)...

face_lick has 161 posts - has a wikipage, but no implications or aliases.
licking_face has 55 posts - has no wiki, yet implies licking

Both tags appear to be supported in some respect (one with a wiki page and more posts, one with an implication). This trend is repeated in many places across the wide world of body-licking. There's some obvious preference towards *_lick, but there's still a huge *_licking presence.

Clearly, we should alias the _licking tags over to their _lick counterparts.

Of course, it's not THAT simple... (it never is, with me, is it?)... since we're going through nearly 50 different tags and looking for wiki pages, alias/implication support and so forth... I decided that tables were the answer.

I'm sorry.

What do the table headings mean, anyway?
  • Post count is included to see the 'weight' of each tag, though, as stated, _lick seems the dominant tag.
  • Wiki means "does it have a wiki page?"
  • Aliases and Implications each wonder if these things have preexisting aliases and implications, suggesting prior admin support.
  • Licking Implied is simple. Does the tag imply licking? Because it should.

I'm basically gonna separate everything out by rough body location and go through what the Handy Dandy Table has told me. Considering the ... girth of this post, I'll be trying to give everything numeric labels (1a, 3b, 27q, etc)

If you're going to reply to something (please do!), kindly reference the section numbers for ease. Thank you <3

And... basically.. I'm looking at redundant tags (ie, Licking_rabbits and rabbit_lick) and missing implications. (rabbit_lick should imply licking and rabbit, after all).

There are many aliases that should be installed (ie.. licking_rabbits, licking_rabbit, licking_bunny, bunny_licking, rabbit_licking all aliasing to bunny_lick...) but I don't have the energy to get all of them right now. I don't have that much energy. You're welcome to point out any.

I welcome your feedback.

knot_lick135YYYY
sheath_lick34____
bulge_lick9____

Basically, pretty good.

There are some inconsistencies:

1a. By wiki, penis_lick is other-only, and recommends autofellatio for licking one's own penis. However, auto_penis_lick claims to be for that purpose. Since licking and fellatio are somewhat different, the wiki for penis_lick should probably be changed.
1b. Should penis_lick imply fellatio? Should auto_penis_lick imply autofellatio? While I recognize the visual distinction between the two, it seems like those interested in fellatio would want to see penis licking.
1c. Of note, auto_penis_lick does not imply penis_lick. I'll assume this as a standard, for the time being.
1d. Should Bulge_lick imply oral?

Work needed. Don't cock it up.

penetration_lick43____

licking_butt31____
licking_anus7Y___
taint_lick6____
cloacal_lick5____

Lots of missing stuff (aliases, wiki, etc) here. Euugh.

2a. Licking_butt and butt_lick are redundant. They mostly cover licking butt cheeks, however, some are anus licking/rimming.
2b. (or not 2b?) Maybe this should be clarified to something like Butt_cheek_lick?
2c. Licking_anus is being defined as licking, but not inserting the tongue into the anus. With 7 posts, I advocate aliasing it away to Rimming
2d. Taint_lick, while a unique tag, is rather under tagged. taint is alised to perineum, so perhaps taint_lick should alias to perineum_lick?
2e. Cloacal_lick's been used for like, 5 pictures. It should probably go away. Or be tagged more.

Generic Implications. Maybe an Alias or two, but those are pricey.

Alias:

Implications:

If we keep taint and cloacal licking, they should imply perineum, cloaca, licking, etc etc.

3. Tits, Tummies, and Torsos.

belly_lick35Y___
licking_stomach10Y___
licking_navel27Y___

Oof. This one's very... redundant.

3a. Licking_chest and chest_lick seem to both refer to the act of licking a chest that lacks breasts. As such, alias to chest_lick.
3b. Should nipple_lick imply breast_lick?
3c. Self_breast_lick is a good tag--but should it be auto_breast_lick? And, should it imply breast_lick?
3d. belly_lick and licking_stomach are effectively identical. As such, alias to Belly_lick, or Stomach_lick
3e. licking_navel may be an unnecessarily specific branch of belly licking? Though most of the pictures seem to actually focus very specifically on navel licking/fetishism, so it's probably serving a purpose. That said--it's licking, not lick.. so it shold be aliased to Navel_lick!

Try to keep Abreast of any necessary changes.

Aliases:

Licking_stomach -> belly_lick
belly_licking -> belly_lick
licking_navel -> Naval_lick

Implications?:

Self/Auto Breast Lick implies breast
Self/Auto Breast Lick implies breast_lick OR Licking

and to be totally honest, I just accidentally deleted the other half of my table while trying to save my post from an inmpending computer crash... Way to fucking go. So... I'm gonna go ahead and just post this shit now, lay on the ground and contemplate my life choices. I'll recreate my prior data later (sigh) after I have a few days to mourn it's loss.

Just, like.... have at it. Like I said, there is totally stuff I missed. I just.. Ugh.
