Topic: Tag Alias: stimulation -> invalid_tag

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

I think we should avoid adding new invalid_tag aliases when we can help it. Invalid tags are frustrating to deal with.

There are less than 200 total posts between concept and stimulation. They can be cleaned out manually. A lot of the concept posts appear to be model_sheets and some of the stimulation posts fall under overstimulation.

EDIT: concept has been cleaned. Some of it was character sheets, some was WIPs and some was concept art (see forum #248149).

They're less frustrating than tags that are invalid but people keep taging anyway. :)

I'm working through the stimulation posts now (EDIT: done). This tag could probably be invalidated after all, since it's so vague and so broadly misused. I'm seeing it applied to everything from electrostimulation to penis_milking, so there's no way a disambiguation page could help.

But I think concept could be salvaged with a disambiguation. It could reasonably mean concept_art or model_sheet, or possibly even sketch.

Yeah, that's what I was noticing when I found the tag. Stimulation is both really vague and sounds enough like a real tag that it'll probably keep getting tagged which is why I suggested invalidating it. Turning concept into a disambiguation seems like a good idea.

Bump, this is extremely vague, I understand wanting to limit invalid_tag aliases but this really isn't useful or disambiguate-able

Could also just move it to the invalid category I guess, if that's preferred

I think invalid category is best. A good chunk of this stuff probably isn't tagged with what type of stimulation is going on in the image, so would be better manually cleaned.

I can think of several things this could mean.

  • foot_play
  • masturbation
  • tickling

To name a few. I agree that should be disambiguate.
