Topic: What's the line between tagging minotaur and cow / anthro

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

Essentially the title is my whole question, as if you go threw the minotaur tag, you'll see creatures that look like very sort of humanoid leaning anthros, with the only difference being the face, tail, and body color.

i.e.

Where in my mind Minotaurs have these elongated torsos, legitmate cow heads, and wide shoulders.

i.e.

So I guess my question comes down to is to should there be a a line drawn in the sand? And if so how should it be marked up? And if we shouldn't draw a line should we just alias one tag away?

My understanding is that a minotaur is a half-human half-cow/bull hybrid. A cow/bull is the four legged animal itself. And any anthro variation of a cow/bull that isn't half-human gets tagged as anthro.

That's a good point, which kind of aids to what I'm getting at with how the tag is full of content that simply doesn't look like minotaurs but anthromorphic cows.
