Topic: [REJECTED] Tag alias: catgirl -> cat_humanoid

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag alias #57876 catgirl -> cat_humanoid has been rejected.

Reason: "Catgirl" is just the less technical term for female cat_humanoid

Reject this alias, should be catgirl -> feline based on feedback
  • This alias could cause anthro characters to be automatically tagged as cat_humanoid
  • Aliasing catgirl to female could cause an intersex character to be tagged incorrectly
  • "Catgirl" is only going to be added to feline characters, this is the best way to alias it away without causing mistags.

EDIT: The tag alias catgirl -> cat_humanoid (forum #338875) has been rejected by @bitWolfy.

It might be better to alias it to female in case someone uses it to tag anthros.

I'd think it more likely people use it for other genders than anthros.

People do have an annoying habit of using humanoid terms and tags for anthros, which has caused no end to problems with anthros being tagged humanoid. It should be aliased to either female or feline, but definitely not cat_humanoid.

I wish I used a BUR for this, then I could edit it or reject it myself.

Aliasing catgirl to feline seems like the best way to do it, someone trying to tag catgirl will almost always be trying to describe a feline character, aliasing it to female might cause a gynomorph catgirl to be mistagged as female.
