Topic: M- M- M- My Ryona (ryona disambiguation)

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #3282 is pending approval.

create alias ryona (1370) -> ryona_(disambiguation) (0)
change category ryona_(disambiguation) (0) -> invalid

Reason: Ryona is apparently a japanese term for a female character being "defeated". However, it can also be a name, and there's no telling how many of the 10 pages of results meant it as a name.

The tag seems to be primarily used for a female victim of some kind, ranging from extreme guro, rape, (impending) torture, unwilling vore, to simply losing a fight. Not only is it gender-specific, a tag for "bad thing happens to a female" seems a bit too basic. If such a tag is warranted, though, a better name should be used that more obviously indicates what it means, can have other gender and form (feral, anthro, etc) variants, and not be confused for a name.

If it's referring to a character, it can be made into a character tag. No need for disambiguation.

It's not completely. It's primarily referring to a "defeated female", but it can be a valid name (as I thought it was when I first saw the tag), and there may be some uses of it that meant it as a name not realizing it was for something else. There is also currently one other tag with the name (ryona_(senran_kagura)), so even if it was another character named Ryona, it would be ambiguous about who it referred to.

next time you should probably read a the full BUR reason (or honestly, the first sentence) rather than just downvoting because you have an unwarranted hateboner for another user and then also making a blip that gets you banned again, my dude.
also I can't imagine blacklisting a user just because you've disagreed with them on tagging discussions on the forum. like, what the hell.

Even though Ryona may be a name of a character, I still don't agree with disambiguation of the tag, as many other words are similar. (There are, for example, the apocalyptic Death, Plague, Famine and War from the Bible.) However, a more valid question I see in the usefullness of the tag. I personally appreciate this tag, but I see how it could be replaceable with the combination of defeated and submissive_female. (Maybe even defeated_heroine/defeated_villainess.)
