Topic: Alcohol related BUR

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #3319 is pending approval.

create alias alcoholic_drink (10) -> alcohol (29438)
create implication alcohol_enema (93) -> alcohol (29438)
create alias alcohol-free_beer (3) -> beer (7881)
change category alcoholic (46) -> invalid

Reason: In art, alcoholic_drinks typically aren't visually distinguishable from non-alcoholic drinks. Either they should be tagged as alcohol or just left as a vague beverage, but either way the tag is redundant.

Can't have an alcohol_enema without alcohol present.

Alcohol-free_beer is only used 3 times, but I figured it couldn't hurt to future poof it. The alcohol content of a typically alcoholic beverage such as beer or wine isn't something you could determine in an artwork, besides maybe a label saying as such, but even then I don't think it's necessarily important enough to warrant the distinction from other beers or wines.

Alcoholic really probably shouldn't be a tag, since it would in most cases break TWYS. For all anyone knows, even if a character was drinking in a particular image, they could be a raging alcoholic who drinks a shitton everyday, or they could only drink rarely on special occasions, whatever those occasions may be. Not something that really falls under TWYS imo.

Also, some other recent alcohol discussion happening in this thread as well: https://e621.net/forum_topics/35376

alcoholic_drink has been used a few hundred times now, doesn't have a wiki, and the wiki for alcohol specifically says "alcoholic beverage". So, bumping this.
Also, around a hundred of the posts tagged alcholic_drink aren't tagged as alcohol, which probably means there are people being confused by this.
