Topic: Tag Implication: Train_position -> Sex

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

Approved.

Note: While there may be situations where it's just a group of people standing close together in a line, that should probably be tagged different anyways. train_position already has sex_train and mantrain aliased to it, both of which are sex-specific. And it is a *_position tag which is saved only for sex positions. So I think it's safe to say that anything which might occasionally be tagged with it (but isn't involving sex), is a mistag that belongs under a different tag.

conga_line could probably do it. Not very common though.

Not quite the same thing maybe, but it's worth mentioning that we also have waiting_line, waiting_in_line and queue. On that note, even though we normally preference american english on this site, I would personally prefer we go with queue if we were to pick one of those (which we probably should, because three tags for waiting in a line is ridiculous). Because queue is an actual word for it, when american english doesn't really have a word for it. It's for the same reason that us admins have a "moderation queue" because there's just no other word that so succinctly describes the concept of "a bunch of things/people waiting in a linear line to be processed in a specific order". The british were just more clever on this one and actually made it a word. Americans say "you know when you're waiting in line for something and..." which just doesn't work as well for a tag. lol But that's just my two cents.

Can confirm. British have always been pro at queuing. See: British people queuing during the London riots

I still think queue would do, even if its kind of a weird word.

Queue is one of those words we Americans look at and say, "That is a pretty word. I want to use that word."
