Topic: tag project: foule

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

Wandered across posts tagged with foule (GENERAL category tag) and i was confused.
Turns out all foule posts also tagged with artist tag fineceru.

https://www.furaffinity.net/user/fineceru/
says "fineceru" "aka Foule".

36 posts tagged with both (fineceru and foule)
5 posts tagged with fineceru withOUT foule tag.

35 of those posts posted by e621 username Fineceru. https://e621.net/users/1221629

***

SHORT VERSION of below:
artist seems to have switched over to Fineceru as artist name:

  • e621 username Fineceru
  • "Fineceru" on art for latest three months
  • FA username Fineceru

Fineceru has fursona named "Foule" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31100248/
(fursona apparently still named Foule: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/49246698/ "posted Oct 3, 2022" "My fursona Foule ...")

Because of other uses of "foule", suggest
1) tag of foule_(artist) alias to Fineceru
2) artist's fursona be tagged as foule_(Fineceru)

LONG VERSION below:

At e621: some of their art has artist name "Foule" on art, other art has "Fineceru" on art.

At their FA (main gallery): (from oldest to newest) (FA "Submissions: 249", so not going into TOO much detail)

  • oldest ("posted Apr 6, 2019") has "Foule" on art: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31092574/ (near front hoof)
  • then 8 uploads: some with no name, FOUR with "Foule" on them.
  • 2 with artist initials(?) that i think says "ADT"

(both "posted Apr 6, 2019": https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31092783/ and https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31092815/ )

*

Range of mostly "Foule" on art:

  • page 4: another 24
  • page 3: 48 uploads
  • page 2: 48 uploads
  • page 1: 31 uploads

(oldest in this range: ADULT-rating "Kiss me" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31092829/
newest in this range: ADULT-rating "Tender kiss" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/48792418/ "posted Aug 30, 2022".

SUMMARY of this range:

  • one by another artist (features character(s) of Fineceru/Foule)
  • most of them with "Foule" on art (approx 84% in this range)
  • some of them with "APT" on art (approx 10%)

My question to forum
should the extra artist tag be foule
OR foule_(artist)?????
(with foule_(artist) tag aliasing to fineceru)

Because technically "foule" is a word
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/foule
1) English "foule" is "Obsolete form of foul."
2) French "foule" is a crowd (and equivalent), "oppression, vexation", etc.
3) German "foule"
4) Norman "foule"

**

"foule" in use at FurAffinity (from earliest to latest):

1) (earliest) https://www.furaffinity.net/view/738430/ (only in filename "...for_foule_by_(artistname)"

2) then 11(or more) uploads with "foule" in French

3) https://www.furaffinity.net/view/13949689/ (8 years ago) "Full-color commission for Foule! His OC, Tator Tot"
(owner of Tator Tot is apparently https://www.furaffinity.net/user/kikasitsu/
(( FA kikasitsu upload of same art at https://www.furaffinity.net/view/14203530/ FA description "I commissioned Goat Train to grant me this wonderful image." "Tator Tot may be my first Pony OC,"))
((another artwork depicting Tator Tot: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/13780981/ ))

4) character "Amour Foule" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/27841800/ (description "... Amour Foule belongs to xx-pimpninja-xx ...)(FA xx-pimpninja-xx now error page)

5) title "Bowsette, I Foule Up Guys!" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/28804025/ (Not sure what this "foule" means. Possibly a typo.)

6) Fineceru has fursona named "Foule" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/36454833/
and https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/fineceru/folder/668529/Foule/
... so character tag would probably be foule_(fineceru).

(and at Wikipedia "Foule Mudammas" redirects to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ful_medames which is a "... a stew ...".)

Hope this makes sense.

Seems pretty straightforward:

If you want a second tag for the character then you'll have to create one, because the artist hasn't been tagging it.

The tag does not mean anything else on its own. Disambiguation is unnecessary.
