Topic: Tail tags bulk update

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #3951 is pending approval.

create implication tail_through_skirt (5143) -> tail (1248792)
create implication tail_over_skirt (633) -> tail (1248792)
create implication tail_anus (9759) -> tail (1248792)
create implication messy_tail (206) -> tail (1248792)
create implication tail_feathers (17736) -> tail (1248792)
create implication grey_tail (13991) -> tail (1248792)
create implication cleft_tail (2499) -> tail (1248792)

Reason: All these tags mention tails.

<animal species>_tail

are somewhat controversial, and rarely used right. They're supposed to be used for humanoids (otherwise human, with that kind of animal tail), and there have been discussions about how certain tails are indiscernible if you can't see what they're attached to (where it's then just <animal species>+tail). Or how a single species can have very different looking tails (e.g. cat tails range from short to long, thin to floofy). They may be better aliased.

Cattail is also the name of a plant. That may be better disambiguated.

I'm not sure about tail_under_skirt, it seems like it could be used in situations where you can tail there's a tail underneath but can't see it.

two_tone_tail should probably implicate multicolored_tail instead (which already implicates tail).

Done, except for two_tone_tail, which already has an implication pending: implication #11759
