Topic: [APPROVED] Tag implication: finger_ring -> digit_ring

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag implication #50479 finger_ring -> digit_ring has been approved.

Reason: These two would have the same meaning and be aliased... if not for the existence of toe_ring, which already implies digit_ring.
This makes digit_ring an umbrella term for finger_ring and toe_ring and therefore should act as such.

Additionally, wedding_ring and engagement_ring should probably switch to implicate finger_ring rather than digit_ring with this change.

EDIT: The tag implication finger_ring -> digit_ring (forum #362170) has been approved by @slyroon.

Updated by auto moderator

The bulk update request #4497 is pending approval.

create implication digit_ring (10971) -> ring (30153)
remove implication wedding_ring (3665) -> digit_ring (10971)
remove implication engagement_ring (183) -> digit_ring (10971)

Reason: Digit rings are rings, also step 1 of implying wedding_ring and engagement_ring to finger_ring
The ring tags are all a mess but I don't have a lot of time to fix the whole thing right now :P but I hope this small BUR helps.

Have you considered the possibility that those rings could be worn on the toes instead of the fingers, such as the case of feral characters?

This is probably also the right time to decide if ring (jewelry) deserves to exist.
I mean if digit_ring exists, what's the point of it? Digit ring directly refers to the wearable ring.

Should ring (jewelry) be aliased to digit_ring?

Have you considered that not all rings are worn on the digits? There are horn rings, tail rings, etc.

Clearly not, hence why I'm consulting others while on a related topic rather than going ahead and creating a request like my OP topic. Thanks for the input tho, these edge cases should probably be referenced on the related tag's wiki pages.
