...Older_male, for example, doesn't indicate a particular age. It only indicates relative age to another character (which can be in the same age range, e.g. an older adult male with a visibly younger but still adult female, or a teenage male with an older but still teenage male), so it doesn't seem to me like it should be in the same "Age" category along side young or child, that specify an absolute age range. Absolute age and relative age tags serve different functions, and people get confused with them already (~younger_male ~younger_female ~older_male ~older_female solo has 8 pages of results, currently), so putting them together in the same Age category would add to the confusion and cause more mistags, IMO.
This is user error. To alleviate this, there could be some one-time warnings when users try to tag unlikely combinations (like any relative age tag + solo), it would take the form of a modal popup confirmation prompt that explains what a relative age tag is with a visual diagram and contains something along the lines of:
"You may be looking to use young_male instead of younger_male, as the latter only refers to the character being younger than a partner also shown in the post."
Requested feature overview description.
Modal popup when attempting to submit an edit/upload with likely contradictory tags.
Why would it be useful?
1. This would reduce the number of mistagged posts.
2. It would educate all users that misunderstand the meaning of various tags.
What part(s) of the site page(s) are affected?
This would show up in the upload and edit pages as short check by a bit of JS embedded in the page, and is only visible when the submitted tags match a filter of likely conflicting tags.
Note: "modal" means that a given menu will block interaction with any menus behind it. (you can search "modal menu" to see examples, or press Ctrl+P or Ctrl+J to see your browser bring up a modal.)
