Topic: About Glamrock Bonnie tag

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

Now that we officially have a Glamrock Bonnie, I noticed someone made a tag called "glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf_ruin)" because "glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf)" was already a thing due to fanmade designs.

Should we change it so the new pics of Glamrock Bonnie are just "glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf)" while the older images of fan designs can change to something like "glamrock_bonnie_(fanmade)"?

Or even just ditch that new one and have all of them just be "glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf)"?

Images with the official model should definitely be tagged with glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf). Why use tags for specific games when they are part of the fnaf franchise? We don’t use tags like toy_freddy_(fnaf_2) or nightmare_bonnie_(fnaf_4)

As for the fanmade models: After seeing the anbundance of fanmade glamrock bonnie models within the fnaf fandom, it’ll make more sense for those to fall under a different tag.

Something like glamrock_bonnie_(fanmade) could work.

So how should it be done? If we alias glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf) -> glamrock_bonnie_(fanmade) then we won't be able to put the tags on the new ones without it automatically aliasing.

Should it just be done manually then?

*Edit: Oh I think I get it. There's the update thing. So I can update the normal tag for glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf) -> glamrock_bonnie_(fanmade) and then just repopulate the "glamrock_bonnie_(fnaf)" tag to the new posts, right? Waiting for confirmation before doing anything.

Yes. A mass update will be a good solution to this. Go for it 👍

no that's not how this works. It all goes under Glamrock_Bonnie_(fnaf)
It's not neccessary to make an entirely new tag just because some fanmade renditions of a design were made that collides with the canonical look.

Put it all in one basket and tag the fanmade versions with alternate_form

Actually, yes. Glamrock_Bonnie_(fnaf) should be for the official Glamrock Bonnie that you see in the games, not fanmade designs that look different. Alternate_form is for when a character is depicted as a different form (in the anthro/feral/humanoid/taur sense). Just like how link_(wolf_form) is used only for the official "wolf form" look of Link, not any old image of Link as a wolf (e.g. post #4197385 is tagged link+alternate_species+wolf, not link_(wolf_form) despite being Link as a wolf, because it is a notably different design).

If it's recognizably the character, it gets the tag, right? Even if it's not exactly the same model. That's what on_model is for. Your example still got tagged link, after all.
