e621 has a "tag type" for Artists, Species, General, Meta, Characters and now I want to request a new "tag type", Location \ Setting. There is a lot of tags for Location \ Setting in the General tag type already, and I think e621 could use them in better way then leaving them in General tag type. The Location \ Setting depicted by an artist plays a big role in animation or artwork, especially in lewd content, as it helps the artist fulfill their and/or other peoples fantasies.

To me, we should call the new tag type, Location \ Setting. It covers the most ground.

Examples

• office
• school
• ice cave
• butcher_shop
• slaughterhouse
• basement
• living room
• bedroom
• dungeon
• strip club
• grocery store
• convenience store
• courtroom

I don't see why this should warrant a new tag type. They function perfectly fine as general tags. The provided locations are also very generic, calling the usefulness even more into question. Real places are usually copyright tags, so those are already out of the general category. I don't see what moving these to a new category would do for anyone, besides be more complicated for no reason.

I feel that a new category for voice actors would be added first before your suggestion, tbh. Non-specific locations are already pretty well suited in the general category.

Also I find it interesting that you use backslashes instead of forward slashes.

The general tag is really the ideal place for generic objects and locations.
