The tag alias #64198 humanoid_tail -> tailed_humanoid has been approved.

Reason: They have the same meaning.

EDIT: The tag alias humanoid_tail -> tailed_humanoid (forum #378962) has been approved by @slyroon.

tailed humanoid is any humanoid with a tail. Humanoid tail is anything with a "human like" tail.

There aren't any "human-like" tails because there aren't any human tails though (aside from the birth defects)? Unless the tag means that the tail is a humanoid itself.

I haven't really checked the tag, but I assume humanoid_tail would be intended to mean a humanoid with a tail.

That's pretty much it from what I've seen of it.

Many different types of tails, they're just on humanoids.

If you're interested in human vestigial tails, you should create a tag specifically for that. Look at the posts, most people won't catch the subtle difference between tailed_humanoid and humanoid_tail.

That selection is cherry picked. Most of the images look like the first two. smooth fleshy tails. I would consider the last three miss tagged

It was cherry picked in as far as it captured a wide range of different tails using the tag, to show it is largely used to mean "humanoid+tail" rather than "human-like tail". They're not unique examples.

I wouldn't consider the first to be a "human-like tail", as it looks nothing like the kind of tail a human can get. All the second has going for it is it's fur-less and the same color skin tone as their body; the shape actually looks more like what someone may use on a dragon or dinosaur, if it had a different color or texture. And given those first two, I can't see them both being "human-like" with how different they are. The second starting thick at the anus and lower back, tapering down to a nub at the end, with the first starting relatively thin at the lower back, up and away from the anus, and remaining roughly consistent thickness along its length, before ending in some kind of fin-looking structure (kinda reminds me of a shark). In actuality, neither resemble a "human-like tail", which a quick search will provide examples of (I don't think linking such images here is appropriate, since they involve underage people, mostly babies).

Fun fact though, while looking it up apparently humans can be born with two different types of tails, one being a "true tail" which is a result of the embryonic tail not disappearing during development like it should, and the other being a pseudo-tail which is "usually a symptom of an irregular coccyx or of spina bifida as opposed to a remnant of the embryonic tail from the womb".
