Topic: i'm keeping seeing tags that aren't edit

Posted under Off Topic

I keep seeing on the posts on e621

I always go and edit on posts , but the one who never put the correct tags; they just leave it there like for a example:

*Tags
artist
*someone
species
*dog
*canine

They have forgot to put "mammal" on the tag

so if you put any tags ; put it correcting :)) that your help

Wait, so you're not seeing the mammal tag on any posts? Tags like dog and canine are supposed to imply mammal, meaning it should be added automatically. Something is wrong with the implication system, I think.

Yeah, if you search dog -mammal there shouldn't be any results.
Sadly, there are.

Dog implies canine, canine implies mammal.
Perhaps a problem with stacked implications?

Same with bat implying mammal. It should, but it doesn't.

There are plenty.
The mammal tag is added automatically whenever the image is edited, but a lot of them remain unedited.

I've been working on it for a couple of months. If you want to help, here's one suggestion: canine -mammal -solo -duo -group. All of those are missing the character count tags..

The way an implication works is that it starts adding the tag after the implication is made and the implicating tag added. It does not actively change things tagged before the implication was made like an alias does

I wonder how many tag implications would go through if we refreshed the database. o.o
