General Tag Discussion

Oh, thank you. Or, how saying in our motherland: “Благодарствую”.

@Deserter
Then why not use solo, female, (suggestive OR questionable OR explicit) as I mentioned in first post?

Sorry, for some reason I did not see or get notification.

>>2642300 This too, also add “human shoulders” and “hooves behind back”

found another one: artist:robertwilliams2006

Is there a difference in purpose between the tags autism and autism spectrum disorder?

@Background Pony #52BA
Looks like autism is the main tag, used for when the image has the word “Autism” in it. And the other tag seems to have been almost entirely created and added to images by one person in 1 day, 3 years ago.

So I’m guessing autism spectrum disorder -> autism is the right thing to do. So I did.

@Ciaran
It appears as though the tag has been used in a derogatory manner much too often. Someone will have to clean that up…

@Background Pony #DD84
If you’re talking about “autism”, well, duh. It has been in the insults-zeitgeist for quite a while. The first page of results look pretty clean to me at the moment, though.

If you mean autism spectrum disorder, it didn’t look like it was being used derogatorily, though that user did apply it to images of OCs which had been described in other posts as autistic - eg. mentioned in the description of >>2565576, thus tagged on >>2545008 and others - so the validity of having that tag on images where it’s not brought up is questionable. (That user also tagged asperger’s syndrome in much the same way.)

That one also needs to get →‘d to autism; nobody still references the eugenics fanboy doctor it’s named after these days unless they’re being an ass about it.

@TexasUberAlles
Actually assuming that what people call themselves is problematic is wildly more offensive than just a term existing.

Let’s just fix the tags, with as little drama as possible.

@LightningBolt
If you have an idea what needs to be done, if anything, let me know and I’ll do it. Even if it requires looking at each image to sort it out. Feel free to PM me if you’d like.

That way when some people insist on being jerks about it, they can be a jerk to me.

@Ciaran
I think the tag is fine to leave as is, just punishing people who use it derogatorily as always.

@LightningBolt
Sounds good ^_^

Should light blue background imply blue background? I think it should.
