About the hand_on_* tags

Posted under Tags

My suggestion is that we either alias them to hand_on_own_* and use hand_on_another's_* as the the opposite, as it was done on forum #204299, or deprecate them to prevent them being populated further, the same logic applies to the plural tags hands_on_*.

Some examples:

An alias would need gardening first and the first two tags are big for that, that's why I believe deprecating the bigger ones, gardening the smallers and aliasing them would be the ideal scenario, as long everyone agree, I could garden the small tags and request for an alias later in this thread, we already have 11 aliases like that.

I personally prefer an alias, like we did for the other cases.

I'm not sure if deprecated tags could still be aliased, the deprecate request was just so we could have more time to think what we do about them before people keep making the tags bigger, I won't be gardening the larger tags very soon, so this was a temporary solution, I'm not sure to which tag we should alias hand on breast though. In the next days I might come up with alias requests to the smaller tags after gardening them.

BUR #9787 has been rejected.

create alias hand_on_back -> hand_on_own_back
create alias hand_on_knees -> hand_on_own_knees
create alias hand_on_thighs -> hand_on_own_thighs

Did the gardening for them, their status:any search should only return actual examples of hand_on_own_* tags for now. The alias are so that tags like that don't keep popping up indefinitely.

We already have arm_behind_back and arms behind back (the hands equivalent are aliased to these), so the posts under hand on back should be moved to those two instead.

I've moved all images that were clear arm(s) behind back, but I had to leave some where the characters were literally placing the palm of their hand on their back, like those: post #4668157, post #2788388, post #2294020 (her arm isn't even behind her back). I would like if people could leave their opinion on this.

There's another problem that I avoided mentioning first, are we going to tag the other hand_on_* tags literally, like it's done for the knees: hand on own knee, hands on own knee, hands on own knees or should we simplify to distinguish only between the number of hands and not know many knees or thighs the character is placing their hand on?

This might be annoying but it's better that we settle this now than having this being addressed later again and again.
