General Tag Discussion

Thank you - very good point. Fixed :)

@Background Pony #7C7A
No, I think @LightningBolt is right. The whole point of the tag is to allow artists to include the images they are referencing in their redraws.

We already handle those kinds of things. It has nothing to do with this tag.

@Background Pony #7C7A
Indeed, the two images currently tagged ai reference (>>3328702, >>3354531) are, or at least purport to be, the opposite of what that tag is supposed to be for.

ai interpretation also exists; should it stay around for cases where someone redrew an AI-generated image but the post does not include the referenced original AI generated image? (It is presently tagged only on images that would now be appropriately tagged ai reference)

I didn’t mean literally stolen art, only that some people consider AI-generated images to be stolen art.

@Background Pony #52BA
Hmm, you are right. The mermaid image is also not based on an AI image. Though AI image doesn’t seem to be based on the human-drawn image either, despite the artist thinking it is. It seems to be based on a text describing the human-drawn image.

@Ciaran
I coined the tag to be for images that are redrawn based on an AI generated image but so they don’t just get lumped in under ai assisted and thus the ai content tag.

@Dragonpone
Know I’m a bit late, but I think “screaming fan meme” would probably work as a better tag name for the meme

BeReal. Is actually the name of a messanger app that was used for recording the meme, so it might get confusing for any other pics or images referencing BeReal. That aren’t this meme

(That and “screaming fan meme” is a lot more obvious on what the meme is)

I just made the tag “The Isle of Scaly (location)”, but after reading the wiki, I’m not sure if it’s a synonym for the Dragon Lands in G5 or not. Maybe you could make it a sub-tag of “Dragon Lands”?

At first, I thought tags such as sonic & knuckles, sonic the hedgehog 3, and sonic 3 & knuckles were meant to be for screenshots of the game in general.

Now I finally started looking at the tagging history… and it seems there is some confusion on how Sonic 3’s tag is used (as seen in what appears to have been a tag war in >>4921).
How should I know which images to use the tags on and which to not use them on? Until now, I have tried tagging the “Sonic 3” and “Sonic & Knuckles” halves with respective tags along with “Sonic 3 & Knuckles”.

@Algebroot Neogears
Not really sure why another staff member kept removing the sonic 3 tag, it applies…

@Icicle Niceicle 1517
Good point, I’ll fix it.

@Nitro_Indigo
Coulda sworn there was some map or something that showed them at different locations, but I’ll look into it.

@LightningBolt
Caught up in a mass-tag reversal from a Rule #2 offense, possibly?

@Background Pony #52BA
Thanks for naming ai interpretation. I added some images to it from redraw, AI * search, most of which have the reference in description or in the source, not on the image itself. Most of them are thisponydoesnotexist redraws.

@LightningBolt
So, should pics like >>2273595 include the “ai generated” tag in addition to the “ai interpretation” tag? By a literal interpretation of the tags, “ai generated” should apply since a thumbnail of the AI generated reference picture is included in the finished piece. But on the other hand, the picture’s main focus is still the human-made art, not the tiny AI picture. I have the “ai generated” tag hidden but I’m still interested in human-drawn reinterpretations of AI pictures, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way.

@radpanic
No, it should not. ai reference by the name mentally implies what ai was a reference.

@Background Pony #52BA, @Background Pony #7C7A
If ai interpretation is going to be in use, should it be tagged in addition to ai reference on ai reference images?

Should the tags ai content/ai generated/ai assisted all be removed from the posts currently tagged ai reference?
Should they be removed from all the posts currently tagged only ai interpretation?

@Background Pony #52BA
Truthfully, I think they should have different meanings. AI reference being images that were based on an AI image with that image in frame, interpretation being those without ai images in them too.

Well since that was hard to explain maybe I could word that better…

Yes those tags should be removed tho.

Should ai interpretation or ai assisted be used when someone used an AI generation as a basis (heavy referencing or tracing, but with none of the ai image included) but not with the intent of making “a human-made version” of the generated image, or when it’s unclear how similar or different they are because the reference is not shown? For example, (both explicit) >>3350651 or >>3354259?

@Background Pony #52BA
imo, assisted.

@Background Pony #52BA
@LightningBolt
Agreed. Those seem to be tagged correctly; ai assisted and artist:*.

Hey, I wanna make a distinction with tags.

I’ve been tagging a lot of the Ponyscopes, and Libra has her scales in a lot of images, that’s what Libra is.

But the vast, vast majority of images with the scales tag involve reptilian characters, as in, that’s what they have on them.

I’ve been putting the tag scale on the images of the balancing scales instead, but scale seems to be used for the device you step on to show your weight, too.

What would be a good tag to use for the balancing scales as held by Libra?

@rautamiekka
At the very least can we alias bluenote into blue note then? At least in place of figuring out which is which?

How about measuring scales or weighing scales?

@Toastypk
Fine by me.

@Toastypk, @Nitro_Indigo
balance scale exists (but was only used twice so far)

Does wingless spike serve any actual purpose? It appears to have been created and maintained basically by one person.

@JP
The wingless version is very niche, TBF to his fans.
