Notoriously Divine Tagger - Consistently uploads images above and beyond the minimum tag requirements. And/or additionally, bringing over the original description from the source if the image has one. Does NOT apply to the uploader adding several to a dozen tags after originally uploading with minimum to bare tagging.

I miss the show so much
Does anyone know what the oda 997 tag is for? Random sampling suggests it has something to do with Russia, but I don’t know what. I also noticed a variant, oda 1997 used by two images uploaded recently.
Now I know the answer to this: it’s the name of a fan universe some people play in (see >>2860311).
But now the question is, should it be a gallery instead?

Well, if OCs on the pictures are from that universe, I’d say the tag can stay. Just like we have tags for fanfic universes. But let’s see what others think.
Background Pony #7C7A
I have two questions:
  1. How are we supposed to tag images that are seamlessly repeating patterns? Examples:

    I searched for tiled* and seamless* and it looks like these images are often being tagged tiled background and sometimes seamless. These tags are a mishmash between images that are seamlessly repeating patterns, images that have seamlessly repeating patterns in the background, and images that have actual ceramic tiles in them. They need to be split by meanings. Do you know of any other tags for this kind of images?

  1. There’s pattern, but I don’t know of a tag that distinguishes between the presence of a a pattern vs. when the entire image is a pattern. Also, to be slightly more pedantic, I don’t know if there is (or should be) something to distinguish a repeating pattern where the image is ready to tile vs. when the image contains a repeating pattern but won’t tile as it stands (such as the two examples you posted - they won’t tile seamlessly)
    [edit] Among pictures tagged tiled background, all but three have at least one of wallpaper, pattern, or seamless when the whole image is the pattern itself.
  2. unideer (found by looking at the “implied by” section for deer)

I’m personally for an au: prefix, like the meme: prefix. We need more quantifiers to make sense of all the possible tags now, especially obscure ones.
@Background Pony #7C7A
Seamless seems like a good choice for that. repeating has also been used once.
Also, a quick google search shows that ‘unicorn deer’ are a thing, so I’d just go with that. A Shadhavar is visually similar based on that wiki image, but doesn’t have the same horn properties.

extra fun at parties
Should micro bikini imply useless clothing, considering that the meaning of “micro bikini” seems to be, as it’s tagged, that it only barely covers the labia cleavage and the areolas at most. The most prevailing coverage seems to be of the “postage stamp and dental floss” magnitude.

There’s overlap, but probably not enough for an implication. Even if micro bikini only barely covers up what it’s supposed to, useless clothing doesn’t even do that much.

My Little Pony - 1992 Edition

@UnderwoodART
I’m pretty sure it’s a typo. Checking the deletion history it looks like people were trying to type “pony” and hit a wrong key.
As for “pinies”, I’m going to guess the uploader was just trying to type “ponies”. A brief search for “pinies” isn’t turning up anything promising.
Background Pony #52BA
@UnderwoodART
Some of the other tags it was uploaded with, such as robot pony, would have added pony due to being an implication - so there’s no evidence whether the uploader really wrote both pony and piny or not. (My bet is for “not”)

How about we follow in Ponybooru’s hoofsteps and alias the “op is a duck” tag to “op is a cuck”? Plus using this as the official thumbnail.

Goodbye guys ;)
Yesterday, I came across a certain number of tags that I find to be rather confusing and intertwined with each other. Does anyone have any input?
I’ve never really been invested in those bondage tags until recently :) but apart from the middle tag, I’d think that diaper bondage and diaper suit the other two are simultaneously related to one another.
That’s how I look at it at least. :)

It looks like screencap was allowed on fan animations in the past (5 years ago) but I believe now you just would tag the name of the artist and no other particular tag; youtube link or animated at source might apply. There’s also fan animation but with only 56 posts tagged, it doesn’t seem to be something people think about.
game screencap exists for pony customization done in games (though, it’s unfortunate that it includes the keyword “screencap” and I also see it getting used on official games like A Maretime Bay Adventure, so perhaps a thread should be made to talk about these shortcomings).
screenshots exists for the rest, such as if an artist posts a sketch/doodle with their art program’s interface visible.
I agree in principle about clear tag names; maybe that also merits its own thread?
