What does it mean?!?
Making the creation date of Galleries visible in some way would be nice. Feels weird that it is tracked but not visible since you can sort gallery searches by it.

Namespaces should be an actual set of possibilities, rather than just anything that precedes the first colon. (star trek and godzilla aren’t meant to be namespaces.)
Actually, it seems like there is a list, but I’m not sure what it’s used for.

The list of namespaces, categories, namespace-to-category relations, and other properties seems like it ought to be data, not hard-coded.

It’s unique because it’s RSS:

An RSS feed for notifications would be nice.
Also, the current watched feed isn’t listed on the API page.

I think the ‘anatomically correct’ tag description should be changed because right now it says “anatomically correct horse vulva” when in reality it should be any part of a horse that has been drawn anatomically correct, including horse penises because we want the viewer to know that it was drawn anatomically correct

Re-requesting the ability to search
source_url history.I’ve come across multiple cases where I’m trying to find an image from an old dead URL, and searching for that URL doesn’t find anything. But if I do a bit more digging and find the image on Derpibooru, I then sometimes see that the old URL I was originally searching for is there in the source history.

It is weird that posts have changelogs, but tag edits don’t. When I want to add a justification to my changes, I usually add a comment to the image. But this is spam for regular image-viewing purposes, while normal comments are spam for tag editing purposes. No one reads multiple pages of “this is so cute” comments before changing tags.

I like this idea. Think about those yearly collab images, and people asking “where’s my OC?”. Just hover over your OC tag and the site shows it to you.

On the right hoof, that would be wonderful for “why the hay is this tagged Rainbow Dash?”; on the left, who would use it for tagging? It’s the same problem that’s shut down my proposals for improved tagging in the past.

That’d be neat, though I’d opt for a vertical and horizontal line to crosshair the element, given how for really big and busy images a circle could be lost…

So, my suggestion is something like a “locate” option, added to the tag dropdown menu, after watch and filter. What it would do is overlay a colored circle on the subject of the tag, like say a character. It would mostly be useful in pictures that feature a large assortment of characters, or otherwise situations where due to image size it’s difficult to see the reason an image might be tagged the way it is. Think of it as a “Where’s Wally/Waldo” cheatsheet. Users would need to be able to manually position the part of the image that corresponds to the tag, independantly of adding the tag itself.

- Yes, that’s the script. Thought it was Ponerpics for some reason.
- I presume hash collisions are rare enough to be a non-issue
- I’m aware that the API change wouldn’t fix the script. I presume it’s abandonware, but I filed a bug report. If it doesn’t get touched before early 2024 (when I’d realistically have time to work on this), I’d like for some bulk API to be in place so I can write a replacement.
- I suspect the errors I’m getting from Marker’s script are related to rate-limiting. Bulk endpoints would reduce the number of requests and, subsequently, the number of points of failure for rate-limiting [and MASSIVELY speed up the process of applying the faves and updoots on the destination boorus].

2. Only has its thread still up on Ponerpics? I swear its author posted his scripts everywhere.
I found this script by Marker in a thread on Ponybooru, is that the one you mean?
The script somewhat works still, however, it completely chokes when encountering an error while fetching the list of images to sync. This makes it useless for those of us with thousands of favorite images or updoots, as it’ll error out on page 45 (at a rate of 50 images/page) and stop instead of retrying or skipping the errored page.
That sounds like an issue with the script, not something for an API to fix…
list_type, # either :faves, :upvotes, :hidden, or :downvotes
page \\ 0, # pagination
What would make this different from the existing search API? (Noting that you didn’t say anything about how many would be listed per page; one must assume it would be limited to no more than 50 per page just like the other API endpoints)
bulk_update takes the output from bulk_list [or just the list of hashes?] and then applies the appropriate operation to all images on the destination booru matching the supplied hashes [after resolving merged duplicates]. The response for bulk_update is a list of hashes with errors and the corresponding error [deleted, totally not found, something else, etc…]
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
IDK how much of an issue hash collisions are. There’s a tiny chance you might end up liking/faving the wrong post.
The script already does this one-by-one through the not-public endpoint which is how the site’s normal UI does it.

Unsure whether here or opening a feature request issue on the Philomena repo.
Implement a bulk endpoint for faves & upvotes (ID & hash only)
Rationale
To improve data portability by re-implementing the booru sync script that
- Seems to have been abandoned
- Only has its thread still up on Ponerpics? I swear its author posted his scripts everywhere.

Pseudocode of endpoint
def bulk_list( # for GET requests
api_key, # whose lists to grab?
list_type, # either :faves, :upvotes, :hidden, or :downvotes
page \\ 0, # pagination
apply_current_filter \\ false, # apply the current filter for the user when retrieving results or grab everything?
) do ...
def bulk_update( # for PUT requests
api_key, list_type, # same as above
hashes, # TODO: exact formatting
) do ...
bulk_list would return something like
[
8675309: "123fa69420abcde",
69420: "f16c98e2848c2f1bfff3985e8f1a54375cc49f78125391aeb80534ce011ead14e3e452a5c4bc98a66f56bdfcd07ef7800663b994f3f343c572da5ecc22a9660f",
]
as a minimal return. For a more comprehensive response, perhaps upgrade the response for each image to be hash, source URLs, and tags (names only, no IDs).

Tags should be color-coded in the add tag dropdown, too. I just created and then had to clean up a mess of EqG tags I accidentally added when assuming “shake your tail” was the tag for tail shaking.

But, it’s just one of many things that the huge script does, and it relies on having a separate cache of categorized tags (which was last updated just under 2 months ago at the time of this post) which may or may not mean it’s something you want to use.
More to the point, part of wanting that feature is hoping it would help other people use the site better, such as by helping people notice in the cases where a tag is a character’s name instead of just what the words say (eg. “cheese sandwich” is not the tag for a food item.)

Do polls show you which options you voted for once they close, or do they only highlight the winning option? This should be clarified in the UI.

Any chance color-coded tags can be color coded while in the adding/removing menus, especially when on the upload page? I’ve missed obvious tags simply because I forgot species or artist multiple times and the color tags would make that easier for my eyes to catch. Rating throws an error so that’s impossible to miss.
