The multiple_scenes tag seems to be the least clear of the multiple_* tag group.

Based on the wiki and past conversations, it's similar to multiple_images. Except that there's something in common in all of them, usually either a character or a location. Sometimes in chronological order, sometimes not.

post #220210 is one example of what I've considered to be multiple_scenes: it jumps from setting to setting, but has the same character in all scenes. post #284119 is an another: same character, three different partners.

However, the second examples used in wiki (post #564251) looks more like a sequence/slideshow to me. Same characters, same location. One scene shown as a slideshow. Should it really be under multiple_scenes?

Currently, the tagging for this is all over the place. Definitely needs some cleaning... but exactly what should be cleaned out? What is the proper way of tagging this?

Slideshows, I'd say no. Multiple_Scenes should involve a scene change.

No, that should be tagged as interactive slideshow, I guess I dropped the ball on that one, I'll change the example now.

My original idea behind this tag's usage was that different scenes, while following the same story/setting, would require different tags for each one.

For example:

1. If two characters were having sex and a third joined in, it would change from a duo sex scene to a group_sex scene.

2. If the character(s) changed location, the new location would be a different scene.

The way I was looking at it was the same as thinking about the scene select option on a DVD/Blu-Ray.

Now that I look at it again I don't think I described this very clearly on the wiki page. Should I go back and re-write the wiki or does anyone else have any ideas for the tag?
