Topic: People not tagging 'anthro' and 'feral' correctly?

Posted under Off Topic

Seriously, this is getting on my nerves.

Basically, images tagged with 'breasts' and 'my_little_pony' are lacking either the tags 'anthro' or 'anthrofied'. Likewise, images of a feral nature, also featuring the 'my_little_pony' tag, are not being tagged as such.

Really, I'd like this to get cleared up, and for people here to start tagging correctly.

anthro is typically only used when ferals are present within the same image

Believe me it was worse. I've got most of my tag edits on this, but people still are not tagging feral tag.

So, are there pictures anthro -feral that are correctly tagged or not? Once I've asked SnowWolf about it, and she said that all this pictures are wrongly tagged indeed. So I've proceed to cleaning, and got smacked by other admins for that and post #241540 in particular. (Though I got unsmacked pretty quick. It's good thing to ask admin before you do major tag edits.) Final conclusion was to leave it alone for that time, and it was supposed to be discussed in future. Well, now we're in future - there are still no flying cars but what about this case?

Then clearly we aren't in the future yet. Keep waiting.

BUMP.

Can I get an answer when tag anthro should be added? Wiki page (which was edited last time by an admin, so it's probably not wiki vandalism) clearly states that all anthro -feral pictures are not correctly tagged. And there's a lot of them.

However I've seen admins that are tagging differently, heard at least 3 different version of how to tag anthros, and was told once to hold with removing anthro tag till this issue will be resolved. I'm enough patient for not asking every few days, but I've been waiting few months and there's no clear answer when to tag anthro.

Used to think so too, but it seems like it's being used whenever an anthro character is present, as a search for anthro solo would show

Which is how it should be, as feral is a thing that exists alongside it, and we need tag distinction.
