Topic: Tag Implication: mangle_(fnaf) -> funtime_foxy_(fnaf)

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

Implicating mangle_(fnaf) → funtime_foxy_(fnaf)
Link to implication

Reason:

Mangle was the name given to the broken animatronic AFTER it was broken. Scott, the creator, has now revealed an unbroken version of the character which is named Funtime Foxy. This would mean to imply that the broken one would normally still have been called funtime foxy until they started referring to it by the nickname.

However, Funtime Foxy should not imply Mangle due to the fact that Mangle is strictly for the broken version of the character.

EDIT: The tag implication mangle_(fnaf) -> funtime_foxy_(fnaf) (forum #194414) has been rejected by @SnowWolf.

I say similar to Wolf Link/Link, we should keep them separate. Mangle is a busted up "Funtime Foxy," yes, but that in itself makes her different.

I don't know. This doesn't seem necessary to do.

It'd be like implying Derpy_Hooves_(mlp) to Muffins_(mlp), when the latter is her canonical name.

That sounds more like it should be aliased. This is more like a form change, yeah? Like how Photoshop Flowey is still tagged with Flowey the Flower. (that is a form change, right? I know nothing about Undertale)

Seriously? They shouldn't do that. Flowey The Flower should be tagged for when it's more reminiscent of Flowey's original flower form--There's a great deal of difference between that and Photoshop Flowey.

Though Photoshop Flowey is still Flowey, no? I mean, we don't have separate tags for Giygas.

Once again, Ko-San, I bring up wolf_link. Just because it's "The Same character" doesn't mean we tag it as such. People wanting to see Omega Flowey don't want to see Flowey the Flower and vice-versa.

You mean like this
https://e621.net/post/index/1/link_%28wolf_form%29%20link

Also, Found out that Mida's two forms have been aliased away to just "Midna" and many Werehog and Super Sonic posts are tagged with both as well, and the implications were even suggested by an admin. So that's multiple examples of different tagging methods used on this site. As such, it appears that there is no set rule to tagging forms and some instances have forms tagged separately, some together, and other not at all.

Midna's forms aren't too different, so the implication went through. Link's wolf form is different enough that while it has not truly been denied, it's been left unimplied for a year now.

The reason I bring this up is because of the fact that many people have ALREADY made a bunch of "non mangled" versions of mangle, and with this new game coming out, people will be making images of Funtime Foxy and people will be doing searching for Funtime Foxy, but when someone searches for Funtime foxy, they miss out on all the tags listed as Mangle that have mangle in said un-mangled state.

If this implication isn't done, it means someone would have to go through and re-tag all the images of mangle that are not mangled (fan created or otherwise) and tag them as Funtime Foxy, the ACTUAL name of the character, whereas Mangle was a nickname for the broken version of the character who was "mangled" beyond all recognition.

I'm honestly open to suggestions.
