We are very inconsistent with our naming convention when it comes to watersports related tags. According to the urine & peeing wikis, urine seems to be the preferred term for the substance itself, along with related location tags (such as urine_in_mouth); with peeing being used for the activity instead of urination (such as peeing_on_partner).

Tags using piss have all been aliased away to urine and pee equivalents except for death_piss, which still seems to use it.

So I guess the point of this forum post was to ask, is there an actual reason for the divide in substance/location tags and the activity tag? Or should we change all the peeing_* tags to urinating_* along with peeing itself?

There were talks of peeing being aliased to urinating a while back but it ended up getting reversed because of the amount of effort involved in moving the tags over. I think it would've technically took over 100 BURs to get it done.

Ah, fair enough I guess. I must have missed that thread when I was searching for urine discussions lol

topic #28231 and topic #28493 are the relevant threads. Nothing got done and everything got rejected for no good reason, presumably the admins not wanting to think about piss and shit too deeply.

Yeah, I saw topic #28493, just figured lots of other big changes have happened since it was discussed 2+ years ago. I didn't see the 100 BUR topic faucet mentioned, but I believe it. Lots of implications and aliases to be redone if there was a change.

Seriously though, here recently we've had the massive video_games tag being fixed, we had species tags simplified, and years ago there was the whole gender tag situation that was fixed. Huge tag projects aren't off the table, and I don't think this tag situation is much different other than the fact it's more niche than the others tbh.
