Topic: Warcraft Dragons & visage forms

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

TL;DR should we continue tagging visages as dragons?

I've been wondering how Tag What You See rules should apply to dragon visage forms from World of Warcraft. While they technically can be verified visually, the average person probably isn't looking for an elf with horns when they search 'dragon'. Posts like below are a good example of the situation I'm describing.

I've created the visage form tag to disambiguate them from their traditional dragon forms.

As someone who doesn't know the franchise, these examples indeed look nothing like dragons.

The first one is simply a horned_humanoid'3'

visage forms are character-specific, so just apply TWYS to it. some might not look like dragons, but others (and especially the player class' visage form) do. this problem also applies to various non-WoW characters, like Kanna and Lucoa's humanoid-appearing forms getting tagged dragon / dragon_humanoid, so something more on a broad scale needs to be done or said for what qualifies as dragon and what doesn't...
