The tag implication #52898 habit -> clothing is pending approval.

Reason: while 'habit' can also refer to a practice/custom, all of the posts under 'habit' that I could see refer to the dress

Any reason for the meh votes? This seems to check out

I think we might want to alias it to a term that's a bit more clear, since it shares its spelling with like the "habitual" kind of habit. maybe like religious_habit, which is the term that Wikipedia uses or maybe just religious_clothing in general, since it's a pretty broadly-defined word.

Ah, fair enough. Personally I don't think there's that much risk with the tag as is, but I'm fine with aliasing it since that's what the majority of folks want.

My meh was because it should imply religious_clothing :P

But now that I think about it, isn't this tag identical to nun_habit?

not exactly, no: post #2430785.

as I stated above, and as shown in the linked Wikipedia article, habit is a pretty broad term. it's used to refer to a many religious outfits across multiple religions.

but also both of these tags are _hella_ mistagged, being tagged on tonnes of characters not wearing the full outfit, often not wearing more than a hood or veil. I think part of that is because there might be a misconception that "habit" refers to the nun_veil on its own.

...as someone who thought the nun veil was the habit, would someone be willing to make a BUR and organize all of this?

The bulk update request #8847 is pending approval.

mass update habit -> habit_(clothing)
change category habit (623) -> invalid
create implication nun_habit (821) -> habit_(clothing) (0)
create alias nun's_habit (7) -> nun_habit (821)
create implication jiasha_robe (4) -> habit_(clothing) (0)
create implication jiasha_robe (4) -> religious_clothing (1634)
create implication hakama (571) -> habit_(clothing) (0)
create implication benedictine_habit (1) -> habit_(clothing) (0)
create implication habit_only (1) -> habit_(clothing) (0)

Reason: Basic BUR for the 'habit' uniforms. I can't say for certain if this is entirely accurate, just my interpretation of the wikipedia article referenced in the forum.

Changes the tag to habit_(clothing) and invalidates habit to avoid tagging of habitual behavior

jiasha_robe receives the religious_clothing implication, due to it's origin in Chinese Buddhism
Unsure if benedictine_habit should receive the same treatment as monks are found amongst many religions, sometimes not having any religious connection at all.

LMK if I missed anything

Is there any reason to not just imply religious_clothing from habit_(clothing)? Wikipedia explicitly calls it "Religious Habit".
