I'm not sure if sending a message to a random admin is the right way to go, so I'm asking here. If I should not have, please let me know.

This question is about a specific image I changed tags on but I am having second thoughts after seeing another user removed "death" in the past. I added "death" and "snuff" to this.

Someone clarified in the comments that it's not death but zombification. Death was removed as a tag. I didn't realize that before making my change, but that can easily be reverted if I was in error. I did not add zombification, since I wasn't sure.

Is this obviously zombification in TWYS? Is it a case where artist intent sways it? Whether or not that is the case, does this count as death, and if so snuff?

Never a bad idea to ask an admin, A great way to do, is to always ask first, Dood! ◠‿╹)~★
Good on ya for reaching for advice like this!

As for the post, I'd say the eyes are a dead giveaway, That be zombification or slave-ification.
(Pun retroactively intended T‿T)
The eyes are glowing, even if there's nothing behind them. While you're totally right, if this
was real, peep would be hitting the continue button for that Game Over. But in cartoon land,
When the brain is removed, It's saying without saying that Player 1 is Brain-less and
Slave to the goo now, Dood

Thanks! I removed the death and snuff tags that I added and added zombification.

Although this is not explicitly stated in the death wiki, by looking at the implied tag necrophilia, one can deduce that death should not apply to be living dead (i.e., undead).
Thus, in the post in question, the process of turning a character from living to undead should not classify as death or any of its associated tags (like killing, dying, corpse or snuff/necrophilia).
