The bulk update request #8898 is active.

create alias pointy_eared_humanoid (6) -> humanoid_pointy_ears (66176)

Reason: A couple of pointy ear tags that weren't aliased already.

Hmm, AKA the elf ears tag?
I checked to make sure species tags existed, i.e. ~elf ~goblin pointed_eared_humanoid
Oh wait, the second one... you want to make sure they're humanoids.
pointy_eared -humanoid 32 results
pointy_eared humanoid 7 results

I went ahead and fixed it: pointy_eared humanoid -pointy_eared_humanoid
All but post #4763854 of those results was humanoids with pointy ears. The pointy_eared line in the alias request is not needed.

It looks like there's a lot of non-humanoid characters with pointy ears.
pointy_eared -humanoid anthro 27 results
pointy_eared -humanoid -anthro 5 results

The regular pointy_ears tag is aliased away, so i don't see why pointy_eared should be different.

that should very much be reversed in my opinion and both 'pointy ears' tags invalidated! under humanoid_pointy_ears anthro solo -demon alone there are a couple hundred submissions that don't actually have humanoid ears that taper to a point. more than likly exactly because of that old alias. Almost all submissions on pointy_eared are not actually humanoid

More funny ones:
Tuning fork ears. Oddly, forked ears is a tag. It has nothing to do with tuning forks.
Antenna ears
LASER ears.
Dolphin ears.
Bigger on the inside ears.
V-shaped ears.
Hyper ears.

And yes, penis ears.
