Topic: Young (yes, MLP) Ponies Not Tagged Cub! D:

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

I have recently noticed that most of these pictures (particularly when I recently decided to look for good pictures of Sweetie Belle as an adult) are not tagged with an appropriate age tag. Is there a reason for this, or is it okay if I go ahead and add "cub" to all of the ones in which young ponies are not tagged correctly?

P.S.: To brony haters out there, I know this may seem like a very focused attempt, benefiting only bronies instead of the community on the whole, but I considered fixing tags on all cub pictures, and soon realised that ponies (who are popular established characters and usually drawn the way they were established) are much easier to search for than just all untagged cub pictures.

Can you provide us an example of a pony pic that should be tagged as cub

I was once mass tagging cubs in mlp, especially in explicit pictures, but I kinda gave it up for a while. It's often hard to tell whether it's cub yet, or not. Maybe I should start it again.

For example many pictures in ~diamond_tiara_(mlp) ~silver_spoon_(mlp) ~scootaloo_(mlp) ~sweetie_belle_(mlp) ~apple_bloom_(mlp) ~snips_(mlp) ~snails_(mlp) -cub search. This is one of few searches I've made while doing tag editing.

Oh, then go ahead and tag them. I'll help out and put this on my tagging projects list

You stinking Janitors and Privileged and your no-good ability to search more than 6 tags at once. I'm so jealous.

Poor Spike, since EG nobody treats him seriously anymore. He's not even a secondary char now.

Edit: Oh, btw, for me boobs != cub. Is that ok?

IMO it depends on context. When there is an adult pony nearby with bigger body and teats/breasts then I don't think so. Also if breasts/teats are not that big then it can be ambiguous.
Not to mention that cub tag is
a) also for teenagers
b) has that phrase:

Please err on the side of caution and tag cub even if you suspect they might be 'of age,' but are not sure.

On a similar, but unrelated note, there are about ~1000 mlp posts that don't have any kind of body composition modifier (anthro, feral, humanized etc.)

mlp -anthro -feral -humanized

Is rule that anthro tag is valid only when there is also feral tag removed? I have a feeling that I can't just change wiki even though the issue is unresolved from months. Until then there's no way to make this search much more empty. IMO better idea is to search for fim -anthrofied -humanized -feral -spike_and_other_anthro_characters and suggest implication anthrofied -> anthro once again when rule will be changed.
