Implicating on_back -> lying.

Reason: The wiki description of on_front says that the character is laying on their back. Laying on your back is laying too. (why is laying aliased to lying?)

Maybe an alias would be more suiting
Thoughts?

But on_front is laying too, but not at all times. That gives you two (vastly different) types of laying. Aliasing one of them would imply it's possible for a character to lay on its belly and its back at the same time. I'd vote for your idea if on_front would get cleaned. On front can be all_fours and laying. If that is sorted out (when the not laying would be changed to all_fours) the definition of on_front would imply laying, and then both on_front and on_back could be aliased/implied to lying (really, why isn't it called laying?). I'd vote for implication over aliasing for now.

No it can't.

all_fours is for a character on hands/arms/elbows and knees/feet at the same time. lying implies that a large portion of the character's torso is in contact with a horizontal surface.

The definition of on_front, copy/pasted from e621's wiki: mages or Animations in which a character is supported on their hands or knees, or otherwise lying on their bellies.

That's both all_fours and laying to me.

Proposed edit to on_front:

Images or Animations in which a character is lying at least partially on their front.

A character who is lying on their front is putting a reasonable portion of the front side of their torso on the surface below them. This could be anything from being flat on the floor to supported by their own breasts.

ass_up and all_fours, which imply that a character's front is down and pointed toward the floor, may be included alongside on_front, but neither implies or requires on_front, and on_front does not imply or require either.
