Topic: missused tag: Jailbird vs Jailbait

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

This topic has been locked.

Jailbird is an artist. A mighty fine one at that. I don't see any use for the tag describing an inmate, as it sounds kinda nickname-ish.

Jailbait has two posts. Two cases isn't what I'd call an epidemic but I do see how this tag could be useful.

The confusion is searching with jailbrid return all kinds of jailbait instead.

Maybe it's because you can't fucking spell "jailbird" correctly.

Now now, splepping is hard to do. Spelling mistakes aside, Jailbird is an artist and will be used as such. I'm not seeing jailbird return any jailbait so it leads me to ponder, what exactly do you want?

You see how jailbird shows up in yellow in tag lists? That's because it's an artist tag. There is an artist known as Jailbird.
