Topic: Tag Implication: clydesdale -> horse

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

I just made a draft_horse -> horse implication thread. My suggestion is that we approve that one, then implicate clydesdale to draft_horse instead of horse (and perhaps do the same for other draft breeds that currently have tags), so that you get this well-working daisy chain.

It would be more orderly like that, I think. With a Clydesdale -> horse implication you'd entirely leave out the draft_horse part, while it would be an excellent umbrella tag for searching for every (tagged) draft breed at once.

+1 to this. I don't know of how many other draft breeds we have though. When I'm more awake I'll see if I can't gather some up.

Cool that we're cool. :)

As for those breeds, ehhmmm... besides clydesdale, two active tags I know of are gypsy_vanner and shire. There's actually not that many draft horses that were tagged by their specific breeds, most taggers just seem to stop at 'draft horse' (which is understandable). And hell, people don't even tag those that often to begin with (which is less understandable), perhaps I'll have to go back and try to do something about that.

We do need those implications anyway though, because currently there are posts that have the breed but not the draft_horse umbrella tag, which is less helpful than having it the other way around.

I'm just summarizing this for readability:

  • Alias: draught_horse -> draft_horse
  • Alias: draft -> draft_horse - I just cleaned it out, it should be okay to alias this (it was already marked under species anyways and maybe 10 posts were just sketches)
  • Alias: vanner -> gypsy_vanner - (probably optional) I don't see this used for anything else. I'm not sure why it was marked as a character tag, because they were all on posts with lostdragon01's character "Tinker" which is a gypsy vanner. /shrug

I'll add to the list as I find them. Thanks Jugofhat. :)

Edit: I separated mustang into mustang_(horse) and mustang_(car). I'm writing a wiki for it right now, but we may want to consider a *_(disambiguation) page.

That's all I've managed to find for now.
