At some point, all tags that amount to “partially clothed” were aggressively aliased to “nudity”, making that tag rather less useful, as a lot of characters where no genitals at all are visible ended up in it. On the other hand, all clothes are currently aliased to “clothed”, which may prove to be a problem. What should count as nudity? Here’s a VERY tentative proposal. Pup obviously has final decision!
First: I’m assuming pup is not a fan of “partially clothed”, so this entire discussion assumes an equivalent will not be created
Nudity
Includes:
- complete nudity
- Full frontal nudity
- Tentatively defined as “the genitals are fully exposed, as well as breasts if present, in front view” (e.g. >>4882)
- Full exposure of the torso, from neck to upper-thighs
- not nudity of the torso, because I think some transparent/ineffective clothing qualify as nude: >>789
- for the most part this is equivalent to e621’s “mostly nude”
- Any outfit that fully exposes the upper chest, genitals and anus
Whatever definition of “nude” is decided, it would be applied to nude/clothed pairs like “clothed man/nude cub” (if such tags are used)
Aliased (possibly restored): mostly nude
Not aliased: bottomless, topless
Not implied: skimpy
Question: Should bottomless and topless imply “nudity”?
Question: Should “Full frontal nudity” and “mostly nude” be tags at all?
Question: Should there be a tag for characters whose nudity is not merely casual but normal, like digimon and pokemon?
#Clothed
Personally, I would alias or imply all tags about partial nudity to “clothed”, not “nudity”.
However, unless we expect future users to know about “discarded *” tags, I believe clothing item tags should not alias to “clothed”.
Implied by: Skimpy, bottomless, topless, mostly nude (if restored), undressing
Question: Should partial nudity tags other than “mostly nude” alias to “clothed” or to something like “invalid tag”?
