Image tagging changes (custom tags!)

Also, side note unrelated to the above, I've merged the tags for "big biceps" (which I created) and "boulder biceps" into "huge biceps" instead.

The idea is to mostly reserve it for shots showing really huge biceps, a few good examples:

The thinking being that normal-sized biceps are covered by either the regular "biceps" tag, or also "peaked biceps" if they're particular shapely and sharp.

Note that some "huge biceps" also deserve the "peaked biceps" tag, Charla Sedacca has some nice examples:

Could we do the same for calves, to help separate the truly massive from the ones that just happen to be in a pic? Huge instead of Big?

An active tag redundancy is "taller" vs. "height difference." I think the former is preferable because it's more intuitive (and shorter).

Could we do the same for calves, to help separate the truly massive from the ones that just happen to be in a pic? Huge instead of Big?

Yeah, I've merged both "big calves" and "wide calves" (that distinction isn't really enough to differentiate it) into "huge calves", along with untagging a few I didn't think belonged (or just switching their tags to "calves" if they didn't already have it).

An active tag redundancy is "taller" vs. "height difference." I think the former is preferable because it's more intuitive (and shorter).

I went with "height difference" for the tag because it was a little more popular, and sounds more like tags I've seen elsewhere, which will hopefully make it easier to find. I'm open to changing it to "taller" if people prefer that though.

Can you also make it so that we can search an image only including the set of tags we filtered with. Lets say I put in forearm and abs and use the exclusive filter, it should only throw out images with only the forearm tag, abs tag or both but no other tag.

Noticed a 'roids' tag on this pic ... is this libellous and could therefore potentially generate legal action against the site?

I've deleted that, as no good can come of it.

And some people still don't know the meaning of the word "sleeve"

Exactly its so annoying

Thanks for deleting, presumably you can ban certain words or phrases.

Yep, tags that are deleted(rather than merged) can't be recreated.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what poses like this should be tagged?

Wide pose? Wide stance? A-pose? Standing legs spread? Standing legs apart?

I think if the field for a model is selected, only the relevant tags should be shown (suggested), based on how many there is. Or if it would limit the workflow for some (like editing the tags before editing the model), just show them below with different style.

Muscle angels is currently a tag, though the image has been deleted. presumably we shouldn't have tags to paysite material that shouldn't be on here in the first place?

Not sure what you mean by "relevant tags". Just the most common ones tagged on other pictures of the same model?

Should sidewinder glutes and glutes from the front be merged too?

I went with "height difference" for the tag because it was a little more popular, and sounds more like tags I've seen elsewhere, which will hopefully make it easier to find. I'm open to changing it to "taller" if people prefer that though.

Now there's a tag for "taller than him" https://www.girlswithmuscle.com/images/?tags=...

If we take all of the "taller than him" pics and combine them with the original "taller," then that's a little more popular than the cumbersome "height difference." I suppose one could say that "taller than HIM" is distinct as a non-trivial number of members specifically fantasize about relatively larger females, but this could overlap with the "bigger than him" tag, which, obviously, does not necessarily mean taller. All of which is to say "bigger than him" works reasonably well in conjunction with "taller" -- if she is, in fact, taller.

Is there a chance to add a column to sort by "date last tagged" to the tags page?

By this I think it works be a good way to sort by tags that have recently been added to an image if that makes sense. It helps to know which new tags may have been added to an existing image, aiding new discoveries I feel.

Alternatively maybe add an option to the drop down in the search, along with "recently commented"?

Can we have a pure/natural pecs tag? Like no implants and stuff...

The whole point of the custom tagging system is that if you have a good idea for a tag you can just start adding it, no need to ask. They'll either be adopted by others, merged/deleted as needed, or languish in obscurity.

Who did this lol

I appreciate the effort but I deleted those tags.

I appreciate the effort but I deleted those tags.

For context, that one was tagged:

adductors, gastrocnemius medial, hamstrings, iliotibial tract, latissimus, tibialis anterior, trapezius, triceps, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis

Yeah, that's a little much. The important parts in terms of large muscle groups for that picture are pretty much covered by delts and quads. Maybe calves, but I think they ran out of room for that, lol.

EDIT: Unrelated note, I've merged "stage" into the more-popular "competition" tag, since they were almost entirely redundant.

Thank you, Chainer and other mods, this is a fantastic change. I've been using it a lot and it's greatly improved my enjoyment of the site. The one issue that I've noticed, though, is a lot of overlapping/redundant tags. I've noticed a few in particular that I come across a lot, and have a few questions about how to deal with them when I see them.

1. "Mature" and "Over 40". Should we simply fold one of these into the other? Or should we have different age categories for older women? A 40s, a 50s, a 60s, a 70+? If so, should we also tag all of them "Mature" as a general tag for older women?
2. "Sleeve" and "Leggings". Leggings is a popular new tag but ofc those are also a type of sleeve. Should we keep both tags on, or remove "Sleeve" from pics tagged with "Leggings"?
3. In pics tagged with something like "Huge biceps" or "Huge calves", should we leave the original tag of "Biceps" or "Calves" in place?
4. For full-body tags, "Huge" and "Massive" seem redundant. Should we replace one with the other?
5. "Breast Implants" and "Bolt-ons". Is Bolt-ons redundant? Or should we use it for especially large/fake-looking implants?

Whatever direction the mods give here I'll follow, just to organise some of this better. Thank you!

 1. "Mature" and "Over 40". Should we simply fold one of these into the other?

Yeah, I'm inclined to just merge those if no one has any good objections (there's a relevant thread where I'll also ask), it's too vague a distinction otherwise. Different pics of Trudy Ireland are tagged with either, for instance.

I already viewed the "mature" tag as technically being open to any woman over 40, although I would question if it needs to be on say a young-looking 41-year-old.

I don't see much use of the tags I'd disagree with currently, for instance Molly McKennedy is 48 and Maggie Watson is 49, they just look really good for their age (which is no doubt part of the appeal for some people).

EDIT: Have now gone ahead and merged "over 40" into "mature".

 2.-3. [...]

I have some thoughts about "automatically implied/partial match" tags, but we'll have to see if Chainer wants to add any more complexity to the current system. For now I would just tag the pics with both the general and specific versions, for instance I've been adding both "biceps" and "peaked biceps" to some relevant pics.

 4. For full-body tags, "Huge" and "Massive" seem redundant. Should we replace one with the other?

"Huge" was only applied to a single clip, where it didn't really belong and has now been removed. I'll wait to see if it gains any other specialized use to differentiate it from "massive", as of right now it technically doesn't exist.

 5. "Breast Implants" and "Bolt-ons". Is Bolt-ons redundant?

Another likely merge. "Breast implants" is currently more popular, but I'm somewhat inclined to favor "bolt-ons" to make it clear it's just for the more obvious cases, since I don't think there's really a need to tag the more subtle implants (which for the most part they aren't). There's a relevant thread for that too where I'll ask.

EDIT: Most people seem to be in favor of "breast implants", and since it sounds more respectful and is the more popular tag, I'll go with that one.

Suggestion:

Searching images with "biceps" should include images with tags like "biceps flex", "double biceps flex" etc tags with word "biceps".
