Tag merge suggestions

The mods on this site are able to merge redundant tags together. This is the thread to bring tags to our attention that you feel like need to be merged. Suggested merges should be of tags that are very similar, if not identical to each each other. For example, "shredded" and "ripped" have been merged.

Also keep in mind that some tags that are similar can also have very specific differences, such as "double biceps flex" and "back double biceps flex". In this case, we'll probably need to change "double biceps flex" to "front double biceps flex" and fix the tags on an image per image basis accordingly. The other option would be to delete "double biceps flex" and start "front double biceps flex" from scratch (this is a last resort).

Being that these are considered suggestions, please do not expect them to all be acted on. We will consider each of them, however.

Thanks for being on top of this, guys. Loving the new system. Just noticed a few recently that should be merged: "forearms veins" into "forearm veins", and "tights" and "yoga pants" with "leggings". And there are several "chest" tags now - should those just be merged into the equivalent "pec" tags?

As much as I like the joke, do we really need tags like bad grammar?

There are a few instances corresponding to this theme. Plural versions and singular versions of the same idea.

Suggest consolidating:

"feat of strength" into a single "strength" tag

"flexible" into a single "flexibility" tag

Not really.

As part of the new tags system we will tune the tags, and will make adjustments as necessary. As mods we are trying to address questionable tags or tags that are best merged into others. Some will be obvious, while others need a little more discussion.

The other challenge is that it is not always clear how a tag is best used. Myself, I would rather have tags where they describe something visible in the photo and not open to interpretation. One example for this is “thong” where it was being used on photos where only the front is visible.

We are looking to see how to better with model type tags (nationality, ethnicity, etc), but this is a work in progress.

I agree with this. Tags should address attributes objectively visible in the photograph/video. An example of a problematic tag: “nice face.“

I think I understand “huge calves” or “huge biceps” to mean their size relative to the subject’s body, but even then, this is strangely subjective. Maybe some attributes will require a cultural consensus among users and will take some time to normalize. An example of this is the generalized “sleeve”. Now we can have “quads under pants” whereas “sleeve” was only and always reserved for arms.

Many tags are word form variants. For example, “smile” and “smiling.” I suggest consolidating into the most basic form of the noun (in this case, “smile”).

I would use Huge Calves for images where the calves are prominently big, wide, and the focus, compared to if they just happen to be in an image.

We should have a ranking system for body part tags like going from normal to big. grand. huge giant. super giant. ultra gigantic hyper colossal omega rank s. and so on

I would prefer to keep the use of muscle groups and body parts as uniform as possible. The old set of tags had a dozen of those, let's try to stick to those, unless the results are wrong or ridiculous. So when combining words, always use 'veins', not 'vein'. Use 'delts/shoulders' not 'delt' or 'shoulders'. So here are some suggestions - and please keep in mind English is my second language, so I'm not sure if everything will sound good to a native speaker.

ab separation ➡️ abs separation

abdominal pose ➡️ abs pose

abs & thigh pose ➡️ abs & quads pose

thick thighs ➡️ thick quads

thigh gap ➡️ quads gap

thigh veins ➡️ quads veins

lower ab veins ➡️ lower abs veins

pec veins ➡️ pecs veins

delt/shoulder veins ➡️ delts/shoulders veins

ass veins ➡️ glutes veins

shoulder veins ➡️ delts/shoulders veins

calf veins ➡️ calves veins

hamstring veins ➡️ hamstrings veins

forearm veins ➡️ forearms veins

quad veins ➡️ quads veins

bicep veins ➡️ biceps veins

arm veins ➡️ biceps veins ?

pumpkin delts ➡️ pumpkin delts/shoulders

rear delts ➡️ read delts/shoulders

capped shoulders ➡️ capped delts/shoulders

quad flex ➡️ quads flex

quad shake ➡️ quads shake

quad control ➡️ quads control

quad hang ➡️ quads hang

glute clenching ➡️ glutes clenching

glute flex ➡️ glutes flex

glute bounce ➡️ glutes bounce

glute ham tie-in ➡️ glutes hamstrings tie-in

pec bouncing ➡️ pecs bouncing

pec cleavage ➡️ pecs cleavage

pectoral split ➡️ pecs split

calf hang ➡️ calves hang

calf smoosh ➡️ calves smoosh

toe-to-shin calf flex ➡️ toe-to-shin calves flex

double calf ➡️ double calves

calf bounce ➡️ calves bounce

calf reveal ➡️ calves reveal

tricep pull ➡️ triceps pull

side tricep pose ➡️ side triceps pose

trap flex ➡️ traps flex

Also, pose, poses and posing should be used consistenly. So I would suggest

pose ➡️ posing

mandatory poses ➡️ mandatory pose

triceps posing ➡️ triceps pose

The same for (biceps/glute/calf) bounce and (pec) bouncing. I don't mind which one, but pick one of those and stick to that one.

I have been tagging known tall people (5'10"+) as 'tall', even if it's not necessarily visible in the photo.

Suggest consolidating:

"feat of strength" into a single "strength" tag

"flexible" into a single "flexibility" tag

I merged "flexible".

The "strength" tag only had a few images, but there was no consistency in its use so I went through each one and retagged or deleted where appropriate. Some were merely videos of women doing pullups. While yes you have to be fairly strong to do pullups, with that logic an overwhelming majority of the women on this site would be eligible for the "strength" tag (as it was being used). Usage like that is what destroys the value of a tag.

Thanks for being on top of this, guys. Loving the new system. Just noticed a few recently that should be merged: "forearms veins" into "forearm veins", and "tights" and "yoga pants" with "leggings". And there are several "chest" tags now - should those just be merged into the equivalent "pec" tags?

I merged "forearms veins".

"tights" was another one that had no consistency in its use. Some of the images weren't of women wearing leggings, but stockings. So I changed those one by one and merged the rest. I fully merged "yoga pants" into "leggings".

"chest" was deleted since... everyone in the world has a chest. That's like making a tag called "skin".

Would anyone have any objection to me merging the biceps bounce and twist n pop tags into just "biceps control"? I feel like there's a lot of overlap between clips involving quick flexing, biceps tensing from static poses, and forearm twisting, to get basically the same effect.

Oct 21, 2024 - edited Oct 21, 2024 - permalink

Bare feet and barefoot tags and the like.

Capped shoulders and pumpkin delts

I agree "twist n' pop" is a form of biceps control, as is the "biceps bounce." I think the folks who are really into that stuff might see them as specific enough movements that the tags should be different. I've seen this same issue to a larger degree with:

"Piercing." I think "piercing" should be the lowest-level description, whether navel, eyebrow, etc. Querying "piercing" combined with "abs" should yield the desired results.

Also "feet." I think "bare feet" is a bit redundant. Yes, you can see some feet with certain open shoes. However, there is a tag for "sandals." But again, there are folks who view these things very specifically.

Given some of the duplication, “bare feet” has replaced feet. It does mean that there are now sandals and heels in the mix (needing to have tags adjusted), but honestly having feet and sandals just seems too much focus on one part of the body. Especially when we have a 10 tag limit.

I have also observed tagging where the tag item is either not clearly visible (only seeing front side of bikini, while having a thong tag or foot is cut off the edge of the photo) or the perspective leads to potential mis-interpretation.

Striped bikini, white bikini, purple bikini, tropical bikini, pink bikini, blue bikini, black bikini, red bikini, and I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple more as well...

Surely this can all just be put under bikini? No need to get THAT specific imho.

I'd agree with that

I'm partial to, and have put some work into kickstarting, the flag bikini tag, although I agree all the specific colors might be a bit much.

Or maybe not, if we eventually get some sort of hierarchial tag system working, so that "red bikini" automatically apples the general "bikini" tag in some way. I do like white bikinis even if I haven't been tagging that, and I can imagine some people might want to be able to look up other colors the same way.

 

On a separate note, I don't see much reason not to merge the costume and cosplay tags into a single "costume/cosplay" one. Technically "cosplay" could be for specific existing characters and "costume" could be more general, like a generic female warrior or nurse costume, but in practice there's a bunch of overlap in how they're being used, especially in cases where people may not know the character involved. There are also character-specific tags like "wonder woman cosplay" than can be added when needed.

Yes, as in "chest," everyone has feet.

In this case, "bare feet" probably needs to be consolidated with "barefoot."

'venezuelian' needs to be merged into venezuelan, because the latter is the correct spelling.
