To suggest new fetish tags, check the following guide. In this thread, you can make requests for artists, circles (groups), cosplayers, parodies and characters to be moved into their respective
namespace.
Tag slaving as well as any tag alias requests also go in this thread.
Any requests made need to fulfil the rules found below. If you have any questions, please PM a
tag grouper.
1: Requests can only contain alphanumeric characters, "." (dot) and "-" (dash) symbols.
2.1: Any character requests needs to be in order of western name convention;
given name, middle name, surname.
2.2: All other namespaces follow their respective original order.
3.1: Make sure to group different namespaces, and don't mix between them:
QUOTE
Artists:
a:artist example 1
a:artist example 2
a:artist example 3
(...and so on)
Groups/Circles:
g:group example 1
g:group example 2
g:group example 3
(...and so on)
Characters:
c:character example 1
c:character example 2
c:character example 3
(...and so on)
3.2: If post contains the adding of three or more tags from a single gallery they should be listed separately from the rest of the requests, and instead be grouped in their own paragraph:
QUOTE
Multi-gallery Request:
Link to gallery
a:artist example 1 | Sourcelink
a:artist example 2 | Sourcelink
a:artist example 3 | Sourcelink
c:character example 1 | Sourcelink
SourceLink 2
3.3: Make sure there is no blank spaces between
namespace: and
request entry.
QUOTE
artist:artistexample -or- a:artistexample
NOT
artist: artistexample -or- a: artistexample
3.4: No more than 40 requests entries per post is allowed, longer lists make them harder to process. Also make sure to include a line break for every 6th request entry.
3.5: A tag can in some cases be shared between multiple characters or artists. If a request entry already has established usage, try providing an alternative name that can be used instead. Make sure to provide a source where the alternative name is used. Obscure unofficial nicknames are not appropriate.
4.1: When making a slave requests do the following:
QUOTE
Slave:
ArtistMaster > ArtistSlave
GroupMaster > GroupSlave
CharacterMaster > CharacterSlave
4.2: Slaved tags help with searchability as any slaved tags will search the master tag. Adding a slaved tag to a gallery results in the master being added instead.
5.1: When requesting a tag alias:
QUOTE
Alias:
ArtistPrimary > ArtistAlias
GroupPrimary > GroupAlias
CharacterPrimary > CharacterAlias
5.2: Aliasing is a special case of slaving and a purely visual change.
6.1: Every request entry needs a source, make sure to always include the source list:
QUOTE
Sources:
a:artist example 1 SourceLink
a:artist example 2: SourceLink 1
SourceLink 2
SourceLink 3
g:group example 1: SourceLink
c:character example 1: SourceLink
c:character example 2: SourceLink 1
SourceLink 2
6.2: Provide a link to a gallery where the request entry fulfils
tag presence.
Exception to this rule is if the tag has already been added to the misc:namespace.
6.3: Provide sources for the romanization if possible not just kanji.
6.4: The following sources are not deemed trustworthy:
- Anthologies table of content pages
- English DLsite
- DMM
- Google translate or other automated translation tools
Failing to adhere to the above instruction will likely result in your post being ignored, this is especially true if you have been told to read through the rules previously.
