Not to defend subpar smut, but this has got to be one of the most ridiculous flag reasons ever. If you feel that an uploader neglected an essential tag, just add the damn tag yourself.
Lately it seems there's a tendency to flag for reasons that have nothing to do with the actual image but refer to incorrect tagging. Apparently it's not the same guy doing these flags every time but it's bizarre. There's been at least three in the past couple of days alone.
Are they completely skipping over the help text on the flagging box? Do they not know "flag" is short for "flag for deletion," and think it's just a way to notify a moderator? or does the help text need to be edited to inform them that it's possible to change the tags of a post after it's already uploaded, and "wrong tags" isn't a valid flag reason? Someone who can see flagger names should ask these users about it, so we can adjust things to avoid this problem in the future.
I'm pretty sure we don't flag images for incorrect tags.

I imagine that the user was confused about how to fix the tags, and so chose to flag the image as apparently the correct action to rectify that. :facepalm:

One mistake is not vandalism. Just send a PM, we all gotta learn.
Said user also seems to think that having an artist self-insert original character in an image justifies going in the reason of a flag (post #2570536, which definitely deserves to be reapproved imo - although actually I'd just reapprove the lot except for post #2159660, and that one not only because of the removal of the name of the original artist)

I'm iffy on this, I think I'd need to know more about the history of the image. It looks like the artist commissioned another artist to draw their OC they normally draw themselves.
You may notice, post #2159660 was uploaded on 2015-10-26, whereas the Pixiv post the source was changed to is March 7, 2016.
@忍猫 This doesn't seem to be legitimately "detexted" or having a third-party source, edit, or watermark. As they were done by the commissioner, I'd maybe call the changes second-party (although they may have been also done by the artist at the commissioner's request?). Anyway they didn't make an "edit" to the image considering it was uploaded to Pixiv after it was uploaded here. It looks to be that both the post and it's parent are legitimate versions, just that the actual artist decided to upload their version as well. For that reason I am going to remove the source, third-party tags, and approve the post. And also, notice post #2159660 is significantly better quality.
@RaisingK I'll assume that your change of the source was just part of an automated function, but feel free to weigh in if not.
I'd like to ask @fajarmf94, can you explain how you got this picture perhaps? Was it directly sent to you and did it already have your logos on it? If you didn't get it directly did you download it from one of Ookamiura Aoi's public galleries? Thanks if you can help resolve the question here.

I apologise for getting carried away with flag reasons that probably weren't justified. The fansub watermark on post #2159660 seemed to be third-party and the signature from post #3250691 was removed for that image as well, so if it wouldn't get the third-party detexted tag it may get the textless tag if that applies.

Well, it was, but since I'm here anyway: if you add the wrong (...mode=medium...) kind of link, the source is changed to the direct link if there's a match (and sometimes if there isn't, depending on the dimensions of the image). If a matching pixiv source is removed, the source is added back.
A lot of invalid and absolutely absurd flags of user:chinatsu status:flagged the past day or two.

Eeeh, a lot of those images are really rough, and it's debatable whether christina guo's emoji art is appropriate for Danbooru. You'd have been better off gauging people's reactions by uploading one or two of them through the queue first, rather than just dumping them all at once like that. Not the kind of thing I would flag myself, but the scores on those posts pretty much speak for themselves.

post #2428340 - I don't think a fat character is flagworthy?
Another "loli" flag.
