destroying headwear

BUR #21923 has been rejected.

we killed legwear
we killed neckwear
the slaughter must continue

So would we need color tags for every single type of headwear? For example: black tiara (post #6134041), black crown (post #6796566), black helmet (post #6943100), black bandana (post #6800810), black fascinator (post #6035010), black turban (post #6896908), etc. Or are you planning on lumping some of these together?

Is there any reason to not just reverse the alias? Green_headwear to green_hat. What under these tags isn't a hat?

That wouldn't improve granularity, just make the name different.

Green helmets (post #6913020), green tiaras (nsfw post #6349145), green crowns (post #6624423), green bandanas (post #5893227), and green turbans (post #5752650) at least.

I have no issue with granularity, i have an issue with destroying a tag that perumably had an easy alternative to depreciation and larg-scale manual cleanup.

But

Seeing as green tiaras somehow exist I guess all hope of that is lost.

It should be considered having a separate voting for color headwear tags and non-color headwear tags. Particularly the following:

• goggles_on_headwear
• eyewear_on_headwear
• hands_on_headwear
• hair_through_headwear
• horns_through_headwear
• antlers_through_headwear
• head_wings_through_headwear
• cum_on_headwear
• snow_on_headwear
• cum_in_headwear

For these tags the type of headwear involved seems less the important concept than the action or other object impacting the headwear. Forcing specific tags for these is probably unnecessary even if you want greater granularity and simply makes it harder to find the general concept involved. At minimum these things seem like something that would potentially warrant a parent tag even if you do make more specific headwear tags for these.

What GreyOmega4K said. Let's just vote on deprecating the colour headwear tags first.

I would say that the headwear tag is redundant, but the adjectives for headwear are useful. I'm having mixed thoughts on this one.

What kind of technicalities would this change help with? The benefits aren't immediately obvious. Or is this just like how we get rid of pools basically for the hell of it?

There are only so many types of legwear that could realistically exist, but headwear could be anything as long as you can strap it to the head. And you can really only wear one type of headwear at a time. Please, for the sake of not having to create thousands upon thousands of tags, do not do this.

You can say the same about any part of the body. Have you seen the type of bullshit gacha game characters wear? We didn't make topwear or bodywear tags to compensate for that.

You can just put those under already existing tags. There are only like 3-5 different types of legwear while there are hundreds for headwear. Splitting up headwear won't have any utility. Just keep it as it is.

If deprecation of the color headwear tags go through, it would still be a good suggestion to lump some types of headwear tags together. Particularly tiaras, crowns, and other types of similar royal headwear under color tags like yellow_royal_headwear instead of having separate ones. There is already some degree of confusion between the separation of them, so splitting hairs by having independent color tags for each kind may just cause unnecessary headaches.

so.. genuine question. if this BUR goes through, what tags are planned to replace it? would we just be completely abandoning the concept of tagging the color of something worn on the head or...?

i keep thinking "oh, we'll just group all the different varieties of hats (e.g. fur hats, boater hats) into one big [colored]_hat tag"... but that would just be almost the exact same thing we have now.
