copyright request tag

B-b-b-but I spent so much time tagging all these...
Okay, whatever. It is reasonable after all. Purge them, I'll get over it ._.

We tried to nuke it so we could use it how one would expect it to be used but the tag edit never went through. I'll ask jxh to try again once Hijiribe's back up.

Just thought I'd bump this thread now that mass edits work.

Yeah I was about to do the same.

So we're getting rid of which?

character_request
copyright_request
artist_request

?

What about
annotation_request
collaboration_request

As far as I'm aware, the ones that MagicalAsparagus spammed were copyright_request, artist_request, and tagme. I don't believe the others were touched.

imho, these are still useful and the population is too low to be threatening. however i'll add tagme for annihilation.

Why would we need to get rid of any of these tags? What about partially tagged images where each and every character/copyright/artist is not yet known?

Copyright_request is 99.999% a duplicate of copytags:0

Character probably shouldn't be purged because it's not really a replication of anything. Artist is somewhere in the middle.

If you are going to purge tagme as well I suggest creating a thread for this purpose. Spamming aside, I put tagme on posts that I really don't know how to tag when I do it manually.

When I don't know how to tag some specific thing I like to put an X_request tag on the post, where X is what I don't know how to tag. e.g. food_request, flag_request, bird_request, whatever. Just tagme doesn't tell people specifically what needs to be tagged so it's less likely to get them to do anything.

Well this discussion really doesn't seem to be settled...

I'm also iffy on open-ended *_request tags, because there's no standardization them and the only thing worse than an untagged fruit is 5 different tags about untagged fruit. Probably better to drop a comment.

Soooo, are we purging anything or what?

mass update copyright_request -> -copyright_request
mass update artist_request -> -artist_request
mass update tagme -> -tagme
