BUR #12570 has been rejected.
create alias newhalf -> futa_without_pussy
deprecate newhalf
There is a constant battle on whether or not newhalf should be used for canon tagging and every single argument about it stems from the fact that the way Danbooru uses newhalf is not the way it is commonly defined. Currently, it's defined as one thing, insisted that be defined partially in another way, constantly tag warred over, and a source of confusion. It needs to be changed.
The alias is primarily because it's too large to be renamed. The deprecation can be removed at a later time should we deem that newhalf be a viable tag.
For the granular newhalf tags like newhalf_with_male, if this passes I say we should outright nuke them. They're rare tags and rarely useful, especially ones like futa with newhalf where it's only futa because we can't see the taint on a futa background character.
...there is one confounding factor, and that is the no pussy tag. We already use no testicles for things like intravaginal futanari. We could simply nuke Newhalf and direct people to using no pussy instead. I, personally, do not like this option.
