Alias yellow tail to blonde tail

Posted under Tags

On Danbooru, yellow_hair is aliased to blonde_hair, but yellow_tail is still a tag (and blonde_tail doesn't exist). I don't oppose this just for consistency of how the yellow tag is handled in that specific situation.

I've stated my personal opinion on the Discord, which would preferably have more color tags than less without being too pedantic, but I understand that unless those tags are gardened and maintained with regularity, they'll all blend together and become less useful (yellow/blonde, violet/purple, ect).

This goes against convention. If you're serious about separating blonde and yellow, do it for all the yellow_* tags.
Generally, the yellow object color tags are yellow_*, not blonde_*. Blonde_* is only used when referring to hair, and yellow_* tags are far more numerous.

There are 9 pages of yellow_* general tags on danbooru.
On danbooru, the 3 general category blonde tags are blonde eyelashes (deprecated), blonde hair, and blonde pubic hair.
On aibooru, the 2 general category blonde tags are blonde hair and blonde pubic hair.

And as ANJU said, blonde_tail is a new tag.

I would be in favor of separating yellow and blonde since anime characters can have shades of yellow that are not intended to be blonde, but if the consensus is to keep them aliased, then they should all have consistent naming, tails included.

Like I said, blonde hair tags are the exception. What do you think about the other yellow_* object tags besides yellow_tail?
And I think chagnes is right about hairless tails even if none have been posted yet.
