Species listing

So after the Bridlewood Spog episode, I see that Pillbug needs a species tag.

EDIT:And back to tags that need to be species and imply Pokemon, here is Koraidon.
(And he should imply legendary Pokemon too!)

@Toastypk
Done.

Also I always wonder why kind of species could be Woe Begone and other similar characters like his father and the witch that cursed him.

@Background Pony #6EB7
Done.

ornithian <=> parrot pirates -> anthro, bird

Thanks for your time.

Don’t forget the Venus Flytrap!

@wownamesarehard
Add those two tags as implication for both ornithian and parrot pirates. :)

@Toastypk
Made Venus Flytrap a species tag. :)

@icicle wicicle 1517, @MaresFillies
shoulder angel should not imply devil, and
shoulder devil should not imply angel

Should humanoid be considered a species tag?

It already implies taur but shouldn’t ponytaur be brown? As well as imply pony?

@Background Pony #3C3A
Removed those implications.

@wownamesarehard
Made humanoid a species. I agree it could be a species.

@☬ ᏝᏆᏁᏨᎾᏝᏁᏰᏒᎬᎳᏕᎿᎬᏒᎱᎯᏁ ☬
Added an implication of pony and made ponytaur a species tag.

Let me know if there is any other changes to be made. :)

That looks good. Thank you :)

@☬ ᏝᏆᏁᏨᎾᏝᏁᏰᏒᎬᎳᏕᎿᎬᏒᎱᎯᏁ ☬, @MaresFillies
I don’t think it should imply pony. That tag is for the body shape of a pony, and its description specifically excludes semi-anthro and anthro. I think taur and pony are mutually exclusive (unless, of course, a pony and a taur are both in the image).

@Background Pony #3C3A
You make a great point. @MaresFillies, maybe just remove the pony implication please? Everything else is fine :)

Thanks :3

I have another Pokemon that’s not a species tag- Shadow Lugia!
Now, I know it’s not a unique Pokemon, just a form, but I think it counts. Same with Hisuian Growlithe.

If we have now one of plant species tag colored brown, how about other plant species?

It’s not really a species tag, but feral is getting mis-tagged on too many images as if it were, and could use a definition of some sort to potentially slightly mitigate tagging mistakes.

@Brokedownandmadeone
I always thought just “pony” sufficed for the four legged basic pony form. I don’t think it it needs that tag too.

@Toastypk
That’s exactly the issue I’m referring to. Sentient ponies (and probably others like Zebras) are getting tagged with that.

@Brokedownandmadeone
Yeah, I had a feeling.
I know a furry site does that, but it doesn’t really work the same for here. Even for like, creatures like Winona or Angel which would fit that bill. How would that even be extended to? Hydras? Where would it stop?

Maybe there should a way to discourage that tag.

Ooh! Here’s an image which really does fit the bill. I like this definition of the word. Like a feral, savage nature.

I think it’s a bit of a culture clash between bronies and the larger furry community. On furry sites, anthro characters are the assumed default, so artists have to specify when they’re deviating from that style. For whatever reason, they settled on “feral” as the term for quadrupedal, minimally anthropormorphized characters. (Which would encompass most of the canon MLP characters.) But on MLP sites, quadrupedal show-style ponies are the assumed default, so we took too long coming up with a term for it, thinking it would be enough to just tag “anthro” and “humanized” as deviations from the norm. IIRC, the site staff and general userbase here rejected having a specific tag for show-style characters until it became obvious that Equestria Girls was going to be a major part of the franchise and not just a passing fad.

One awkward effect of our current jerry-rigged approach is that “pony” is technically a body-form tag (as in, it signifies that a character is not anthro or humanized) rather than a species tag, but it still only applies to ponies as a species. So we still don’t have any tag to specify when other quadrupeds from the show (zebras, changelings, griffons, etc.) are drawn in a non-anthro, non-humanized style.

@radpanic
I figure either anthro tag yes or no.
Maybe it doesn’t need one.

fidough, and imply pokémon

@Background Pony #3C3A
Added that implication. :) Thanks!

Removed the pony implication from the ponytaur tag. :)
