From what I recall the "magic" of it (and solo male and solo futa) is that they were strictly for NSFW images, but you could of course get the same effect just by adding "-safe" to "solo, female".

Incidentally, I just checked by searching for "solo female, -solo" and "solo female, -female" and found only 54 images in the first and 15 images in the second category (embarrassingly, two of those were images I uploaded myself), so it looks surprisingly practical to go through and fix all of those.

Done, done, done and done. I don't like having solo female as it is indeed pretty redundant but that's nearly 100k images with it, and I bet a good chunk of them don't have the individual ones.

Two issues today. One is, surprise surprise, a shipping tag: Zecobloom, for Zecora + Apple Bloom (although several of the images tagged such don't seem to be shipping at all).

The other is the character tags for Shimmy Shake and Lighthoof from the episode 2, 4, 6, Greaaat, which have not yet been recategorized into the standard "character:" format and color.

EDIT: Also, solo female should probably imply solo and female, unless you're planning on canning it for being redundant with solo, female.

Last three have been addressed now, thanks.

artist:baron-engel and artist:baron engel refer to the same person. The latter has 900 times more images than the former, so…

Another one: Shining Chrysalis, for Shining Armor + Queen Chrysalis

Found another shipping tag: Cadalis, for Cadance + Queen Chrysalis

This is true, but at the same time it feels like it might be useful to have tags for at least the more common poly ships, like the CMC with each other. Of course, then you would have the task of figuring out which are the "more common" poly ships and which aren't.

I've done all the pairs of your last two posts, and skipped the polyamory ones.

For those, I'm currently wondering if it's worth making a tag for each one that pops up, or it would just be better to tag every pair in a picture plus a "polyamory" tag. Once we had a lot of pairs we would have all the building blocks necessary and not need to make new ones.

Another ship today: Raricora, Rarity + Zecora.

Some more ships:

* Shininglestia (Shining Armor + Celestia)
* Shiningluna (Shining Armor + Luna)
* Shininglunacadancelestia (Someone gave up…Shining Armor + Luna + Cadance + Celestia)
* Shintrix (Shining Armor + Trixie)
* Shidancie (Shining Armor + Trixie + Cadance)
* Tridance (Trixie + Cadance)
* Twixdance (Twilight Sparkle + Trixie + Cadance)
* Twidance (Twilight Sparkle + Cadance)
* Twiswirl (Twilight Sparkle + Starswirl)
* Silverbelle (Silver Spoon + Sweetie Belle)
* Babstwist (Babs Seed + Twist)
* Feathertiara (Featherweight + Diamond Tiara)
* Rumbloo (Rumble + Scootaloo)
* Silversnips (Silver Spoon + Snips)
* Sweetiesqueak (Sweetie Belle + Pipsqueak)
* Tenderbloom (Tender Taps + Apple Bloom)

Found another one today, coco belle, Coco Pommel + Sweetie Belle.

Or, actually, oc:cocobot + Sweetie Belle, since oc:cocobot is just robotic Coco Pommel. This seems odd to me since other X bot characters are considered to be Xbot, e.g. sweetie bot. Perhaps the oc:cocobot, cocobot, and coco bot tags (all of which do exist) should be merged into the cocobot tag?

I was also wondering, relatedly, how species tagging for robotic characters should be handled. Should they be tagged as "species:pony" "species:unicorn" etc. in line with their appearance and also robot, or just as robots? Should robots be considered a species similar to anthro? It seems like there is some ground for thinking about these things…

Even more shipping tags, as per the usual:

* Scootabloom (Scootaloo + Apple Bloom)
* Sweetiebloom (Sweetie Belle + Apple Bloom)
* Sweetiebloomaloo (Sweetie Belle + Apple Bloom + Scootaloo)

On the last note, there is a separate tag, cmc threesome, which seems to be mostly identical to the last tag? Maybe it should be removed or aliased?

Something similar applies to the tags crab apple and crabapple, although in this case the latter is a strict subset of the former and should probably just be removed.

@Workable Goblin
Done!

Wow, another shipping tag! Luslus (Gallus + Ocellus)

@Workable Goblin
Done!

Only one shipping tag to report today: Twisalis (Twilight Sparkle + Queen Chrysalis)

@Workable Goblin
Added! With regards to Somnabula x Stygian, I just went with both, since from a quick scan that's the only image anywhere with either one anyway.

I have several more shipping tags to report.

* Fleurdance (Fleur-de-Lis + Cadance)
* Fleurity (Fleur-de-Lis + Rarity)
* Fleuripants (Fleur-de-Lis + Rarity + Fancy Pants)
* Sweetielis (Sweetie Belle + Fleur-de-Lis)
* Raribelle (Rarity + Sweetie Belle)
* Raridance (Rarity + Cadance)
* Fleuridance (Fleur-de-Lis + Rarity + Cadance)
* Somnygian (Somnambula + Stygian)

Actually there's two possible variants on the last one, Somnygian and Stynambula, but they both refer to the same ship and the same (single) image, so they should probably be aliased or a choice should be made about which one to prefer.

@Workable Goblin
Added!

The tag "lamia" should be refactored to "species:lamia," consistent with other species tags.

@Workable Goblin
I fixed up all the ship tags listed here. and in @Workable Goblin. Once again, thanks for the report and please let us know if you find more!

Also, I found another shipping tag to change: Emberspike (Ember + Spike, as if that wasn't obvious)

Done, sci-fi and sci fi, which existed. There's gonna be a lot of stuff like this that will feel nice to clean up.

Just yesterday I discovered how many ways people had used for a sideways look.

I'd like to request that "sci-fi" (a tag which does not actually exist) be aliased to "science fiction" (which does exist). The terms are, after all, largely synonymous.
