Just think about we can add some child tags for skirt lift/dress lift to differentiate some common and special patterns.
There are many posts with those patterns, but often without any lift tag. In other words, no tags can cover those types at all.
And I think the scope of skirt lift/dress lift (also skirt flip/dress flip) is too broad, not very useful.
I'm not at all opposed to creating new tags as required, but there has to be some kind of reasonable limit to how specifically we tag all the different variations on how clothes hang from the body. Otherwise we run into the problem of diminishing returns as it gets harder for uploaders to objectively determine exactly which tag to use for any given image, and fewer users will have a use for tags as they get progressively narrower.
For comparison, we have six different tags for breast size and six different tags for hair length, which is more than adequate for quantifying these things. On the other hand, in topic #16431 you proposed ten new classes of tags for skirts and dresses, and now you're adding even more suggestions. This is complete overkill. At most, I can see some value in tags for skirts that flare out or are tucked in along the hem, and a single tag for skirts and dresses stretched out into a circle seems fine. But tagging the precise angle or the shape made by a windblown skirt is simply not necessary.
Or we can make floating clothes more useful.
Floating_clothes is a vague and inconsistently-used tag that we could probably do without. Some of the earliest uses of this tag were for things like garments floating on water or levitating without any connection to the body, which contrasts with whatever you've been using the tag for. It should probably be removed from all dress_lift and skirt_lift posts if not nuked altogether, since we don't need a tag that ends up being largely redundant to a ~dress_lift ~skirt_lift search.
Then we can also consider some directional lift like front lift , back lift , side lift .
Again, probably not necessary. We don't tag the direction in which hair gets blown by the wind either, and I can't imagine why this would be more important than that, considering that most character art is focused on heads and faces rather than skirts.
