I wouldn't tag post #812326, post #735408, post #735209 spread_arms though.

What about having spread_arms imply outstretched_arms?
No, they're distinct.
outstretched_arms: Arms out anterior to the body.
spread_arms: Arms out laterally.

Spread_arms has always been more narrowly defined as the arms being stretched out making a T shape with the body, the more recent outstretched_arms tag is by far more general in definition. The broadness of outstretched arms' definition doesn't simply subsume spread_arms, but also \o/. Because spread_arms and \o/ cover fairly specific poses, it would make much more sense that those tags implicate outstretched_arms instead of having one (or both) aliased to outstretched_arms.
That seems about right. At least I couldn't find spread_arms or \o/ that aren't outstretched.
outstretched_arms in any direction
spread_arms, \o/ in a specific direction
There appear to be a fair number of mistagged images then. No implication and do a once-over of images with outstretched_arms seems to be the way to go.
I think the implication spread_arms, \o/ -> outstretched_arms is fine.
I can never remember which the correct tag is for any given arm stretching. Having an umbrella tag for arms stretched in soem direction would be good.
Bump for implication.

Did this.
I'm getting a little confused on the current use of \o/. I thought of it as both arms raised in the air roughly diagonally and straight. I see several posts that have arms bent towards the head (some look more like arms_behind_head to me), which looks very different. How exactly is this tag supposed to be used?
Since the wiki says "arms raised in joy" and the majority of what I see are tagged by one user, all the arms_behind_head posts should be simple mistags. It would be best to contact dean_exia directly about this (if he doesn't already read this thread).

Fixed my previous mistags.
