create implication matryoshka_doll -> doll
Well, the wiki says that they are dolls. And when I see one I also think of a doll.
But I'm no native, so I might be mistaken :>.

I'd say so, Matryoshka dolls are a type of doll and they look like people.

Actually, shouldn't we implicate the rest of the dolls too?
Character doll...probably not. Those things could also apply to this tag: charm_(object).
Mmm... got a point there, I've seen that a few times.
Well, maybe the same goes for daruma doll too, although I've never seen a daruma doll as a charm before.
Well, I think that character "doll" doesn't really refer to "doll" per se. I think it is more a catch all term for any "objectification" of a character and doll might be the most common and applicable to most cases.
But "real" dolls should stay dolls.
Does something like post #1465645 need doll tag?
Matryoshka dolls aren't considered prototypical dolls, i.e. toys hugged and carried around by children. In practice they're more like figurines.

I don't know. I thought you could give some detail if those Matroshka "Dolls" are really considered dolls in Russian.
Because Hillside Moose has a good point here.
Maybe we should do a wiki rewrite for doll then? I almost never tag it unless I see a generic doll, like the ones you see in bedrooms.
And if it's a character doll I usually tag and leave it as that. I did tag it in post #2579394 though, only because I thought it belonged this once.
The real question is whether a user would expect to find matryoshka or daruma or woodoo doll when searching for doll.

Well they are called "dolls" in Russian as well, but I never saw a child to use one as a toy. Those are more like souvenirs.
The tag implication matryoshka_doll -> doll has been rejected.
