I can do that, if everyone is fine with it, but now I rather discuss if we really need this tag? I´m okay with keeping it, but I don´t know if I could maintain it all the time and as we see, most users aren´t really willing to do it.</p> Guaro1238 /users/546373 tag:danbooru.me,2005:ForumPost/163939 2020-03-11T02:55:06-04:00 2020-03-11T02:55:06-04:00 @evazion: Long sword is fine to me, except I think it... <p><a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link tag-type-0" href="/wiki_pages/long_sword">Long sword</a> is fine to me, except I think it should be called <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link dtext-tag-empty" href="/wiki_pages/longsword" title="This wiki page does not have a tag">longsword</a> to make it clear that it's for European longswords.

But my feelings regarding this tag are much the same now as in <a class="dtext-link dtext-id-link dtext-forum-topic-id-link" href="/forum_topics/12590">topic #12590</a>. <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link tag-type-0" href="/wiki_pages/long_sword">Long_sword</a>, like the other tags for particular types of swords, is used so indiscriminately that it isn't a useful tag. Its description tells us that it is a European sword with a cruciform hilt, which seems simple enough, but the tag is packed with <a class="dtext-link" href="/posts/2613064">Eastern</a> <a class="dtext-link" href="/posts/2672730">swords</a> and <a class="dtext-link" href="/posts/695985">fantasy</a> <a class="dtext-link" href="/posts/3146419">weapons</a>.</p><p>Tags like <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link tag-type-0" href="/wiki_pages/long_sword">long_sword</a> (and <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link tag-type-0" href="/wiki_pages/broadsword">broadsword</a>, and <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link tag-type-0" href="/wiki_pages/claymore_%28sword%29">claymore_(sword)</a>, and <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link tag-type-0" href="/wiki_pages/zweihander">zweihander</a>) exist presumably because there are users here who are interested in historical weapons and want to be able to search for specific types of swords. But it seems like none of the people knowledgeable about these swords is interested in actually cleaning up and maintaining the tags.</p> iridescent_slime /users/438068 tag:danbooru.me,2005:ForumPost/163840 2020-03-08T12:58:25-04:00 2020-03-08T12:58:25-04:00 @Guaro1238: > iridescent_slime said: > > There is no... <blockquote> <p>iridescent_slime said:</p> <p>There is no existing <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link dtext-tag-empty" href="/wiki_pages/longsword" title="This wiki page does not have a tag">longsword</a> -&gt; <a class="dtext-link dtext-wiki-link tag-type-0" href="/wiki_pages/sword">sword</a> implication to remove.
