Danbooru

Impossible-to-distinguish Tag Replacement

Posted under Tags

BUR #7843 has been approved by @evazion.

create alias pointe_shoes -> ballet_slippers

The "pointe_shoes" tag is currently maintained by one user and one user only. On top of this, the way the wiki is worded makes it impossible to actually identify any actual instances in an image. To top it all off, the "ballet_slippers" tag is already more than enough to cover what this tag is supposedly meant to cover.

They are legitimately exclusive terms with the distinction being pointe will generally have blunt tips, difference best observed in post #4723080.

In most posts however it is tagged depending on the type of dance routine the anime girl is performing.

As this stuff is beyond the basic level of danbooru I'm not against this convenient vulgarization, considering otherwise we'd add an extra tag (ballet shoes) or keep making distinctions most people are foreign with.

I think en pointe should probably be nuked. It's a needlessly specific version of tiptoes and many images tagged with it don't follow its own wiki.

I do seriously think this is all part of a fetish tag series, given that the same user also made the wiki and tag for and has been almost solely responsible for the tags leotard peek, leotard tug, toe shoes, snap crotch, ballet dress, figure skating dress, evening gloves, ballet leotard, and gymnast leotard.
