Regarding "hair_intakes" and "curtained_hair"

Posted under General

On the hair_intakes wiki page, the following sentence appears in the “see also” section:

“curtained hair — when the hair intakes originate from the scalp and not from other hair.”

This seems to imply that when the hair in curtained_hair arches upward and forms twin forward-facing scoops at its base, it would also qualify as hair_intakes.
However, after discussing this with NiceLittleDan via Messages (many thanks for the time and patience), we both think that the concept of hair_intakes should not include curtained_hair.

For me, based on this distinction, only hair that arches upward between other strands of hair (rather than directly from the hairline), forming a scoop-like shape, should be considered hair intakes
________________________________________________________________________________
Accordingly, I am planning to:

1. Perform mass gardening on the hair_intakes tag by adding the curtained hair tag to posts where appropriate, and removing hair_intakes tag from those posts (If no “standard” hair_intakes are present)
2. Edit the description about curtained hair in the hair intakes wiki page, and move the description from "see also" section to the main definition.
(many thanks for the suggestions provided by Maiguel !)

Original description:
“when the hair intakes originate from the scalp and not from other hair”

Proposed revision:
“when the forward-facing scoops originate from the scalp near hairline and not between other hair strands, use curtained hair instead of hair_intakes

What are your thoughts on this approach?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Agree with this except the wiki edit, the proposed revision should be included in the main definition (at the top), not in the section "See also" because it's an important distinction

Maybe is just me, but would be better to rephrase the part "...and not other hair..." as "...and not between other hair strands..."?

Thank you very much for the advice!
I have incorporated your suggestion into the original forum post and plan to update the wiki within the next 1~2 days. :)
