While searching for half_lotus_position, I stumbled upon a large number of post (especially post of Raiden Shogun) was incorrectly labeled as such, when they are not actually half_lotus_position.
The wiki clearly states half_lotus_position refers to hanka fuza (半跏趺坐), which requires one foot placed on the opposite thigh (with the sole facing upward), while the other foot is tucked underneath the opposite leg.
But there is a similar but seperate sitting called hanka iza (半跏倚坐), in which one leg hangs down, the other leg bent and foot resting on the opposite knee or thigh (kinda like figure_four_sitting). Currently, it seems hanka iza dont have its own tag, and post of it have been commonly mistagged as half_lotus_position (some are also mistagged as a full lotus_position like post #11107743).
As for Raiden Shogun's iconic sitting posture, it's not any standard posture at all. Although it looks close to hanka iza, her foot is under her thigh. Probably an adaptive creation of miHoYo.
So, should we create separate new tags for these defferent sitting postures? Or include their concept into an existing tag, like they are now in half_lotus_position? In that case, we should modify the half_lotus_position wiki definition.
