Remember the Danbooru tagging axiom: "Tag based on what you see, not based on what you know."

I can only work with the information I have at the time.

General: loli(Version 33)

This tag implies sexually explicit or suggestive (not safe for work) art works of girls who are or appear to be preadolescent. Please note it doesn't matter whether the character is canonically of age -- if they look like kids, they are loli for the purpose of tagging.

That's a bit unfair considering you removed the ambiguity after he brought it up. Even with the "canonical doesn't matter" bit, I can see why someone would be unsure with the "who are" clause present.

But you're correct to remove that part, as it never should have been there.

Yes, I did edit that after the fact.

My apologies, Scarlet200%.

It's not at all uncommon for artists to up-age characters for fanart, which would negate the loli tag on such images even if the character is "canonically" a sixth-grade primary-schooler.

For that, and other reasons, knowledge of canonical character ages and such ("metaknowledge") does not come into play when tagging, except in some cases.

post #239098 and post #312022 - Both have some breasts and bra, so I removed the loli tag. Ok?

Those aren't the only criteria to go on, but in this case, the other visible elements - head size vs. torso, torso size vs. limbs, overall body size in comparison to other characters in the image - it doesn't qualify as loli. So, yeah, loli tag should stay removed.

The presence of breasts (especially small ones, such as those) does not invalidate the loli theme.

randoseru covered in kiddy kitsch, band-aid on knee (common loli fashion accessories, both), school in backdrop, no other distinguishing features against the loli tag. That's, at minimum lazy-ass count, three to one against removing the tag.
