Tag implication: oni_horns -> horns

Posted under Tags

I'd say oni_horns should be exclusively used for one specific style of horns.

We shouldn't tag all horns oni_horns just because the character happens to be an oni.
Tagging all of them would just make oni horns be a redundant copy of horns + oni.

We don't even tag many of the characters oni, just like we don't tag vampire if the only indication is the canon.
All according to "tag what you see".

BTW, we have a horns tag and a horn (singular) tag.

The most stereotypical oni horns that I'm familiar with are those that are like lum's. Not sure if those are common on other types of monster/demon characters, but if we can settle on one style that would be the style probably best to go with.

As for the fleshy kind, might be worthwhile spinning those off into their own tag. It is a common enough horn style.

The former (like Lum) would be Type B in the chart post #1285148, and the latter (fleshy) Type A. But they are rather distinct from each other so I could get behind separate tags if we can decide on something.

It shouldn't be necessary to create a single_oni_horn tag when the horn/single_horn tag can simply be used in conjunction with the oni_horns tag. One tag that defines the type of horn and the other that defines the quantity of horns.
