Animal noses

Posted under Tags

BUR #46240 has been rejected.

create implication dog_nose -> animal_nose
create implication cat_nose -> animal_nose
create implication pig_nose -> animal_nose
create implication raccoon_nose -> animal_nose
create implication rabbit_nose -> animal_nose
create implication mouse_nose -> animal_nose

I'm not all that certain some of these (besides pig nose) are worth distinguishing from a generic animal nose, but here's a vote to just imply them all to animal nose. Can do votes to alias some of them otherwise.

Should these really be used on furry or no humans posts? Dog is particularly bad about having stuff like post #9598041 and post #7784037 in it.

I vote alias with the exception of pig nose which seems distinct. The rest feels like canon-tagging with no real meaningful difference. post #9250340, post #4720800, post #1092672, and post #4760016 are all the same style of nose the only difference being the species the character is supposed to be.

I will say that I really don't like it on no humans. There's no reason to be tagging animal nose on an actual animal.

I'm a lot less bothered by it on furry art - furry makes up a significant portion of the tag and I often use an animal nose as a particular factor in judging if something should be tagged as such - not always, to be clear, but often when a character is given an animal nose it tends to bump their appearance further from "human with animal ears" and closer to furry: post #9897649, post #9883866, post #9775509 for some examples of what I mean. Non-furry animal noses are generally the exceptions, as the presence of a (real) animal nose tends to go hand-in-hand with a more animalistic facial structure, whereas the exceptions are things like post #608566 or post #203257 where the face is still otherwise humanoid, often with a human nose bridge or extra ears.
