Pointless Pools

pool #2562 (Sugar & Spice)
Again, girly sexy females is utterly redundant with what is already danbooru's primary topic. They're litterally everywhere. Doesn't make sense to have a pool where you can throw several thousands of posts, and plenty of contents added by the OP aren't even that "extreme".

Oh jesus, that pool. I tried to make sense of what it was actually supposed to cover a few days ago. Got nowhere. KILL IT

Just to throw in my two cents, is Perfect Ass really the best name? To me at least, Dat Ass! implies tabletop booty, as the kids say, which is demonstrated by the pool discription. Perfect Ass however implies, again to me, any well drawn butt. Frankly being an ass man I don't care which way this pool is taken, I just think that the discription and title should line up better.

We could time travel a couple decades earlier in pop culture and call it "Baby Got Back" or something like that.

Maybe, if the suspision that Dat Ass! is only a problem because it's contemporary is true. I mean it's clearly not any less stupid, and really I question if there could be anything realative to this theme that's any better. In it's favor though it would share a name with a masterwork, a piece of art in the truest sense.

Oh yes, it's been irking me too. I'd gladly kill it, but I want to give a chance for somebody to speak up if there's a good reason.

I think the core concept of the pool has merit, it just needs a shorter wiki and stricter definition.
Perhaps a different title too: Overly Girly.
Something like "a notable amount of ribbons, lace, stuffed animals, makeup, pink and pastel colors, etc"

I've been trying to clean this up, removing things that just plain don't belong like post #87085 (not girly) and post #325857 (not sexy), but it's been tough since the "Apply tag script" somehow doesn't seem to work, so I have to go in the post page and manually do -pool:2562.

Have you tried the "Delete Mode" checkbox on the pool's page?

That works, but doesn't allow for searching to more quickly find the ones that are likely to not belong in the pool.

This.

But I agree with Blossop, restricting the idea to "extremely girly girl" instead of "girly girl" might work... (something like post #546522 level). I'd say letting this live for a while after re-definition and see.

As for the Perfect Ass pool, I'd prefer to include any well drawn buttocks and at least big enough that actually look good on a normal girl, also it must be the focus of the image. Not only horrendous large ones, not nice ass you only happen to spot.

I always thought Dat Ass had considerable overlap with Squeezable X.

I think Perfect Ass should be about well-drawn, realistic buttocks, not huge, surreal asses you don't see often in real life.

Squeezable X is not only about asses, but also breasts, thighs, etc. I'm guessing it's ok for them to stay as pools.

pool #903 - Disgustingly Adorable
This has gone from "disgustingly adorable" to "slightly cute." This either needs a serious cleaning or complete deletion.

pool #2187 - Women in Suits
Isn't this just suit + female?

Cleaning would be the way to go IMO.

Seems totally pointless ya.

Use of the female tag is verboten. I do think the pool should be a tag though, since most posts under suit are male.

Wouldn't adding -male cover it then?

suit -male shaves off some of the chaff, but you still get many results where the girl is wearing a dress and the guy is wearing a suit.

Seems like we need a pantsuit tag. Possibly also skirtsuit

No it wouldn't, as male should be tagged on posts with males only. Examples would be posts that have both males and females such as post #650891 and post #814300.

As a tag, suit_(female) or something along those lines then? Not sure exactly what else to call it, but if a tag is used instead, it should be implicated to suit.

Women's formal suits have a name, Pantsuits.

Versions with skirts are frequently called Skirtsuits.
