Alias: tongue_out -> tongue

tongue_out -> tongue (or vice versa)

It's been implicated before, but I'm not really seeing any difference between the two, and the wikis read pretty much exactly the same, so unless we want to redefine the tags, I think they should be merged.

You can see a tongue that is still inside a mouth. post #1190970
The tongue wiki is a little too strictly defined.

I thought the original thread said something about that not being useful, but alright, that's how I've always used them as well. I'll just edit the tongue wiki then.

I don't remember which thread it was (or what I even said in it), but yes, there's a lot of overlap. Very few tongue-in-mouth images will be worth tagging tongue for, unless it's a detailed close-up. I would only tag tongue while in mouth in a very small number of cases.

It's the sort of situation where I'd prefer one tag but there are just enough exceptions to make that somewhat awkward.

tongue_out is a bit less awkward-looking than tongue_in_mouth (in any mouth, or own mouth?), but I could also see it being used in, say, tongue_out -:p searches, since there are many facial expressions that use the tongue.

I'm still not sure if I like using tongue_out on images where the mouth is open wide and the tongue's in midair, but nebulously past the lips.
