Implicating art_collab → artist_collaboration
Link to implication

Reason:

So 10 days ago (on "Sep 18, 2019") art_collab, art_collaboration, multi_artist, multi-artist, and multiple_artists were all aliased to collaboration with alias "Reason" fields blank.
(and with NO associated forum link in "Forum Post" fields)

I suggest that those artist tags art_collab, art_collaboration, multi_artist, multi-artist, and multiple_artists no longer alias to collaboration,
but IMPLY to artist_collaboration. (with artist_collaboration maybe implying to collaboration)

collaboration wiki says:

General: collaboration

Images or Animations that were created, or worked on, by two or more Artists.

This can also apply to the image itself. If the characters are working together (in collaboration), this is a valid tag.

In my opinion, that is lumping two different types of collaboration together. (my objection is aliasing away a separate artist_collab* tag)

In my opinion,
there should be two (or 3) main collab tags:
artist_collaboration
character_collaboration
(and maybe collaboration).

If we keep plain collaboration as a tag (and don't disambiguate it to collaboration_(disambiguation)),
then both artist_collaboration and character_collaboration could imply to collaboration.

EDIT: And if a character_collaboration tag is ok,
then MAYBE
collaborative_fellatio (2058 posts)
collaborative_titfuck (336 posts)
collaborative_footjob (97 posts)
collaborative_handjob (60 posts)
collaborative_breastfeeding (35 posts)
and collaborative_cunnilingus (35 posts)
could imply to character_collaboration.

EDIT: The tag implication art_collab -> artist_collaboration (forum #278882) has been rejected by @gattonero2001.

I agree in that collab should be disambiguated, but don't agree in the individual tags you suggested.

What is character collaboration supposed to be? A crossover? Fanart of a character drawn by someone other than their owner/particular artist? That is so incredibly vague that imho it wouldn't be practical to have as a tag. It needs a better, more specific name.

I wouldn't mind making the artist collab the tag for artwork collabs, however

I think they are trying to suggest that all of those collaborative action tags should be based under a tag called character_collaboration. They also surmise that character_collaboration and artist_collaboration could also imply another base tag collaboration if that tag isn't disambiguated.

Firstly I'd like to apologize for making an implication suggestion of -> artist_collaboration
when i should have made an alias suggestion (alias to -> artist_collaboration or -> artist_collab)

(it was around midnight so i should have just gone to sleep and made a better post in the morning)

Hoping aliases for multi_artist, multi-artist, and multiple_artists
can all be updated so they alias to artist_collaboration (or -> 'artist_collab')

Thank you. Glad you "wouldn't mind making the artist collab the tag for artwork collabs".

My main objection was there not being a tag specifically for artist collabs,
so figuring out an umbrella tag for "characters are working together" (see below)
can be figured out later.

* * * section: character stuff (can be figure out later)

The collaboration wiki says:

Images or Animations that were created, or worked on, by two or more Artists.
This can also apply to the image itself. If the characters are working together (in collaboration), this is a valid tag.

So the character_collaboration tag i suggested would be for when "characters are working together (in collaboration)"

if consensus is character_collaboration is bad tag,
then what would be a good umbrella tag for "characters are working together (in collaboration)"?
(examples of characters working together from start of thread:
collaborative_fellatio
to collaborative_cunnilingus )
