Meh vote because I'm not particularly enthused about the glistening_* tags

I'd personally prefer we get rid of all of the glistening tags (as well as light & dark, but that's a discussion for a different topic)

what's wrong with glistening?

I like shiny things :(

It's be fine if they were kept to things with a wet-like reflective sparkly sheen, but they're all too often used on things that are simply lit/shaded or have a single highlight stroke.

It's applied very inconsistently on anything that's remotely lit up

Okay, after checking these, I see what you mean. Bit of shading or sunlight on the body part -> glistening?
Plus some overlap with metallic_* and wet. +1 for getting rid of these.

I wonder if we should expand the sparkling_* group? That might work for the 'shiny' niche.

As for the rest of the implications...
- How does pointed tail differ from spade tail? The former is more ^ or ▲ than spade? Needs a wiki entry. There's currently a lot of spades in there.
- Is tail armor really guaranteed to include a tail? What if it's, let's say, a smithy with some tail armor on wall? Should that not be tagged as tail armor? Wiki currently states that the armor should be worn, but...

Removed for now, along with glistening_tail.

tail_clothing and tail_accessory imply tail, so...

I think sparkling_* should remain limited to things with actual sparkles. There's also iridescent. Maybe glossy_* for more general shiny gloss?

hmmm... actually, yeah.

while doing my current tag project I've actually noticed that there are a few other <quality>_<body_part>-type tags that seem kind of over-/mistagged as well.

maybe we could just keeping glistening around on its own and alias away all the subtags, it'd make it a hellalalot easier to clean.
