The bulk update request #10780 is pending approval.

change category implied_necrophilia (9) -> invalid

Reason: "Implied" tags conflict with TWYS and should be discouraged. The only legitimate use case I can see is for cases where necrophilia is stated to have happened but is not visually shown; of the posts currently tagged with implied_necrophilia, only post #3482691 does this.

I think cum in/on a corpse or a character stating intent to have sex with a corpse counts. That said, this tag is small and currently those things get tagged as necrophilia.
This is where my useful opinions end. This isn't my fetish so I don't know if this status quo is fine or if people want a tag for when there's evidence, but the act itself isn't shown.

honestly this is one of the implied one that makes sense, you can have necrophilia implied without it being shown. a corpse with cum on them isn't necrophilia, as sex with the corpse is not shown.

probably stuff in this tag should be Corpse + implied_necrophilia (and snuff if the image fits the criteria for snuff) and not tagged necrophilia. as necrophilia is sexual interactions between a corpse and a living character.

Sexual relations between a character and a corpse.

I've been meaning to clean up the necro tag for awhile anyways maybe I'll try and fix some tagging on it

Cum in/on a corpse perhaps, but stating intent to have sex with a corpse shouldn't count. implied_<x> tags indicate that <x> is/has happened via some visual indication, but without seeing it happen itself. For example, looking at oneself with an expression of confusion/surprise with torn and/or ill-fitting clothing is a visual indication of transformation, even though the transformation itself isn't shown, thus implied_transformation (though yes, the tag is often misused without any visual indication and is just assumed or asserted by the tagger; many implied_* tags have this problem where they get used as pseudo-lore tags when the thing itself can't be tagged). Aside from the meaning of text being considered external information and doesn't fit TWYS (accuracy of a statement isn't assumed, else this isn't a canine penis), stating an intent to do something isn't a visual indication that thing is happening or has happened.

Maybe not 'expressing intent' but I feel like if it's obvious it's about to happen it implies. That scene in the new Nosferatu movie where the guy is obviously getting ready to boink his dead wife as an example.

that might be closer to imminent_necrophilia which also needs to be cleaned up, i'll take a look at it later
