Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions
The tag implication #67101 winter_coat -> coat is pending approval.
Reason: No implication created yet, but even the coat wiki says that winter coats count as... well, coats.
(Also winter coat, as stated in its wiki, refers to clothing and not to winter fur)
"Winter coat" is too ambiguous and should be disambiguated, IMO. It's too easy for people to use it thinking it's for an animal's winter_pelt without looking at the wiki to see it's not, making this implication cause more mistags that would need cleaning.
This has been previously rejected twice as @Watsit has linked.
There was also some discussion on bringing back *_pelt on topic #42579, but it went nowhere.
I can't argue that people would probably continue to use winter_coat thinking it refers to the pelt instead of the clothing. However, from those old topics I think some of those suggestions would be worth doing. So we could:
Alias winter_coat to a new tag like winter_coat_(disambiguation)
Or/And
Create two new tags called winter_coat_(clothing) and winter_coat_(pelt)
I was also going to suggest what people already said of aliasing winter_pelt to winter_fur, but there seems to be a forgotten old bulk request about that pending.... since a year ago.
Either way something should be done to not have an abstract tag hanging around :/
