BUR #8653 has been approved by @Hillside_Moose.

create alias multiple_fellatio -> cooperative_fellatio

The term multiple_fellatio is confusing and not clear at face value. It more or less forces a person to go to the wiki to get the exact meaning. The term doesn't inherently mean "2+ characters fellating the same penis". Considering "fellatio" is just a fancy word for "blowjob" the term means, put simply, "multiple blowjobs". Well in an image with 1 character sucking 2 dicks there are multiple blowjobs. In an image where 2 characters are giving 2 separate blowjobs there are multiple blowjobs. Hell if you want to get REALLY crazy in an image where 2 characters are sucking their owns dicks there are multiple blowjobs. Realistically this tag could apply to ANY of those situations...only with the help of the wiki can one glean exactly which one it's supposed to be used on. The tag is frankly terrible.

I propose collaborative_fellatio because that term is so much clearer. To have a collaboration you need 2+ characters so it fits the current definition of multiple_fellatio perfectly...and it can't be reasonably confused with the other situations I already described above.

And btw I also think double_fellatio is pretty unclear as well, but I'm not so sure of a better tag to use for that one.

Yeah, I always have to double check which tag is which because both "multiple fellatio" and "double fellatio" sound like they could mean what the other tag actually means.
I'm not really sure of a better term though, bar "multiple_penises_fellatio" which sounds and looks clunky as hell.

While I do agree that the tag needs to be changed, I'm personally not too fond of either cooperative or collaborative to be brutally honest, they sound so clinical and almost like business speak.
It's like one step away from synergistic_fellatio

I would like to propose shared_fellatio. I think that shared is a simpler word that still gets the message across.
And it would also fit within the current group of shared_* tags like shared_umbrella and shared_blanket

Except...who is sharing what? Wouldn't fellatio given by one person to two penises be "shared"? As in they are both sharing one blowjob. Honestly this is what I would actually think of off the top of my head if you said "shared" blowjob. As in there is a singular blowjob and it's being shared amongst multiple people. I wouldn't think of 2+ people giving a blowjob to one dick. This is the entire cux of the issue is that we (presumably) want a term that is instantly recognizable in its meaning. Using "shared" would be going back to square 1 imo.

The word "team" makes it sounds like a giant group of people are servicing one dick when in reality 99% of posts are just 2 people jerking off 1 dick. Also it sounds a bit weird on my ears. Almost like it's a tag for a team named "handjob"...so instead of "Team Yell" from Pokemon it's "Team Handjob".

Group handjob, as nonamethanks said, is ambiguous. The tag "group_sex" doesn't even mean a group all having sex with 1 person it just means that there is a group and any combination of sexual activity is happening. So again that doesn't get across the meaning that multiple people are servicing one dick very effectively.

Yeah that's my issue with it too. team fellatio just sounds weird as hell.
