New general tags

Posted under General

I propose 3 new general tags and wonder if there's any objection/discussion:

  • light_smile - where as the mouth is almost a straight line, but you can tell the character is smiling because the atmosphere and expression is light, calming, and/or warm.

It may be silly to make this thread, but I'm tired with people going around removing all the new tags that have only 1 post, claiming it's not "official". It's fine if they replace it with the "corrected term" used on danbooru, but only removal would result in non-specific tagging. Isn't it fine to have unpopular tag? At least it would be easier to find those specific image.

Sorry for the rant, just want to say this somewhere.

The issue, I think, is more that without some sort of notification for new tags, you're relying on people to just happen to notice a new tag being formed, whereas making a forum post guarantees that the more active members of Danbooru will know about the tag's existence and be able to use it.

And I'm fine with all three of these, though light_smile seems kind of iffy.
