Honkai: Star Rail Trailblazers & Character Names

Posted under Tags

BUR #11873 has been approved by @evazion.

create implication trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail)_(male) -> trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail)
create implication trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail)_(female) -> trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail)

This again, how fun. This isn't the first time a case of these has been brought up, as we have topic #20599 that didn't get anywhere. There was some debate in the comments there, but no one really did anything and it wasn't approved because of automatic rejection.

I don't know how this should be formatted, but I figure it's best we get past this now before more fanart is posted on here.

Edit: As mentioned in the topic linked above, I think using the trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail)_(female) and trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail)_(male) formats are for the best. But would it be best for us to completely just deprecate the Trailblazer (honkai: star rail) tag or keep it as an umbrella?

BUR #16554 has been approved by @nonamethanks.

create alias male_trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail) -> caelus_(honkai:_star_rail)
create alias female_trailblazer_(honkai:_star_rail) -> stelle_(honkai:_star_rail)

These two have finally gotten official names.

It's like with Aether and Lumine where they have official names but can then be renamed by the player.

While we're at it, this tag doesnn't appear to have any reason to exist anymore now that they have actual names. It would be like having a "traveler_(genshin_impact)" tag.

Can someone explain why they think this shouldn't be nuked? There's no point in this tag. Originally I can see why there was a use for it, but now that the Trailblazers have names it just isn't necessary anymore.

I think it has its uses to be able to find pictures that include "either of the protagonists" without having to do a two-tags OR search, and there'd be value in having a similar tag for the Genshin traveler of the Fujimaru Ritsukas. Sometimes you want to find art of a character with the protag without caring which protag it is for example, or sometimes (particularly in Fate's case, with the command seals on the hand) it could be a PoV without a clear indication of which protag it is, etc. That said it's not the norm so I also understand nuking it, so I voted neutral.

So you believe that a tag for Genshin traveler should be a thing?

Yes, personally I think it wouldn't hurt to have a general "Traveler" tag as well as a general "Fujimaru Ritsuka" tag (and any other similar case in other games where the protag can be male or female, such as Trailblazer for Star Rail) for pictures that include the protag, regardless of gender. Like was said above with Byleth (Fire Emblem).
