Lemme do it here then rather than PM so there's a record. Some I missed a proper count on or haven't added because they were shot down really hard, but this is the whole gist.

*note: list is forever being updated with things getting added/removed
Expression
illness / sickness - Kairi-chan, maybe from Yatchen, Julia (declined by Hopeful_Encounter, Merun)
injured / injury - I forgot who sorry, Julia, (declined by me, Hopeful_Encounter, Camelia, Aizawa -- general consensus about guro)
pout - softfang, whitekitten, Ran, Inuyan, Sinamuna (Sinamuna suggested :< but I know some members weren't a fan of the emoji tags over words) (declined by nue, yuki2, Aizawa)
sigh - softfang

Creature/Person
belly dancer - Yatchen (declined by tensa, declined by me who prefers dancer)
centaur - DoomTay (no from Yatchen, no from me for reasons similar to furries)
dancer - Valea, Ran, Aizawa, maybe me after much thought but I did decline at the time
insect - Fawn, me, Ran, boiboym89 (issues with not being actual insects but minibeast sounds ridiculous and no one will tag it)
monster girl - Julia, Ran (declined by Hopeful_Encounter, Merun, RockRabbit, me, Aizawa -- general consensus like furries again)
snake - softfang, Amlerisa (I'm not keen)
teacher - Julia (no from me, Aizawa - too vague)
unicorn - can't remember when came up, me, Ran, Aizawa

Characteristics
colored skin - RockRabbit, Crimson_Camelia, Aizawa if better name
middriff/stomach/belly/tummy - tsukiko, 100% Ran approved, Julia (Aizawa probably no, I find it weird to tag a body part)
multi-colored hair - 人竜=ninryu, Porcelain_Doll, Purella Lacelle, Julia, Artifex, Crimson_Camelia, Hakuryu, Siena Cruz (nope from me but looks like an eventual add)
scar - softfang, Merun, Julia, Artifex, maybe from rockrabbit (no from tensa)
spiky hair - Adore
white eyes - RockRabbit, Aizawa (camelia not convinced, me decline, hopeful)

Wearables
bag - Nady (declined by yuna, nue, yuki2, yatchen for too general). I wouldn't mind since we already have hat, though "backpack" and "purse" have also been suggested, which I wouldn't mind
>backpack - cosmictails, me maybe
>purse - Imouto-tan, Julia, me maybe
belt - Nady, Imouto-tan, Adore, belt (shot down previously, declined by me, ran)
corset - retracted suggestion by Aizawa
dirndl - me, Ran
gothic>gothic fashion - me (no one reads the description, like with bloomers, and I have a degree in gothic lit), Aizawa, Biba (Fawn declined because description)
handcuffs - Amlerisa
knee socks - Aizawa, nardack2009, Crimson_Camelia (declined by me, can't remember who else but there was argument over tagging all socks)
leg warmers - (didnt count Im sorry), artifex, Aizawa, me after some thought and running into a ton
leotard / gymnastics - softfang
leotard - (didnt count Im sorry), softfang, locus-solus, cosmictails, Aizawa
nightgown - Imouto-tan, whitekitten, ran (declined by Julia, Aizawa thing pjs covers it; potential issue also of it getting mixed up with negligees)
roller blades / skates - ButterflyIllusioned, softfang (turned down by Yatchen)
shawl - cosmictails
slippers - Hopeful_Encounter, Merun (but they say there was drama before the current thread), whitekitten
steampunk - me, Ran, Aizawa fine with it (possible issue with people not reading the fashion tags)
lipstick - Nady (no from me who wants makeup for worn makeup and cosmetics for hold items, but I've not suggested yet)
>makeup - TwinofPower, demon_turtle1028, whitekitten, Yatchen not opposed, Adore, RockRabbit, Crimson_Camelia (merun + julia declined for reasons of not being able to tell, but we could just go with an 'obvious makeup' rule)
>see cosmetics
dirndl - me

drums - Julia, Hopeful, demon_turtle1028, Camelia, Aizawa (I don't mind either way)
fruit - Imouto-tan (declined by Yatchen/tensa as too specific), fruit tagging as food confuses me and RockRabbit

>peace - Imouto-tan (would probably go under hand gestures, no from Aizawa)

Okay gonna put my opinion for public show, expect me to constantly edit this to add more then delete and repost once I go through them all.

Castle: Suggest but don't care much for it anymore
Scared: I am okay with this one
Multi-colored hair: Already agreed to it
Steampunk: I have mixed feelings because as someone into the goth scene I'd hate to see this tag bastardized like the goth one, lolita fashion also seemed to constantly cause debates but idk much about the loli fashion anyway. But we have a goth tag for goth FASHION itself anyway, as well as a lolita one, so.. maybe?
Cross: No. Not a fan of having religious symbols as tags on the board.
Carnival: Fine by me
Monster girl: No, we are opening a furry apocalypse with this one
Corset: I retract my suggestion as I was a younger member back then and I don't want people getting the wrong idea with the tag.
Sewing: Still have mixed feelings
Dancer: Fine with me
Teacher: No, too vague
Kneesocks: I still like this one but I have a thing for kneesocks and thigh highs especially so I am biased
Grave: Yes
Leotard: Sure
Matsuri: Yes. maybe as a child tag to carnival or something if that one gets in
Bubble tea: Bit too specific for me so I say no
white eyes: Yes. Tired of the mental gymnastics tagging this.
Member art: No since we implore users to use the forums for this anyway
Red thread: Maybe specific but it's cute and matches the aesthetic of the board so I am indifferent
Wind: No, too hard to tell
Pinwheel: No
Hand gestures: If we do this, it should be limited
Unicorn: Yes
Forest: No, tree and scenic should cover it
Drums: Yes, as a child to musical instrument
Cup girl: Nope, way too niche and specific
Basket: Mixed feelings. Probably not.
Carousal: Sure
Colored skin: We'd have to make a better name for it imo
Injured: No, too guro for a ~ holy ~anime image board
Leg warmers: yes
Nightgown: We have pajamas and those are pretty much that
All hand gesture tags in general are basically a no to me
Writing: No
Pencil: No
cityscape: No, scenic covers it
Tummy: Mixed feelings, probably no.
Gift: Yes and it's also incredibly common


To add, I also support renaming gothic to gothic fashion much like the lolita one, I have been in the goth scene since I was 15, and it's so much more than clothing so I think the change would make the tag more specific for it's intended purpose.

Now, just a disclaimer, these are just my personal ~* OPINIONS *~

Re: Tag suggestion

These are all our opinions, but being able to look at everyone's as a whole might offer a bit more context. I also like suggestions to sit here a little for everyone to see, though some of these old ones had sat and been discussed for years now (it's such a relief to have ghost finally). Those last suggestions were all personal wants rather than 'shuu needs to add right now'. And as mentioned by others way previously, stuff that doesn't get in the first time might not be a no forever.

As for steampunk, as much as the "gothic" tag has problems, I don't think we'd be better off without it; the same with this. Our fashion tags are really useful. We can always go "steampunk fashion", though there is less of a chance of it being getting so messy because the area is much narrower and generally of the same origin compared to areas labelled "gothic" (context for anyone else reading, but a gothic building is not the same style as gothic fashion; they mean something altogether different because the word gothic has roots pertaining to barbarism when it comes to architecture; gothic fashion, of course, came about much later history-wise, so there's a lot more of an issue mixing these up). Honestly, I have no idea why the lolita one is troublesome, but I don't follow lolita fashion; my friends go to steampunk events around here though.

I'll probably edit your opinions into the list above for now if that's alright, rather than reposting it every time (same if anyone else makes a personal list back).

(in summary of the list though, the future tags are probably "cowgirl", "multicolored hair" and "scared" once enough time passes and someone wants to add them; I probs won't be adding multicolored hair myself since I'll only tag it in passing). "drums" is the next candidate.

Edit note: If anyone is super bored, "orange hair" images are still rampant in "red hair" and many "beverage" tags need to be swapped to "alcohol".

Don't mind discussion as I have always been very vocal and active in helping this board... I just think a problem here is lack of communication. I'm not disagreeing with the fashion tags though, on the contrary, I WANT them. As for lolita I am going off old comments but there were issues about what counted as lolita and what didn't and... I don't care about that subculture nor keep up with it, so I am not one to speak on it. I suppose it's the same mindset some goths have with elitism. But at the end of the day, anime fashion is always gonna stray from the reality, so long as it 'passes enough' with the idea I don't care.

But yeah, as long as we can avoid that then I am fine for steampunk.

A suggestion for “Racing Miku” has been made via PMs. While we can search for “race queen” and “Hatsune Miku”, I think the character and all of her iterations are as unique as the likes of Snow Miku and Sakura Miku. Thoughts?

I'll put it here too but already mentioned being concerned that Racing Miku might be considered an outfit instead of a character design (and she already has "race queen"), but I'm not opposed to it being a tag if everyone really wanted one.

Already mentioned wanting bubble tea since it's such a popular trend. It'd also let us filter down the drinks a bit (I'm still just trying to get alcohol tagged right)

I'm fine with a bubble tea tag, since I do feel like it's very recognizable in images. I'm not sure how many images we have with it in though, but it is a big trend now. I think coffee would probably be in more images and I'm fine with that tag too.

Tbh I'd prefer we had a few big drinks tags anyway (I said similar with food earlier).

Only problem with coffee is 'hot dark liquid' and 'take out cups' can either be coffee or tea (especially in countries like the UK since no one drinks from tea cups these days). "hot drink" would be an option and also include hot chocolate, but I dunno.

But wine, beer, sake, boba, tea (traditional green and teacups anyway), and cocktails are all very recognisable (and very prominent in a lot of images). To do the big alcohol ones though we'd have to delete "alcohol" (or else they won't appear under beverage when there's a child of a child), which could be a different issue.

Could someone maybe add a sister/alternate tag "Nahida" for "Kusanali"? She's known by both names in the Genshin franchise. It might make it easier for Genshin fans who visit the site or post pics of her to be able to also use/search "Nahida" if they don't know about the "Kusanali" title.

I've been avoiding it personally, since she's not out yet and all our information is based on leaks. I added one tag to group the images together but it'll probably change later anyway depending on the info we get.

It was announced officially that she was called "Nahida" in the latest Sumeru teaser video.
"Kusanali" is probably considered the "leak" name, I guess.

But that's fine, waiting is probably best to be 100% certain.
