Just realized there is no "Nissan" copyright tag.

It's right there, but it's not classified as a copyright at the moment

How odd. It should have been.

Nissan doesn't have any characters, as far as I can tell. I changed it back to general.

What? Copyrights don't have to have characters. Honda has a copyright tag, Kawasaki has one, I can go on. Copyright refers to intellectual property, not a series.

Technically those are trademarks, which is not the same thing, but in terms of danbooru's internal terminology it seems fair enough to me to include them.

howto:copyright

On Danbooru, the term "copyright" means "the anime/game/comic/movie/etc from which a character originates". It does NOT mean "anything that is copyrighted".

So, the following searches that contain automakers and motorcycle manufacturers listed as a copyright are all tagged wrong and need to be fixed?

Yeah, I can't find any characters from those so I'll change them to general.

Useful trick: when linking searches, don't use the URLs since that locks the link to a given subdomain; instead surround each space-separated set of tags with double-curly-braces {{}}, like so: chevrolet; this will commit the search on the same subdomain that the user is currently on, plus it's easier to look at.

So the only reason why something like wendy's stays a copyright is because of the Wendy character?
