Tag suggestion: paid_reward_available

Posted under Tags

Some artists release altered versions or previews of their paid_reward works as a method of advertising them. I'd like to propose that a new meta-tag be created for these previews. The name that I'm suggesting, paid_reward_available, is worded to be consistent with the existing meta-tag making-of_available.

What I'm not sure about is whether to keep this tag separate from cases where the reward is simply a higher-resolution version of the exact same image. Should that be a separate tag that implies this one? Should it be tagged at all? Let me know what you think.

Now that paid_reward works are no longer allowed to be uploaded to the site, the viability of these paid_reward previews has gone up somewhat. I also think it would be a useful tag to allow someone to assess at a glance what sort of works they might get from subscribing to that artist on whichever rewards service is used.

Will the tag be updated via a bot or how will it be populated?
Because a link to the artist's patreon in the artist's commentary shouldn't be a good enough reason to add the tag.

I've added the tag to posts where the commentary specified additional uncensored or similar versions available, but yeah, it shouldn't be bulk-added randomly of course.

That would probably be useful to mention in the tag's wiki.
