Replace color tag aliases with deprecations

Posted under Tags

I'm not so sure I can support a BUR that is in itself unsure of what someone else said, or fails to question any applicable nuance about what was said. Needs more time in discussion or at the drawing board and to figure out for certain what was said and what it pertains to.

I always search the lipstick colors to get these tags since that is what is displayed in the image. If you remove something like green_lipstick or blue_lipstick as aliases it becomes way harder to find the tags

Wouldn't blue_lips appear before blue_lipstick anyways?

It does, the problem at least for me is that it's such an unnatural way to refer to the concept blue_lips, yellow_lips, green_lips, ect doesn't draw to mind the fact that it is indeed for lipstick. I'm willing to be the odd one out, but I always type the full "lipstick" when it shows up in a post.

Here's what I could find:

orange_eyelashes -> colored_eyelashes
and oripathy_monitor -> infection_monitor
we should probably deprecate most of these color tags now instead of aliasing them so they don't pollute autocomplete

And in the context of aliases like "black bikini bottom -> black bikini"

they only exist because we didn't want people repopulating these tags and it was before deprecations existed

I do agree that in the absence of autocomplete, it can feel more natural to have blue_lipstick. Maybe light_blue_* should be in its own BUR.

This is why I ask you on the Discord to scroll up even five messages before you say or use anything. You're just blindly trying to solve problems that don't actually exist right now and haven't come up with your own justification besides trying to apply what someone said without question or nuance. This clarification just made me change my meh vote to a downvote.

Those two results were deprecated because they were polluting the autocomplete results of orange tags. The same kind of pollution doesn't exist for the blue lips tag. The only case I can see is for destroying the light tag because any light/dark colour tags are typically staring down the barrel of deprecation anyway but that's not significant enough for me to agree with the rest of the BUR.
