Tag Alias: left-to-right_manga -> left-to-right[_comic]

Aliasing left-to-right_manga -> left-to-right_comic.
or
Aliasing left-to-right_manga & ..._comic -> left-to-right.

Reason: Consistency with comic. Whichever way, left-to-right_comic oughta be worked in, along with whatever underscore-only variants, and left-to-right needs to be integrated, superimposed, or eliminated.

I don't think this word means what you think it does.

forum #19040 comes to mind.

1) I couldn't think of another big word, and an alias seemed like a similar enough concept to the definition's wording.
2) Oh... Well, my memory's as bad as ever.

Remember how I banned you for abusing English? Using big words you don't understand was a part of the reason.

to place or lay over or above something

That is, at least figuratively*, how an alias works.

*Hopefully this isn't one of those words that everyone uses wrong.

Yeah, per that left-to-right_comic doesn't make much sense because all "comics" (in the Western sense) are left to right. Indicating a left to right direction is only useful when it's something not usually in that direction... i.e. manga.

I know we use comic over manga (which maybe wasn't the best choice in hindsight) but most likely that's just because we wanted an umbrella term. Not that most western comics are relevant to danbooru.

Anyway I aliased left-to-right to left-to-right_manga.

Since this site mainly deals with Japanese sources, the norm is right-to-left, and there are instances where a comic may look Japanesey (or otherwise foreign, especially if it may look hard-translated) enough that it can throw one (read: me) for a loop until realization sets in, so it's not just "manga" that could deserve the tag, and I'd go so far as to say all instances of left-to-right should be tagged as such, considering the "norm" of this site.

Are 4komas, crude or simplistic as they're often drawn, even fully considered "manga" (I'm not hip to the full coverage of that term)?

EDIT: There are also images that feature subsequent [things] that aren't very comic/manga-like, such as post #636735 and its child (at least they seem left-to-right; if not, I feel the point's still valid), so perhaps such posts exclude both of the longer tags...?

It's not in a comic format so I don't think it warrants a directional tag.

I'll strangle you, very slowly. Then I'll send the tape to your family as a warning, in case they have any more kids like that.
