The bulk update request #13142 is pending approval.
remove implication crying (45247) -> tears (121253)
Reason: What if they're crying blood, or crying oil, or crying literally anything that's not tears?
Topic: Not all crying is tears...
Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions
unusual_tears implies tears. I think more things should imply unusual_tears, but there's ways of depicting crying that doesn't depict tears - being hunched over, sobbing, shaking etc.
Doesn't tear imply any type of thing coming from the eye while crying?
Whether it be blood, oil, fruit punch and so on with unusual_tears being an identifier
rather than a separate tag, like how you'd tag both Briefs 'and' Underwear, Dood?

Unusual liquids would not be my concern, but i support this for the fact that you can very easily depict a character very clearly crying without depicting tears. Covering face for example is extremely common thing to do while crying, which could easily obscure tears.
The current wiki and usage of crying tag feels off for me, because the tag is treated as essentially just second tag for tears.
I agree with the others who have stated support, for the reason that crying can be depicted without visible tears. I also believe that unusual_tears (a type of tears) should cover all non-standard tears, including tears of differing substances.

Ironically, we have crocodile_tears but it isn't what you think.

Agree with this reasoning
