deprecate prompt_request

Posted under Tags

I'm gonna reject the OP because in either case I don't think it should be deprecated. The question should be whether we want *_request tags for every bit of metadata or one blanket tag.

BUR #48 has been approved by @user_2.

create alias prompt_request -> metadata_request

For the above reason; replacement tag.

The second line of this BUR is redundant as the category is automatically updated when a non-general tag is aliased to a general (or non-existent) tag.

Admittedly, I didn't consider the former as an idea, but it would make sense. However, I think a lot of posts would end up with at least one of those tags if they were created (since most of the Pixiv/Twitter-sourced ones and even a good portion of self uploads don't have some or any metadata available.)

Also, if someone were uploading a post with no metadata, I'm not expecting them to add 7 tags for all the missing items (Prompt, Negative Prompt, Sampler, Seed, Steps, Cfg Scale, and the Model Hash), unless each tag is used as expected and metadata request existed for all items missing.

Yeah, prompt_request, seed_request, hash_request etc. would just become messy...

Very messy, indeed. I already know that if it was done that way, most uploaders wouldn't tag them anyway even if they did apply (especially when you see many that don't even tag their self uploads properly.)

Having only metadata_request may be fine but it's also not very specific at a glance. Most posts that have missing info will likely not have it found anyway, so I don't know if that would be considered a problem in itself.
