[The virtual_youtuber tag] should apply to not only virtual YouTubers themselves, but also to parodies of virtual YouTubers, references to them... -virtual_youtuber wiki
Is there anything that prevents adding an implication to the virtual_youtuber tag on a per character-basis? Not scalable? Fringe cases?
Based on the wiki definition, it seems like it should broadly apply via "reference" in any situation the character would get tagged, even if they're not present (e.g., character dressed in another's outfit, which is the first case I searched around for where the tag has multiple cases where it's not applied), and then obviously in any case where the character is present.
Browsed around to see if there was any discussion on this, but the most relevant thing I found was a thread from a while ago that seemed to lean towards nuking the tag entirely.
