Pointless Pools

So anyway I read that I should contribute o the site somehow to "potentially, lol", see the loli stuff. And since I have some experience with creating web crawlers that can scan the site, Ill thought ill give it a try, but if the result is empty for me, it may not be empty for someone else, and the results will fe faulty so I have up on this.

Use the XML API.

Thanx, do tags pages also have XML page like pools or something?

http://danbooru.donmai.us/tags/show.xml?id=kazuha

Yeah, there's an XML equivalent for most pages:

http://danbooru.donmai.us/tag/index.xml?name=kazuha

or

http://danbooru.donmai.us/tag/index.xml?id=490527

Have a look at the API help.

Umm ok thanx but really, not familiar with the XML thing. so Ill pass on the help file, cuz I dont know what to look for.
This wont give me any info regarding the files in the tag category will it?

I was planning on updating this pool sometime (basically, a theme of images that remind you of old stuff), but I never got around to it.

That Nostalgia pool has potential.

pool #741
pool #742

I dunno if this is considered pointless or not, but pool #544 is just chock-full of CG and other stuff that you could easily find by searching sex minus certain tags or ratings.

Eh, it's subjective so I'm iffy on it, but it's probably okay to keep it. There's no simple search that would approximate it. If it's pointless, it'd be because of the subjective part.

The description of that pool is amusing, I gotta say.

pool #763 -- "Alice Parade"

A simple tag search is completely sufficient for its contents.

pool #789

"this is me"

pool #799 - "anal"

pool #804 - "Persona 4 - title unknown (unknown Korean artist)"

None of the posts within were approved, which is a shame, since Lalaca put a lot of effort in translating them.

Why delete? I intended on appealing the posts in that pool. (forum #22895)

While I'm here, I'd like to question the purpose of pool #737 -- "Colored pubic hair"

I am torn. On the one hand, it's a kind of thing that could go in a pool. It's related content that couldn't be found with a search. On the other hand... wow that's stupid.

Also, how is there anything unusual about blond hair? It doesn't seem like it should be in the same class as purple and green.

Heck, for that matter can any colors be considered unusual in anime/manga?

Restrict it to colors that don't appear on real people and maybe it has a shred of applicability but it doesn't make the pool any less dumb.

pool #811 -- "xetton"

Reason: artist tag search.

pool #818 - "Catgirls and the like"

Reason: Judging by the description, "animal_ears, rating:safe," images in pool can be searched with tags.
