I keep seeing autotagger suggest these two tags when making LoRAs for some reason and realized I should make an article warning others about them. "Bangs" and "hand on hips" are not actually Danbooru tags. These two tags only exist on Danbooru on their wiki (the authoritative source for Danbooru tags) as redirects to tell you to use a more specific tags that fall under both. No images are tagged with them, and the wiki history says this was true when the dump PDXL uses was made (let alone Illustrious's newer dump). I don't know why autolabel suggests either, since the one used on site appears to actually be based on a dump newer than Pony (note how it recognizes asticassia school uniform, which Pony doesn't).
You'll get a much better effect using the proper tags. For "hand on hip", use "hands on own hips" (both), "hand on own hip" (singular, though generators should note that without something else for the second hand to do, actions with hands are often mirrored by default. Specify something for the other hand to do like "arm at side" to prevent it.), "hands on another's hips" (plural hands, another person touching), and "hand on another's hip" (singular hand. Taggers note you may want to use "solo focus" when this pops up in training data if you cropped the hand's owner mostly out of the pic) instead. For bangs, consult the Danbooru wiki or do a ctrl+f of a tag dump for stuff that includes "bangs" because there's too many types of bangs to list here.
As a practical matter on the generation side, since "bangs" doesn't actually do anything most of the time, you can just often cut "bangs" from the tag list of any LoRA that calls for it to get a token back. (Yes, I know a lot of my older LoRAs used it. I make these articles so people can easily learn things I had to learn the hard way.)
