Is there any way to do wildcard matches with DFRawFunctions? I was going to add all the humanoid creature variations (HUMANOID_HOOF, the zillion different numbers of limbs each type can have, etc.), but if there's any way to just search for any body tag that begins "HUMANOID_", that would be infinitely preferable.--Zzedar (talk) 23:55, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

I couldn't find any creatures that had tags like those, but something like this:
{{#rsplit:{{#df_tagentry:{{/raw}}|BODY|0|1|NOT_HUMANOID}}|_|0}}
should give you "HUMANOID" or something else, which can then be checked with #ifeq:
{{#ifeq:{{#rsplit:{{#df_tagentry:{{/raw}}|BODY|0|1|NOT_HUMANOID}}|_|0}}|HUMANOID|1|0}}
where 1=yes, 0=no. --Lethosor (talk) 00:24, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
Example: Antman - 1, Cat - 0, Ettin - 1
Implemented. Thanks for the idea. --Lethosor (talk) 00:27, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

Looks like a lot of birds use HUMANOID_ARMLESS. On the other hand, so do crab men. I guess we could exclude (armless + 2 wings), but that's awfully hacky. Let's take a step back. What is the purpose of this category? I mean, what attributes of humanoidness do we care about that it's worth making a category for them?
