Aliasing wall_eyed → strabismus
Link to alias

Reason:

Strabismus is a condition, that prevents someone to align their eyes correctly and being able to focus their gaze on something.

The 'strabismus'-tag would replace the 'wall_eyed'-tag and one would be able to point out crossed eyes as well.

I just thought of something.
After looking for posts, with the derp-tag, I think it could also be possible to alias wall_eyed and derp, since a lot of characters in derp-posts have a wall-eyed stare.

But I'm still unsure and would like to hear your opinions on this.

I don't think an alias to strabismus is a good idea since having someone go wall-eyed is often used for comedic effect in art and doesn't necessarily mean they *can't* align their eyes correctly. (Basically, you can see the symptom, but not the condition...)

Probably should alias wall_eyed -> derp_eyes or the reverse though since it's basically the same thing.

Derp eyes currently has the larger number of posts, but that tag seems to have been born to describe the eyes for derpy_hooves_(mlp) and other mlp characters that have gone wall-eyed more than others.

...Or we could keep the two separate and clarify their use in wiki since wall-eyed more often means the eyes look outward, and derp eyes tends to mean one looking up and one looking down.

(If wall_eyed is kept, I'd also suggest aliasing wall-eyed and walleyed to it just to avoid later potential tag-scattering.)

im p sure that we dont alias commonly used terms to terms nobody has heard of.

Alias wall_eyed (and variations), strabismus, derp_face, and derp -> derp_eyes. They all overlap too much and are rarely used outside of this meaning (for tagging I mean).

+1 -> Works for me.

Well, that's an even better idea!
