This tag is currently a species tag. Shouldn't it be a general tag?

Depends, are you talking about the verb or the bird.

Or both, at the same time! post #82971

But in all seriousness it looks like we already have a swallow_(bird) species, so I support this suggestion.

Ah, if there's already a separate bird I'd agree as well.

Upon a bit of searching, I'd also suggest aliasing swallowing into swallow.

Well that clears it I guess because I was wonder since there is a bird called swallow.

Yea that would clear up the bird issue some what.

We should just do SwallowING as verb
and Swallow as bird.

Well both ideas could be used to help differentiate the tags. Swallowing will never be mistaken for the bird and swallow_(bird) will never be mistaken for the action.

If we use those, the only thing that needs deciding is to which tag swallow should be aliased. I vote that it go to the most commonly used case, which is currently the bird at 156 posts versus the action's 103.
