Topic: maid uniform aliases

I'm not sure if french_maid should also be aliased to maid_uniform. It could at least be an implication.

french_maid implies maid, which implies maid_uniform.

I think, if anything, french_maid should be alias'd to maid. and all the aliases you suggested should go to maid_uniform instead. I don't see the point in distinguishing between the two, especially since the wiki page for maid_uniform states "stereotypically worn by French maids".

Edit: Most of the images in maid -french_maid are french_maid outfits anyway...

May also want to consider implicating maid to maid_uniform, as I see the maid tag is commonly missing from images featuring a maid uniform whereas there are no instances of a maid without a complimentary outfit of some sort.

... Yeah, how would you even see a maid in an image unless a maid uniform was visible in the first place? ._. Also, nothing shows up in maid -maid_uniform because maid implies maid_uniform... What you're suggesting is that they both imply each other, which is basically an alias, no?

Perhaps maid should be alias'd to maid_uniform in this case...

Again, seconding Kida. We should just probably alias the following to maid_uniform:

french_maid (113) (Because a majority of maid uniforms are of the French style anyway)
french_maid_outfit (2)
french_maid_uniform (0)
french_maid_costume (1)
maid_outfit (already aliased)
maid_costume (21)
maid (1636) (Has maid_uniform implicated to it, yet has fewer instance than maid_uniform, so more people are using maid_uniform instead of maid to tag maids.)

_
Maid_uniform (2078) is evidently the preferred tag, as the count suggests.

Not only does this consolidate similar tags with a few posts like maid_costume or french_maid_outfit, but as Kida said: How can you tell someone is a maid without some sort of uniform?

I think maid uniform or maid outfit would be better end results for the aliasing, as you can't "see" a maid in an image, but you can see their outfit. They're slightly longer than maid, but more descriptive as a tag name.
