Topic: Tag Implication: mr._wolf -> toybox_pals

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

I'd avoid an implication in this case. His name's just a title+his species name, so it's easy to imagine another character with the name turning up eventually. Same with Mr. Sheep, Ms. Tiger, and Mrs. Pig.

+1, against Penguin's statement is the inclusion of Mr., Mrs., And Ms. You can't really screw up titles accidentally, and even in case it does happen it wouldn't be hard to fix. If a person has such a title, they'll already have an established name, which means it will either include said name or be an alternate name of it.

In shorthand: the titles are working names, the use of a title is both uncommon and fixable. If there are other characters of the same species with said title, both their official name will be findable and it will be distinguishable from Toybox Pals.

we could also add suffixes before this turns into a problem

now it's a problem (because of The Bad Guys)

this should never have been approved, in my opinion; it's just as generic as the massive list of first-name tags that have to be disambiguated

The bulk update request #1774 is active.

create implication lilly_goat (30) -> toybox_pals (214)
create implication ellie_the_elephant (21) -> toybox_pals (214)
mass update nurse_giraffe -> nurse_giraffe_(toybox_pals)
create implication nurse_giraffe_(toybox_pals) (27) -> toybox_pals (214)
mass update princess_hippo -> princess_hippo_(toybox_pals)
create implication princess_hippo_(toybox_pals) (37) -> toybox_pals (214)

Reason: Implying a few other tags, updating generic tags to suffixed ones.

EDIT: The bulk update request #1774 (forum #323529) has been approved by @bitWolfy.
