Wait, what?
Spy is aliased to spy_(team_fortress_2)? How did that even...

Agreed, that one is even worse! Medic at least has paramedics and doctors, but what the heck else would we do with spies?!

Edit: Scout has the problem too. Boyscouts and girlscouts and whatnot, y'know?

EDIT AGAIN: Pyro is a character from the Pokemon anime! No I don't expect that one to actually change, we can easily clean those ones out

I really don't know enough about tf2 to clean these up aside from the obvious ones, but if anyone else gets a chance to fix these try to remember to remove valve and video_games as well.

Just here to say, good call.
Medic should also be changed to a general tag.

The spy tag must've been quite a mess.
Many have nothing to do with TF2, but I wouldn't tag most of them as spies either. Some would fit better under peeping, some characters don't look like spies at all (probably tagged by outside information), etc.

And, uh, can anyone spot a spy in this?:

Not sure if it's properly tagged.

I was browsing the stupidfox series and came across post #27682, which I realized had been tagged with medic_(team_fortress_2), despite being a perfectly generic medic. I think that medic should instead disambiguate so that cases where there's a paramedic or doctor can be properly tagged.

Huh.

Para, why didn't you just listen to yourself? I'm a terrible influence, apparently.

Well, time to disambiguate the hell out of these tags.

medic -a-> medic_(disambiguation)

  • medic_(team_fortress_2)
  • paramedic/doctor

spy -a-> spy_(disambiguation)

  • spy_(team_fortress_2)
  • secret_agent

EDIT: Dammit, the arrows are screwed up again. :(

No worries, it's my fault for not thinking it through. The lesson here is to always avoid running aliases when under the influence of alcohol or lack of sleep.

Yeah I derped with the code when fixing some exploits. A fix is already on the way.

So, should we implement the disambiguations I described above?
