Topic: Tag Alias: radiograph -> x-ray

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The x-ray tag seems to be used almost exclusively for internal shots and it's not like you can see actual x-rays. I suggest disambiguating x-ray instead.

+1. Due colloquialism, this term tends to be used for any image that shows an internal view of an object or individual. Also "x-ray" actually isn't synonym of "radiograph", since it refers to a type of eletromagnetic radiation with hight frequence (however, I am not sure if this meaning is relevant here).

That gets the job done too.

Might I also request x_ray be aliased to x-ray, or vice versa just to merge similar tags?

I guess not. "x_ray" currently is unused and we are trying to avoid unnecessary alias (mods already are overloaded with lots of suggestions at the moment).
