Reason:

As it stands, Twitch_(lol) has no tags because the currently used tag is twitch. However, as Parasprite has said before, the use of suffixes are better.

However, I am undecided for aliasing twitch to twitch_(lol), on one hand it will make it faster, but on the other I am willing to presume that twitch is a common name for rodent OCs. A manual moving of the tags is better off IMO, as none of the tags are being used for characters other than twitch, and maybe aliasing twitch into twitch_(disambiguation)? The twitch wiki already states to not be confused with twitching, and the disambiguation page can contain twitching and twitch_(lol).

Of course, if twitch is aliased to twitch_(lol), it would be a really easy-to-catch mistake and is fixable.

*also, thank you, BlueDingo, for showing me the backslash trick. Now I am finally able to not have spaced letters/punctuation/numbers/symbols in my "*text*": links.*

EDIT: The tag implication twitch_(lol) -> league_of_legends (forum #216766) has been approved by @Millcore.

Twitch is actually a streaming service, and thus a copyright, so it's kind of necessary that we use the suffix.

Updated Udyr to this list, and it is assuming-ly safe to alias Udyr to Udyr_(lol) since there is no other (known) use of Udyr. If anyone else knows of currently unsuffixed names, feel free to message and I'll add them in.

So, Mega_Gnar_(LoL) exists (no shock), but all cases of him are also being tagged Gnar. Should we apply the mega evolutions ruling and separate the characters, thus removing Gnar when apt? Should we give Mega Gnar an implication to Gnar (it is already implied to LoL, so no need to list that here)?

I'm also adding in an alias from Mega_Gnar -> Mega_Gnar_(LoL). This does bring up another thing, evidently a _(League_of_Legends) suffix was used for them. While I think it's overkill, the question still stands: should we also alias every case where the full suffix isn't already aliased to the character's tag?

Should we Alias Illaoi to Illaoi_(LoL)? Kinda, mostly, really fucking certain that that is a unique name.

May as well keep the trend. Like our Pokemon characters, regular characters get the _(pokemon) suffix, though our professors are an exception due to the professor_ prefix. Maybe I should make a thread to talk about that

Added Renekton to this list. And, that is uncomfortable to spell. I keep wanting to spell it like plankton and add an N behind the K.
