Aliasing graveyard → cemetary

edit: cemetery, not cemetary.... geeze.

Reason:

They mostly mean the same thing.

Mostly.

A graveyard is a type of cemetery, but cemeteries are not always graveyards.

Graveyards are 'attached' to a church, while cemeteries are simply a place where people are buried. No Church required.

EDIT: The tag alias graveyard -> cemetery (forum #247950) has been approved by @bitWolfy.

Did I really...?

FFS, 8-hours-ago SnowWolf. You already knew you couldn't spell that word. Why didn't you double check?

I just tried to create the same alias.

I know there's technically a difference, but there's no way to tell from vast majority of posts whether it takes place on churchyard or in separate cemetery. Even wikipedia treats these the same, so +1 for alias.
