Topic: [REJECTED] Restoring ampersands in tags - Beyond Good & Evil (game)

Posted under General

The bulk update request #33 has been rejected.

remove implication beyond_good_and_evil_(game) (35) -> ubisoft (2063)
remove alias beyond_good_and_evil (0) -> beyond_good_and_evil_(game) (35)
remove alias beyond_good_&_evil (0) -> beyond_good_and_evil_(game) (35)
create alias beyond_good_and_evil_(game) (35) -> beyond_good_&_evil_(game) (0)
create implication beyond_good_&_evil_(game) (0) -> ubisoft (2063)

Reason: The proper spelling of the name of this video game is with an ampersand. Previously, this was aliased to use the word "and" instead because of a bug involving ampersands in the blacklist (forum #23047), but it has since been fixed in the new version of the site.

Note: Due to an error (quoted at the bottom), I cannot suggest the following:

alias beyond_good_and_evil -> beyond_good_&_evil_(game)
alias beyond_good_&_evil -> beyond_good_&_evil_(game)

Error: Error: Antecedent name has already been taken; The beyond_good_and_evil tag must have at least 20 posts for an alias to be created (create alias beyond_good_and_evil -> beyond_good_&_evil_(game))

EDIT: The bulk update request #33 (forum #289965) has been rejected by @Millcore.

I'm not entirely on board with this project. While the ampersand is technically correct, it once again sticks special characters in tags. The fewer punctuation characters that appear in tags the better imo, because it leaves me better options for search syntax later on.
