The bulk update request #672 is active.

create alias celestial (0) -> celestial_(disambiguation) (2)
create alias celestial_(artist) (2) -> tbid (697)
create alias xtbidx (0) -> tbid (697)
create alias tbid_(artist) (0) -> tbid (697)

Reason: Although the artist is known as "Celestial" on Fur Affinity (and previously Inkbunny and Weasyl), they go by "tbid" more often nowadays and sign their work as such.

Edit: I've made a disambiguation page for "celestial" and cleaned up all the "celestial" tags.

EDIT: The bulk update request #672 (forum #304593) has been approved by @slyroon.

I almost feel like celestial should be disambiguated, since it's a fairly common descriptor for holy things or sky-oriented realms. But if it's been an artist tag for this long without any problems, I guess I don't see why not.

There are problems. Right now. At this very moment.

Reason: Why does the tag being aliased carry over its category?

So when aliasing artists, characters, and the like to a new unused tag name, they don't end up in the general section. Or when one tag is replacing a preexisting one, it doesn't have its category changed to the one being replaced. No matter which way it goes (whether an x -> y alias results in y with x's type, or the x tag changed to y with y's type), some cases will do the wrong thing.
