Topic: Inconsistent "tuft" tags: elbow_tufts is the only one that is plural

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

On the wiki page for tuft, almost all of them are singular: arm_tuft, ear_tuft, cheek_tuft etc.

But elbow_tufts is plural! For consistency, I think this should be changed so that elbow_tuft is the version that takes priority.

Currently, elbow_tuft is aliased to elbow_tufts. I tried submitting a new alias request to reverse this (i.e. to "elbow_tufts -> elbow_tuft"), but the site didn't let me, displaying the error message:

Error: A tag alias for elbow_tuft already exists

If it can't be done via a straightforward tag alias, would some other, more complicated process need to be done to make the singular one take priority?

A BUR will need to be made to remove the implications and aliases from elbow_tufts, then once that BUR is approved, another BUR needs to be made to recreate the implications and aliases for elbow_tuft instead.

The bulk update request #673 is active.

remove alias elbow_tuft (18387) -> elbow_tufts (0)
remove implication elbow_tufts (0) -> arm_tuft (36927)
remove implication elbow_tufts (0) -> tuft (448110)

Reason: Based on OP's request. After this, if this BUR gets approved, @Watsit 's directions will be followed.

EDIT: The bulk update request #673 (forum #304631) has been approved by @Millcore.

The tuft and arm_tuft implications need to be removed too, or else there may be problems making the elbow_tufts -> elbow_tuft alias.

Updated the BUR. Thanks for mentioning this!

It looks like the alias on topic #10339 is causing that # duplicate of has blocking transitive relationships, cannot be applied through bur error message. That alias might need to be rejected first before the BUR above can be approved.
