remove alias hump (36) -> invalid_tag (0)
remove alias humping (2103) -> invalid_tag (0)
remove alias scenic (0) -> scenic_(disambiguation) (0)
remove alias shading (0) -> invalid_tag (0)
remove alias water_pipe (2) -> invalid_tag (0)
remove alias white_paws (855) -> white_paws_(disambiguation) (0)
remove alias wall (0) -> wall_(disambiguation) (0)

Reason: These tags are all in categories that make them not useful or wrongly categorized.

Future BUR

white_paws is a good enough tag. Scenic has one use case and it already has another tag for it. 

alias hump -> humping_(disambiguation)
alias humping -> humping_(disambiguation)
alias wall -> wall_(structure)
alias shading -> shaded

white_paws and shade are good enough tags on their own. I'm not sure why shade was disambiguated in the first place.

White Paws has been used as a name, but can also refer to a character's paws being white. Shade could refer to a darkened area (e.g. an area under a canopy of some sort), a character's shadow, a ghost (a shade is a type of spirit), or be a misspelling of shaded (as in self-shadowing, darkening areas of a character to give them a sense of volume). I'm not sure about wall... seems it was originally invalidated due to being too generic, but considering there is now wall_(structure) which is exactly the same thing, I don't think that reasoning holds anymore.

Updated

There is quite a lot of characters named shade, but everything else is of the properly tagged variety. I see your point about this though, and I will need to think of a better name for it. It was being used for object and plant shadows over characters.

The bulk update request #1638 is active.

create alias scenic (0) -> scenery (2332)
create alias wall (0) -> wall_(structure) (14645)
mass update white_paws_(anatomy) -> white_paws
mass update white_paws_(disambiguation) -> white_paws

Reason: This is a follow up to the first BUR I made.

These terms should be relatively safe aliases to make. This completes the purpose of the first BUR.
