Reason: I've found a number of typo tags for various striped_* tags. Threw in a bonus leggins typo tag I caught while looking through these.
Also, I've found that stripped exists, but it doesn't seem to serve a clear purpose. I thought about aliasing it to stripes to follow the striped -> stripes alias already in place, but I saw that there was a wiki description defining it as essentially the same thing as assisted_exposure or exposed. However, many of the posts under that tag don't even seem to fit that definition, and many are clearly just a typo of striped. So, I wrote a disambiguation wiki for it and decided it would be best to invalidate the tag.

EDIT: The bulk update request #1358 (forum #317170) has been approved by @bitWolfy.

I'm not as certain on this. Stripped means to remove something, it could be used for undressing or shaved. Might be best to alias them all to stripped and write in a disambuation to the sets of tags.

Well, the current usage of these tags seems to be pretty unanimously as a typo of striped. I don’t see any reference to shaving or stripping (besides the stripped tag itself).

Still, I have an issue with disambiguating everything when it’s not necessary. That only creates an even bigger backlog of invalid tags that need to be cleaned out (and the invalid tags we do have are already backed up as it is). In this case, we can be fairly certain the vast majority of uses for these tags are going to be in reference to stripes.

Also, generally, it’s good to remember that a lot of people using this site don’t have a firm grasp of English spelling - it’s a second language for many users. So if someone types in stripped_stockings, they are most likely trying to find striped_stockings, and they just don’t know how to spell it. Better to use the aliases as a built-in autocorrect rather than potentially just confuse people by aliasing stripped_stockings to stripped.
