Topic: [APPROVED] Footprints in the BUR | Footprint BUR

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #1486 is active.

create alias footprints (6) -> footprint (6555)
create alias foot_print (3) -> footprint (6555)
create alias foot_prints (5) -> footprint (6555)
create alias foot-print (0) -> footprint (6555)
create alias foot-prints (0) -> footprint (6555)

Reason: Aliasing plural forms to singular forms. By following the aliases of pawprint, I also put the version with "-". Should I also alias footstep to footprint? That word could also refer to the steps of a stair, so I'm not sure if it's ok.

EDIT: The bulk update request #1486 (forum #319153) has been approved by @spe.

It could also refer to someone's foot coming into contact with the ground while walking, not necessarily leaving any print behind.

I’m not sure “footstep” is ever going to be a valid tag for anything, so I don’t think it would be a problem to alias it to something.

Then it should be invalidated or disambiguated.
