Topic: Disambiguate wiener

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #1609 is active.

remove alias wiener (0) -> invalid_tag (3)

Reason: This was invalidated 7 years ago but I think disambiguation is a better solution than full invalidation. At minimum it should have the invalid category rather than being aliased away. Aliasing things to invalid_tag has mostly been stopped in favour of the invalid category, as this actually retains the original intentions of the tagger who added it.

It could mean

Since the tag is currently aliased this will need to be a two-step BUR, one to remove the alias and the second to rename the tag to wiener_(disambiguation).

EDIT: The bulk update request #1609 (forum #321177) has been approved by @bitWolfy.

It can also mean someone from Vienna
