Topic: Pinkamena name fix BUR

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #2117 is pending approval.

mass update pinkamena_diane_pie -> pinkamena_(mlp)

Reason: So apparently Pinkamena Diane Pie is the full name of pinkie_pie_(mlp), but all tagged images use it for pinkamena_(mlp) instead : pinkamena_diane_pie.
This looks like an "Update and Forget™" moment:
An alias to either pinkie_pie or pinkamena would be easily confused (bronies will use it for pinkie_pie, others will continue mistaking it for pinkamena).

Why is "Pinky but not bubbly" its own tag even? Just alias all three together.

Previous discussion: topic #183, topic #6300, and an 8 year old admin ruling from RainbowDash at forum #71463. Probably some other times as well.

I disagree with the decision (pinkie_pie_(mlp) straight_hair is more TWYS), but it is what it is.

I voted meh on the update BUR because some of the images have curly hair e.g. post #2532406 and idk if those should keep the tag or not.

Updated

Whoops, I missed that because I blacklisted death, I'll fix the curly hair ones by hand

...yep
Now I'm not a pony expert, but those do look like pinkamena_(mlp) to me

Curly, curly, wet-curly, wavy & curly
Wavy, wavy, wavy.

Pinkamena is straight hair, and just straight hair. No curls, no waves.

Also, Pinkamena implies Pinkie Pie anyways, which goes against the rule of keeping forms separate in the first place.
