Reason: Don't exactly have the time to go digging up other things so I'll just keep it small and simple: There are a number of Goku tags and this should be changed to be a more specific tag.

why don't we just use son_goku as the main tag? generally it's preferred to just use a character's full name over using <character>_(<series>)

Fair idea. Piccolo should be moved to Piccolo_Jr. or Prince_Piccolo then, since he's the son and inheritor to King_Piccolo. I'm just not sure which to do?
I'll add moving Son_Gohan and Gohan to Son_Gohan_ii since technically Goku's grandfather was also named Son Gohan.
Also adding the Brief family. I'm not sure that Vegeta was ever stated to have taken Bulma's family name, but Trunks apparently did so I figure it's better to call him Vegeta Brief than Vegeta IV.

I think "King Piccolo" and "Piccolo Jr." are the names most often used, but even ignoring those, "piccolo" should be disambiguated since that's a musical instrument.

son_gohan_ii

should be good, if we ever get posts with Goku's granfather, I think the tag grandpa_gohan would probably be best.

well, Dr. Brief's family don't actually have family names in the original text, I'm not sure if anyone outside of the Son family does, "Brief" is Dr. Brief's full name. some of the earlier localization give characters last names but they don't do that anymore.
Videl actually notes how uncommon it is for people to still have family names during The Great Saiyaman saga.

also if a character's prominent enough to probably not be mistagged their fist name (or firstname_(dragon_ball) if necessary) should be aliased to the main tag so that it shows up in the autocomplete when people are searching/tagging
