The bulk update request #3402 is active.

Reason: New characters should imply them's_fightin'_Herds; Fred should have an alias easier to remember; and the species is not the surname for Arizona, Velvet, and Paprika, and never were.

EDIT: The bulk update request #3402 (forum #347128) has failed: Error: Antecedent tag must not be aliased to another tag (create implication stronghoof_hoofstrong_(tfh) -> them's_fightin'_herds)

the game itself should imply video_games

Characters from the game can be depicted in a way that doesn't look like a video game, so that implication should be removed.

Fair. I removed that one.

wait, why change the character tags to not use full names?

Because "Arizona Cow", "Velvet Reindeer", and "Paprika Papa" are not the names of Arizona, Velvet, and Paprika; as far as I can look into it, they were never called that and all go by one name.

Velvet's full name might be Velvet Hoofstrong, but I don't think that's 100% confirmed.

oh yeah, okay, that makes sense, then.

I would still alias the old names, instead of mass updating.
People have been using these tags, after all.

I thought that would make an alias automatically. Regardless, I'll add those too.

I don't think the BUR will let you, since those tags have aliases and implications of their own.
ex. an existing alias velvet_reindeer -> velvet_reindeer_(tfh) won't let you request a velvet_reindeer_(tfh) -> velvet_(tfh) in the BUR.
I kind of assumed that you requested a mass update to bypass this restriction.

I'll need to fix it manually. Assuming that there are no objections to it, of course.

So should I change it back to the way it was?

No, don't worry about it. It's fine.

Alright.
I actually planned to make wiki pages for most of the game's characters, since no one else did it yet, which I can't really do until the tags are updated.
Never did a BUR before but I can imagine you guys have a lot to do, so take your time deciding.

Good BUR, but I'd argue that the _(tfh) at the end of Stronghoof's tag is unnecessary.

I reversed it, just in case.

One more question, If I do start making the character wiki pages early, would the wikiname automatically be changed with the new tags? I plan to have them link to eachother and TFH related tags, but I don't want to use the "wrong" names.

A couple more for the bulk update, since there's no more room.

create implication Cupid_(tfh) -> them's_fightin'_herds
create implication Vetr_(tfh) -> them's_fightin'_herds
create implication Nidra_(tfh) -> them's_fightin'_herds

And as another older thread said:
create alias velvet_(tfh) -> velvet_hoofstrongdottr_(tfh)
create alias velvet_reindeer_(tfh) -> velvet_hoofstrongdottr_(tfh)

The bulk update request #7189 is active.

create implication stronghoof_hoofstrong (55) -> them's_fightin'_herds (2705)
create implication cupid_(tfh) (2) -> them's_fightin'_herds (2705)
create implication vetr_(tfh) (5) -> them's_fightin'_herds (2705)
create implication nidra_(tfh) (36) -> them's_fightin'_herds (2705)

Reason: Failed implication correction

Opinions on
velvet_(tfh)
velvet_reindeer
velvet_reindeer_(tfh)
velvet_hoofstrongdottr_(tfh)
velvet_hoofstrongdottr
velvet_hoofstrong
?
It's kinda a mess of aliases and implications. Which should be the main tag?
