Topic: Question regarding aliases and BUR behavior

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

Currently listing some pokémon/pokemon tags, and I found myself with a doubt.

When removing an alias that has other tags aliased to it, will they carry over to the final tag, or I need to unalias all of them, and re-alias them?

In example: pokémon_stadium currently has child aliases pokémon_stadium_2 | pokemon_stadium_2 | pokemon_stadium and implies pokemon
I want to convert pokémon_stadium to pokemon_stadium. The correct way to to this in a BUR would be:

A)
remove alias pokemon_stadium -> pokémon_stadium

alias pokémon_stadium -> pokemon_stadium imply pokemon_stadium -> pokemon

or B)
remove alias pokemon_stadium -> pokémon_stadium remove alias pokemon_stadium_2 -> pokémon_stadium remove alias pokémon_stadium_2 -> pokémon_stadium remove implication pokémon_stadium -> pokemon

alias pokémon_stadium -> pokemon_stadium alias pokémon_stadium_2 -> pokemon_stadium alias pokemon_stadium_2 -> pokemon_stadium imply pokemon_stadium -> pokemon

Is B the correct/proper way? Or does A work just fine?

I assume if I just do A the system will throw me an error and do nothing, but I wanna make sure before doing anything just in case I mess up something.

B is the proper way. Otherwise you'll get an error when you make the BUR. It won't mess anything up, it just won't do anything
