Topic: [APPROVED] Weird pinkie pie tag that somehow got implications

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #5500 is active.

remove implication pinkie_pie_out_of_fucking_nowhere (0) -> meme (52443)
remove implication pinkie_pie_out_of_fucking_nowhere (0) -> pinkie_pie_(mlp) (24233)

Reason: This... isn't a meme? Admittedly I didn't dig deep or anything but I couldn't find any mention of it from some quick googling. Nothing on Know Your Meme either. Not sure why this is a tag.

EDIT: The bulk update request #5500 (forum #375671) has been approved by @slyroon.

Funny, I was just editing the meme page, noticed this tag, and thought this one was weird as well.

It doesn't seem to be a coherent concept, just pictures of Pinkie Pie doing things, it hasn't been added to any post newer than ten years ago, hasn't been added to any posts in seven years, and it's only tagged on 40 posts total. If it weren't for the fact that it was created by an admin (although I don't know if they were one back in 2012), and the implications, I'd have just wiped the tag.

Apparently these implications were created in a BUR? I was surprised given that the last use was 7 years ago.

golly dude, a 180+ entry BUR... man, I feel like at least a few of these entries didn't really deserve the implication. like, even though most of the filthy_frank posts on here are memes, I'm not sure if everything related to it is a meme by default, and lay_the_dragon is kind of a meme tag name, but at this point at least, it acts just like any other general situation tag.

I think you'd be fine just wiping it, the site has changed a lot in 11 years.

Is the part 2 really needed?
If the tag already fell out of use, and that the tag has already been edited out of every post containing it, I don’t think the alias is relevant anymore.

Oh, the tag had posts when I wrote this. Yeah not needed then, I'll remove that
