Topic: Remove tag implications for Fang the Sniper, Bark the Polar Bear, and Bean the Dynamite

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #5558 is active.

remove implication fang_the_sniper (0) -> sonic_the_fighters (729)
remove implication bean_the_dynamite (50) -> sonic_the_fighters (729)
remove implication bark_the_polar_bear (80) -> sonic_the_fighters (729)

Reason: I don't know these characters, but I'll take Fluffykemos's word for it.

Again, I'm against characters being implicated to single-installment media.
It has the inherent problem of invalidating the implication if that character ever appears in a later-series installment within the same canon-verse. I get that it's useful for people to be able to search specifically for a franchise's New Thing but it creates an ever-growing treadmill of tag associations that need to be reworked every single time a sequel comes out with stuff from The Last New Thing in it.

Should re-add an implication to sonic_the_hedgehog_(series), no?

Good catch, I didn't notice that. Due to limitations with BURs, the above unimplications have to go through first before this separate BUR can be created:

imply fang_the_sniper -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) imply bean_the_dynamite -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) imply bark_the_polar_bear -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series)

I don't think they do. That restriction only applies to aliases. The site won't stop you from creating redundant implications - many such implications already exist.

Huh, I was under the impression that it did in some cases

Error

Error: Error: fang_the_sniper already implies sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) through another implication (create implication fang_the_sniper -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series)), Error: bean_the_dynamite already implies sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) through another implication (create implication bean_the_dynamite -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series)), Error: bark_the_polar_bear already implies sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) through another implication (create implication bark_the_polar_bear -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series))

Yeah that's what I suspected.

you can't implicate tags that are already implied through another tag implication

create implication fang_the_hunter (348) -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) (105734)
create implication bean_the_dynamite (50) -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) (105734)
create implication bark_the_polar_bear (80) -> sonic_the_hedgehog_(series) (105734)

Reason: Adding implication back to the franchise
