The bulk update request #5608 is pending approval.

mass update quippy -> quip_(foxinuhhbox)
create alias quip (0) -> quip_(disambiguation) (0)
create alias quippy (83) -> quip_(disambiguation) (0)
create alias quippie (0) -> quip_(disambiguation) (0)
create alias quip_(character) (0) -> quip_(disambiguation) (0)
create alias quippy_(character) (0) -> quip_(disambiguation) (0)
create alias quippie_(character) (0) -> quip_(disambiguation) (0)
change category quip_(disambiguation) (0) -> invalid
create alias quippy_(foxinuhhbox) (0) -> quip_(foxinuhhbox) (0)
create alias quip_the_kangaroo (0) -> quip_(foxinuhhbox) (0)
create alias quippy_the_kangaroo (0) -> quip_(foxinuhhbox) (0)

Reason: While the kangaroo fursona of FoxinuhhBox is nicknamed "Quippy", the character's name is just "Quip". (post #3788443)

However, there are multiple characters also named Quip and two other characters named/nicknamed "Quippy" or "Quippie".

Huh, there are fewer Quips than I thought.
Unfortunately this BUR is likely to be rejected

7 month edit: Also yeah the number of aliases are very excessive

This seems excessive. The only tags in this list that have ever been used are quippy, quip and quip_(foxinuhhbox). It's an uncommon enough name and a common enough character that just typing quip will show any confused taggers the way in the autocomplete.

hello, quippy here. I'm confused about what the issue is. I only use one character tag dating back to the beginning of my character. character:quippy
Unless I'm just misunderstanding? Is this to help people find my character in case they are looking for him?

we're moving the characters tag over to a tag that makes it more clear who exactly its for, since there are a few other characters with the same name and they have been mistagged before.

_{quip is also just, like, a word, although it doesn't seem like anyone's tried to use those tags like that.}
