Topic: [REJECTED] Tag alias: water_fountain -> drinking_fountain

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag alias #64202 water_fountain -> drinking_fountain has been rejected.

Reason: These are the same thing. I think drinking fountain should be preferred over water fountain because it's less ambiguous.

Before I cleaned it up about half of the stuff that was tagged under water fountain was just regular fountains with water (which there shouldn't be a specific tag for, just like there isn't one for white teeth), so having the alias this way round would prevent that misuse.

EDIT: The tag alias water_fountain -> drinking_fountain (forum #379041) has been rejected by @Rainbow_Dash.

Since this alias got rejected, what shall we do with water fountain? There's clearing it out and aliasing go fountain, there's invalidating/disambiguating it, or have it imply fountain if we want fountains specifically of water, but mistagging would be pretty common with it.

Additional comment:
Fountain is implied by chocolate_fountain because of a previous long d.d.m BUR, do we want to keep the implication?
