The tag implication #56485 bandage_on_face -> bandage has been approved.

Reason: Last time I checked, putting a bandage on your face doesn't make it stop being a bandage

EDIT: The tag implication bandage_on_face -> bandage (forum #393269) has been approved by @slyroon.

It should be an alias bandage_on_face -> band-aid_on_face, instead (or the reverse, but band-aid_on_face is the one that already has implications linked to it).
EDIT: Uh, wait a sec, band-aid and bandage are different tags here? We're making a distinction?

I guess it makes sense, they are different things with visibly distinct shapes and functions. It's a lot more reasonable than parasol, beach umbrella, and umbrella all having seperate tags.

I think the distinction is pretty obvious when the tags aren't being used wrong:

Bandages

Band-aids

The bulk update request #6867 is active.

create implication band-aid_on_face (1201) -> bandage_on_face (2574)

Reason: Since band-aid already implies bandage, band-aid_on_face should imply bandage_on_face. This implication and the one suggested above will complete (what I decided to call) the "implication diamond":

*               ↗ bandage_on_face ↘
*band-aid_on_face                bandage
*               ↘      band-aid    ↗

I'm just imagining you presenting this to an office meeting room full of snappily dressed E6 users all gathered around a table watching as you draw this out on a whiteboard, and for that alone this gets my complete and total support.

bandage_on_nose has been aliased to nose_bandage, so if we want to continue the naming system for band-aid/bandage_on_nose we should reverse the alias

remove alias bandage_on_nose (1696) -> nose_bandage (13)

Reason: Follow up:
alias nose_bandage -> bandage_on_nose
imply bandage_on_nose -> bandage_on_face
imply band-aid_on_nose -> bandage_on_nose

The bulk update request #6872 is active.

create alias stump_bandage (7) -> bandaged_stump (130)

Reason: Since the topic is still on bandages, i'll suggest aliasing stump_bandage to bandaged_stump, to fit the naming scheme of bandaged_arm and bandaged_leg
