I just noticed that dude was at some point aliased to male. This was brought up a little while ago, but I didn't see a response: forum post' #393763 (or https://e621.net/forum_posts/393763 , the DText page does not describe a syntax for forum posts). If we look at the wiki pages for these tags, they did not describe similar information. dude was clearly defined as applying only when particular text was present, unrelated to the gender of characters present. See post #2084045 for an example of a post that used to be tagged with dude. If this tag name is not appropriate, is there a way to lookup posts previously given this tag so that a migration to a new tag might be possible?

You need to request a BUR to unalias tags.
