Topic: Tag alias: overpower -> overpowered

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag alias #72021 overpower -> overpowered is pending approval.

Reason: Following the syntax for tags like "pinned", it makes sense for such a similar yet distinct tag to follow suit. Also I wrote the wiki definition for this new version before seeing that overpower was already sparsely in use to mean the same thing.

would feel better as overpowering rather than a passive participle. - this displays that the action is currently taking place in the image.

overpowered otherwise doesn't display well for twys, and may need tags that are more relevant, such as your pinned example.

Fair but overpowered can also be used more as a state of being or a confirmed fact, while overpowering is more likely to be construed as an action in progress
To be honest I did also consider from the beginning that, online, overpowered could also be used and interpreted in the game sense
My argument is mostly for the unity and similarity in likeminded tags
