Topic: Tag Alias: jewels -> jewel

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

Reason: Seems like many plural tags are referenced to the singular version for simplicity and unity. Examples - piercings to piercing, trees to tree, etc.

At this time we have 30 tagged as "jewels" and 80 as "jewel." It seems to make sense to combine the two.

It would, wouldn't it? For now I'll change them all manually but we need to start making these aliases happen.

How about a thread/topic dedicated to aliasing plural versions of tags to the singular?

There's quite a bit at present,going from the tag list, and probably even more that'll pop up sooner or later

Like a sticky just for the purpose of short, simple aliases and implications like plural to singular and old artist name to new artist name.

Brilliant! Wonder how we go about getting it done?

We ask an admin really nicely and give them a cookie

I also want a wiki or a sticky called "What was the ruling on that" for the sole purpose of logging in very short precise entries what our rulings were on tag usage, exceptable behaviour, changes. We discuss a lot here and searching the forums can sometimes be daunting. I brought up the alpha_channel debate for the third time on accident

Nice idea. A one-page reference on this stuff would be really, really handy while tagging. The wiki is great, but it can take more time to figure out the proper tag with that than it does to just tag a regular image.
