Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

Several hundred pokemon implications at once. Something like this was bound to happen.

I wonder if there's any other bad ones? Probably not, since most Pokemon have unique names, but with 700+ species it's pretty easy to overlook something..

Electrode, gloom, persian and ditto are the only other ones that are also words.
Of those, persian could be a problem, since it's a breed of cat, and a race of person(though the cat is the more likely to be tagged).
In theory I could see electrode also getting tagged, but it seems unlikely to happen in reality.
I don't think there's any use for a gloom or ditto tag, aside from the pokemon of course.

Edit: Am I a nerd?

Yeah I'm sure this happened when I was cleaning out the alias/implication approval queue after it had stagnated for roughly 2 months. There were hundreds to go through, with the vast majority being pokemon implications.

Yeah, you're right. I don't think the other three are common enough to cause problems, but as for persian...:

And there might some others that I didn't spot. We're going to need some disambiguation for those.

We also need a golem + nintendo cleanup, as it looks like people removed pokemon without removing nintendo.

Fixed, thanks for pointing it out.

vvv That one's gonna be tougher to clean (will need to check which of the non-pokemon golems are from games), but I'll start working on it.

and golem + videogames too, I assume?

That's harder, since golems are popular in games.

if it's not accompanied by the name of the game then it can be safely removed

I think golem has been fully sorted out, but we still have to do something about persian.

Since something like 95% of those are Pokemon, maybe we should keep it as the main tag; and disambiguate the rest under persian_(cat)? Because if we do it the other way around, there'd be very few images left under persian.
