remove implication huli_jing (8) -> fox_spirit (2537)
remove implication kumiho (314) -> fox_spirit (2537)
remove implication nogitsune (28) -> fox_spirit (2537)
create implication huli_jing (8) -> mythological_fox (464)
create implication kumiho (314) -> mythological_fox (464)
create implication nogitsune (28) -> mythological_fox (464)
remove implication fox_spirit (2537) -> canine (1268116)
remove implication fox_spirit (2537) -> east_asian_mythology (24774)
create implication mythological_fox (464) -> mythological_canine (54648)
create implication mythological_canine (54648) -> canine (1268116)
remove alias mythological_creature (640122) -> mythology (671606)

Reason: During an extremely long discussion in the Discord server, a few people brought up concerns that fox_spirit may be inadequate for its implications due to frequent mistagging. By recreating the implication chain in mythological_fox, the issue of cleanup is simplified.

I don't see a reason we should remove that alias from mythology. The rest of the BUR looks fine.

The reasoning in the Discord discussion after you went to bed was that mythological_canine and other mythological_* tags could imply mythological_creature and the latter could imply mythology. That would reduce the amount of implications to mythology, keeping things neater and easier to track.

I think it should be an implication rather than an alias, but the alias has to be removed first to make it an implication.
