Topic: [REJECTED] Tag alias: crimes -> valleygirl

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag alias #61610 crimes -> valleygirl has been rejected.

Reason: Artist changed their name from Crimes to valleygirl. Link to their post about it.

Since the artist is DNP the avoid posting list should probably also be updated + the one post under the valleygirl tag should probably be deleted.

EDIT: The tag alias crimes -> valleygirl (forum #359924) has been rejected by @slyroon.

i feel that both crimes and valleygirl are general enough words that they should probably be aliased to ~_(disambiguation)

but i do agree with the point of the alias; getting rid of a deadname

I can't find the post was, but NMNY (I think) said before that DNP takes priority over disambiguation - if it's art that shouldn't be here it's better that it gets dealt with quickly rather than getting lost in a disambiguation tag for months or years.

Crimes is my deadname

...As in, the one on your birth certificate? Somehow I doubt that. (Although if it was, I wouldn't blame you for wanting to change it.)

I think the main problem here is that crimes sound too much like crime.

crime as a tag seems relatively nebulous, is there any merit to keeping it? If not, it won't conflict with a valid tag, though I can see how it would produce mistags.

There aren't many neat solutions to this problem. We could alias them all to valleygirl_(artist), but if we include crimes and valleygirl in the aliases, those will still generate the same number of mistags. If those are left off, DNP content might go under the radar.

I've approved the request and disagree with making a disambiguation in this case, if the c_DNP tag gets incorrectly applied to one of the other people / characters it's easier for us to see and fix than if the disambiguation is applied and never changed to the proper artist tag on the DNP list. Ensuring the DNP tag gets applied correctly takes precedence.

I don't recall the implication causing problems in the past 2 years it's existed, so I don't think not "fixing" it with a disambiguation is going to suddenly cause problems.

I just flagged 16 posts for being DNP, including ones that have been approved over a year ago. Please make the alias already.

Every single post under valleygirl was art by this artist. This is much, much worse than being slightly ambiguous.

create alias valleygirl (16) -> crimes (0)

This is the wrong way around though, it should be:

alias crimes -> valleygirl
alias valleypom -> valleygirl
