I feel that killing would be the better tag, but implications are already tied to kill.

I tend to avoid suggesting *ing forms because...well if they are already dead killing doesn't really work grammatically.

That being said, in this case it probably doesn't matter as much since death would probably be more fitting in general for that case. I'd be up for either of them.

Killing and Dead are two different things. Killing is the act of ending their life, Dead is the state of having already had a life ended.

I suppose that's not exactly where I was going with it; bad example and poorly executed.

I'll just say I prefer them because they are shorter. :x

Well, as furrypickle says, that's the point of an alias. It gets aliased to the proper word, but you can type the short word and still get the search through.

I was just playing around. I'm actually leaning towards killing because it seems less awkward to have as a tag tbh. It does seem to emphasize the act itself more, as you've said.

Alright, flipped it to go kill to --> killing and approved it.

Also approved the rest.

Woo. Now I can wipe them off my "todo" list. Thanks.

I'm guessing your to-do list is composed of several thousand pages of implications/aliases
