Topic: Tag conflict: Toad

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

I say that we need Toad_(character) and Toad_(species).

Battletoad
Toad from Mario
A toad as a type of frog.

So, toad the character, and toad the species are currently sharing a tag.
A tag that implies amphibian.
So, the mushroom man from Mario, named toad is now an amphibian.

This probably needs fixing, I assume it will need some admin intervention to do so.

Not quite accurate, they both fall in the same taxonomic group.
It's easiest to just say they're both amphibians.

As for the tags, I think that Char:toad and toad_(species) would be sufficient.
Or the other way around, but there's no reason that we can't make one or the other just "toad".

I would say make "toad" (unappended) be the species and "toad_(mario)" be the mushroom-headed shorties. That, to me, seems the most sensical, since anyone looking for "toad" is likely going to be looking for the amphibian.
