Reason: Followup

alias thundercats_2011 -> thundercats_(2011)
imply thundercats_(2011) -> thundercats
mass update jackalman -> jackalman_(thundercats)
imply jackalman_(thundercats) -> thundercats

I created and populated the thundercats_1985 tag today so that all three series (which all have quite distinct character designs) would be easily searchable. So since it needs an implication I figured I'd do a broader Thundercats BUR.

We usually use brackets around year names in copyright tags (alvin_and_the_chipmunks_(1983), teenage_mutant_ninja_turtles_(1987), etc.).

The rest is implying more minor characters to the series and characters that only appeared in one specific series to said series. Let me know if you think any of the unsuffixed ones need *_(thundercats) disambiguations (or if you find any that I missed).

Speaking of which, jackalman does need that suffix, I found a couple mistags on him when going through posts.

One more issue that I don't really know what to do with is that some the mutants (namely jackalman, monkian, and vultureman) have different names in the 2011 series, even though they are essentially the same characters and are treated as such on the wiki. This is only an issue with one post right now, of kaynar, who is essentially jackalman. They go back to their old names for the 2020 series.

Updated

The bulk update request #8455 is pending approval.

remove implication snarf (38) -> thundercats (995)
mass update snarf -> snarf_(character)
create implication snarf_(character) (0) -> thundercats (995)
create implication snarf_(species) (40) -> thundercats (995)
create implication snarf_(species) (40) -> furred_scalie (33621)
create implication female_snarf (5) -> thundercats_(1985) (0)

Reason: Part II: The Snarfening

Snarf is both a character and a species (the tag for which I just created), and we do have a few posts of Snarfs on here that aren't Snarf: a few OCs and "Female Snarf " a one off nameless character. IDK what to do with the tag for her, maybe female_snarf_(character)?

I also don't know what do to with the base snarf tag. It could be disambiguated, or maybe the character should actually just be left as Snarf. We do have tag pairs like that, but mostly for series (e.g. sonic_the_hedgehog and sonic_the_hedgehog_(series)).

Not sure I'd have called snarf a felid. It looks more "generic mammal" with a bit of bat-like qualities mixed in for good measure.
