The bulk update request #8709 is pending approval.

remove alias coleoidea (0) -> coleoid (5594)
remove alias dibranchiata (0) -> coleoid (5594)
remove alias coleoidean (0) -> coleoid (5594)
remove implication octopodiform (3627) -> coleoid (5594)
remove implication decapodiform (2072) -> coleoid (5594)
remove alias octopodiforme (0) -> octopodiform (3627)
remove implication octopus (1882) -> octopodiform (3627)
remove implication vampire_squid (40) -> octopodiform (3627)
remove alias decapodiforme (0) -> decapodiform (2072)
remove implication cuttlefish (83) -> decapodiform (2072)
remove implication squid (341) -> decapodiform (2072)

Reason: This can be streamlined, yeah? Put all the cephalopods in the cephalopod tag. Makes things simpler, especially if someone has a fantasy cephalo-thing they don't have to go "Hm, this kraken is mostly squidly but it has a vampire squid membrane and this says those are in separate categories so idk where to put it."

Followup:

alias octopodiform -> cephalopod
alias decapodiform -> cephalopod
alias octopodiforme -> cephalopod
alias decapodiforme -> cephalopod
alias coleoidea -> cephalopod
alias dibranchiata -> cephalopod
alias coleoidean -> cephalopod
alias coleoid -> cephalopod
imply squid -> cephalopod
imply cuttlefish -> cephalopod
imply octopus -> cephalopod
imply vampire_squid -> cephalopod

you need to add

imply squid -> cephalopod
imply cuttlefish -> cephalopod
imply octopus -> cephalopod
imply vampire_squid -> cephalopod

to the followup

Also squid was just unaliased from decapodiform recently, and there are pages of posts under decapodiform without it.

If someone with unrestricted edits could script add squid to everything under decapodiform -cuttlefish before this goes through that would be great.
