Aliasing Guild_Wars_2 → Guild_wars
Link to alias

Reason:

As far as I can tell, it's not considered good practice to separate between iterations of the same setting. For example, the different digimon seasons are all separate canons and we don't tag those. We don't even have a tag for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon even though the setting is super popular.

There are some cases like the Final Fantasy games, FNaF, and MLP/EqG, but they are more the exceptions rather than the rule. The issue is we'll always have some users who insist on specifying world_of_warcraft:_mists_of_pandaria because it happens to be the most recent expansion at that point in time and they have a character released in that expansion. However, most of the time we really don't care about that searching-wise as it quickly becomes out of date (such as the several expansions that came out after it) or more usually, it's irrelevant from the start.

On a more related note, I played Guild Wars for about 5 minutes once so my knowledge of the game is pretty limited. Is there anything wrong with these implications?

• norn -> guild_wars
• asura -> guild_wars
• sylvari -> guild_wars

Other than the fact a lot of asura stuff is tagged with Guild_wars_2? (haven't played the games either).

[color]Approved OP and the implications I listed above.
