Is this a valid tag? I'm not sure if this refers to a specific species, I suspect the term occurs in multiple series.

All posts in the tag refer to the gilded dragon species by lizet. That being said it may be smart to append _(lizet) (ie, gilded_dragon_(lizet)) to the species name in case there are other gilded dragon species out there that would need tagging. Not a huge priority though because it doesn't seem like there have been any mistags yet.

That seems like it would make the most sense, since it isn't an especially unique species name. Is there a quick way to rename the tag rather than having to manually change all 61 posts?

An alias or mass update request would do it.

Ah, thank you!
The bulk update request #12006 is pending approval.
mass update gilded_dragon -> gilded_dragon_(lizet)
create implication gilded_dragon_(lizet) (0) -> dragon (421457)
Reason: Preemptive disambiguation, since 'gilded dragon' is a common enough sounding name that it may be used in a different context. All current uses of the tag refer to the dragon species created by Lizet.

I'm not sure that dragon design is distinct enough to warrant a tag. We don't create a new species tag for every artist's depiction of a common creature, only when it's different enough from existing concepts (e.g. felkin). I think it should be aliased instead.
