Topic: What should be done with these tags?

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

abby_k
bird_jesus
dux
false_prophet
jlvwnnoooo (probably jay_leno too)

Before they begin to be tagged in every post?

As you might know, these tags have spawned from the Twitch plays Pokémon game stream, so they're currently on these posts:

post #445176 post #445177 post #445178

Any ideas?

Should they be aliased to their respective pokemans? Invalidate them? Converted to character tags?

Just proposing this by now, I'll come around tomorrow... I'm sleepy rite now

I suppose they can be considered to be valid character tags. Especially jlvwnnoooo and abbbbbbk(, since those are their names.

That's the one. No way to tell the difference between abbbbk( and any other charmeleon.

Only from the context. The problem is that the character names are the one exception to TWYS, so I still suspect that those are valid under the current rules...

Anyway, aliasing them to a species wouldn't work: since some of them have multiple evolutions.

I suppose just make sure they have wikis and are made into characters tags so that we have an explanation as to why these huge typos are valid tags

This is why I ask, for example:

dux and false_prophet can be character tags (assuming these pokemon have unique traits that identify them, such as freaking out when their master does, or attempts to do, something or being in a group shot with Red/Bot)
bird_jesus should be tagged on posts like post #444705
jlvwnnooo... I don't know what to say about this one...

So far I've seen that this carmeleon is female and has a black collar, but that isn't consistent :/

jlvwnnooo should be Jay_Leno_(Rattata) or some such.

They are definitely specific variations that have notable traits in fanart, such as the chin, or the black collar and lashes, etc. if they lack their distinctiveness but are otherwise portrayed within a Twitch Plays Pokemon picture, especially if they are referred to by name, tag the character.
