If you think two tags should be aliased, please list them and which one should be the main tag.
This can apply to artists too if their names are publicly advertised as the same creator.

animated + animation
convenient censoring + convenient censorship
game console + gaming console
any tags that have “grey” or “gray” in them, and any other tags that are near-identical due to differences in British and American English, if such exist
eyes closed + closed eyes
flat chest + flat breasts
from above + high-angle view
feral genitalia + animal genitalia
full-length portrait + full body
furrification (this tag is used by E621) + furrified
wagging tail + tail wag
the legend of zelda can have the abbreviation tloz as an alias.
my little pony can have the abbreviation mlp as an alias.
happy tree friends can have the abbreviation htf as an alias.
Is there any difference between blonde hair and yellow hair? From what I’ve seen, I can’t tell.
Regarding orgasm and orgasm face - is it even possible to tell a character is having an orgasm without seeing their face? Sorry, I learn about sex mostly from furry art, because I’m not comfortable with real life porn.
There’s an artist who goes by m0non0 on Twitter. When I first added their art, I misspelled it as monon0. Their Pixiv is ものの, just in case.

I have applied almost all of these except “orgasm face” and “from above” (though pup may disagree with me later).
“Orgasm face” is an expression, like ahegao, and not every images will have it (e.g. some may have a smug or straining/clenched expression, or indeed an ahegao one)
“From above/below” are used here instead of e621 “bird’s/worm’s eye view”. I’ve made a bunch of aliases/implication (and fixed a couple uses of the tags) that should help make it more clear

Thank you! Some of these I thought meant the same things judging by images they were applied to, and I still don’t know what’s the difference between “full body” and “full-length portrait”, sorry. Why does “convenient censoring” imply “convenient censorship” though?

Because my dumb ass accidentally implied them instead of aliasing lol. Fixed both of those.

polar bear and arctic bear should be aliased, with polar bear being prioritised because that’s the proper name.
Unless there’s some sort of copyright on “arctic bear” I missed…

genderbend + crossgender (used on E621)
I WAS wondering why that particular bluey pic didn’t get tagged XD. Both done.
Infodum follows:
turns out I hadn’t registered Pup prefers genderbend and it seems that “crossgender” was even previously blacklisted lol. For context, if you see a tag with listed use count higher than the actual images or no actual images, that’s because blacklisted tags are bafflingly still created and have their uses increased when attempts are made to apply them! there were 19 “uses” of crossgender, but only 2 images.
Only mods can fix this by either aliasing such a tag (aliasing them away or aliasing a different tag to them works equally well) or manually directing the software to recalculate actual uses. there does not appear to be a “mass update tag counts” function that is easily accessible. At least if there is one, Pup didn’t know about it when I asked them!

I noticed. It misleads me into thinking some blacklisted tags are valid.
