Reason:

Persona is a video game series, and posts including its characters should be tagged accordingly

A persona is also the kind of person someone makes themself out to be, whether through a character, avatar, or just hiding insecurities. Persona the series is named after that.

Currently that definition doesn't matter because it's not used as a general tag nor can I think of a way it could be used as a general tag, it's only used as a copyright tag for the video game Persona.

Why? That would imply that the tag "persona" has an actual use other than the name of the game. What use would that be?

The only way I can see someone tagging persona for something other than that series is if they accidentally leave out the underscore in dual_persona.

In all seriousness I don't see a need to alias persona -> persona_(series) because in real life a persona is simply the way someone acts when around different people. The current persona tag as far as I know refers 100% to the game series, and already implies megami_tensei (the series which Persona spun off from).

+1 to imply video_games

One thing I do think we should discuss though is "persona_(species)". Personas aren't a species lmao. Personas are characterisations of figures from various myths and religions, and they can be humanoid, animal, etc.

I'm unsure of how this could be used as a general tag really, otherwise I would agree
