In the animation, Judas & Jesus, the character is known as Maria Magdalena. Whether this is creative liberty or something else, it should be changed to avoid confusion.
EDIT: The tag alias maria_magdalena -> mary_magdalene (forum #239417) has been approved by @bitWolfy.

At risk of sounding rude, how long is the queue? It's been nearly 5 months.

It was made by Germans
In German, Mary Magdalene is known as Maria Magdalena
The film makers simply couldn't imagine that Anglos would anglicize MM's Latin name.
Just like Americanos can't imagine that there exists a world outside of the U.S. borders.

Gonna reverse the alias, since Mary Magdalene is the commonly accepted version in the English language.
Weird situation, though.
On one hand, mary_magdalene is a real historical / religious figure. On the other hand, the only posts on e621 where that tag is used refer to the judas_and_jesus character.
If that changes, the tag will need to be separated into two.
