Topic: [APPROVED] Mustelid BUR (Taxon update)

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #701 is active.

create implication african_striped_weasel (0) -> ictonychine (199)
create implication marbled_polecat (178) -> ictonychine (199)
remove implication meles (486) -> musteline (36551)
remove implication american_badger (129) -> musteline (36551)
remove implication hog_badger (22) -> musteline (36551)
remove implication honey_badger (805) -> musteline (36551)
remove implication ferret-badger (14) -> musteline (36551)
remove implication mink (4051) -> musteline (36551)
remove implication mustela (0) -> musteline (36551)

Reason: This attempts to introduce some of the updated taxonomical relations for the mustelid family. I am not going so far to replace the old system of grouping all of the non-lutrines under musteline just yet. These relations remain entirely intact, but I have not added any new implications (apart from true musteline) to musteline. All new tags are based around mustelid.

- All species that should belong to musteline in the current taxonomy now will imply true_musteline. This will no longer be necessary if we transition fully to the new taxon in the future.
- Gulonine (martens, wolverines, fisher, and tayra)
- Ictonychine (grisons, polecats, and a couple stray species)
- Created an informal species group for polecats, but for now it only includes the ones that belong to ictonychinae.
- Badger tag already implies musteline. This BUR removes the extra implications cluttering up the musteline tag.

The bulk update request #743 has been rejected.

change category gulonine (6019) -> species
change category polecat_(mustelid) (253) -> species

Reason: Not a species tag yet for some reason...

Edit: removed category true_musteline -> species since it's already recategorized as a species tag.
