The tag alias #52391 digital_organism_(species) -> digital_creature has been approved.

Reason: Also computer_program_(species) -> digital creature

Helps undo ArtistClone24's tag abuse and combines two seemingly redundant (and undefined) tags back into the previously existing tag.

EDIT: The tag alias digital_organism_(species) -> digital_creature (forum #313706) has been approved by @bitWolfy.

Also somewhat related, there is a list of *_(organism) species tags that needs cleaning but nothing substantial has been discussed yet.

Would it be a bit too scorched-earth to just undo all of ArtistClone's edits?

It might be a good idea to make sure digital_creature is tagged on applicable posts before removing digital_organism_(species) or computer_program_(species) from posts.

Well, the intent is to request merging these tags with digital creature, not outright removing them from posts. Especially since there are no wiki descriptions for the tags to help with clarity. They were also being applied to posts where it wasn't evident by TWYS.

Ah- I wasn't aware of those too. I'd probably go with a grouped "microorganism" tag for that list, but I don't know much biology.
