Aliasing evals_(twokinds) -> evals.

Reason: No need for the _(twokinds) part of the tag, no other characters, or things, using the name "evals".

Maybe not right now there isn't, but what about in the future?

Then the new evals would get the associated artist or copyright in parentheses.

So basically how it is right now? I don't see the need to change it.

I agree with this reasoning. Changing it currently benefits no one except for people who don't want to type the extra parens or add a * after the name.

We change it because:

A: It never should have had the _(*) in the first place, we fix bad tagging because it is bad tagging, there doesn't have to be any other reason.
B: It makes searching easier, if you wanted to find Evals you would search that first and not get any results, which may cause you to assume that he isn't posted here.
C: It makes typing the search faster, since it's shorter.

As for other characters being created with that name, we would deal with it in that situation.
Otherwise we should add a _(*) description to every tag we make, just in case of future tag conflicts.

A: I don't think that we have consistent rules about it. Look at all those *_(mlp) tags. They were created long before it could be predicted that such abomination like Equestria Girls will come, and in some cases mlp suffix is still unnecessary.

B and C can be also done by reversed alias.

I generally ignore MLP when discussing tagging issues, since it tends to cause exceptions so frequently.

Do you think it's appropriate to just add unneeded _(*) things to tags?
I could see doing so when tag conflict is highly likely, like if someone made a character with a fairly common name that wasn't currently tagged on an existing image.
But an odd name like "Evals" seems unlikely to ever need a differentiation.
