The bulk update request #10533 is active.

create alias fictional_species (13) -> invalid_tag (0)
Reason: original_species and custom_species are already aliased to invalid and I believe this tag is meant to encompass the same idea, based on what's in it.

EDIT: The bulk update request #10533 (forum #440782) has been approved by @spe.

I think aliasing to invalid_tag would be better, since fictional_species itself has nothing to be replaced with.

True, I was thinking that as well, but iirc this website wants to avoid adding more aliases to invalid_tag whenever possible. I wasn't sure when making the BUR.

We only avoid that when the tag has some functional replacement
We aren't just outright avoiding aliasing to invalid tag because the invalid category exists

That's fair. I've updated the BUR accordingly
