The tag alias #75939 saurus -> saurus_(warhammer) is pending approval.

Reason: Redundant tag. The wiki pages are identical, and the only posts tagged saurus but not warhammer_(franchise) were a few clear mis-tags.

Should be the other way around.

We don't alias unsuffixed form to suffixed form. Either it doesn't need the suffix to be recognisable, or the alias will cause errors

Either the other way around, or a disambiguation. A suffix is only necessary if the tag can otherwise be ambiguous (i.e. if something else could also use the name Saurus for something), and so the non-suffixed name shouldn't be aliased to a specific one as it would cause mistags, and should be left off if it's not ambiguous; there's no reason a non-suffixed tag should be aliased to a (non-disambiguation) suffixed one. "Saurus" is apparently based on the word "saurian", to invoke the imagery of reptilian dinosaur-like creatures. Currently, there are also tags saurusrequiem (an artist), along with saurus_(afk_arena), saurus_(raid), and saurus_marine character tags, as well as saurustaur being alaised to dinosaur_taur, suggesting a disambiguation may be warranted (assuming at least those are actual individualized characters, and not simply someone's designs used for generic Saurus characters).

saurus_marine appears to be some kind of mutated space marine fan creation, so I guess they're humans who've transformed into sauruses? Regardless, the one from AFK Arena seems valid at least.

I wasn't sure whether a suffix for an unambiguous tag made sense. So I checked another species tag and got bamboozled by t'au_(warhammer). That one's even worse, because every image tagged t'au is also tagged with t'au_(warhammer).
