The bulk update request #11114 is pending approval.

remove implication domino_mask (916) -> eyemask (1664)
remove implication sleep_mask (201) -> eyemask (1664)
remove implication eyemask (1664) -> eyewear (330058)

Reason: forum #434789

Part 2 (how do I attach a BUR to an existing forum?)

alias eyemask -> eye_mask
Imply sleep_mask -> blindfold # duplicate of implication #22786
Imply domino_mask -> eye_mask
Imply eye_mask -> eyewear

Edit: I’ve gone researching and the thing I’m thinking of is called a domino_mask which we already have as a tag. No, what you are thinking of is a carnival mask.

Alias eyemask -> domino_mask
Alias eye_mask -> domino_mask

In the url copy the number after /forum_topics/ and paste that into the "forum topic" field when creating a BUR

The bulk update request #11115 is pending approval.

change category eyemask (1664) -> invalid
change category eye_mask (413) -> invalid
remove implication sleep_mask (201) -> eyemask (1664)

Reason: A sleep mask is a blindfold, you can’t see out of it. It is not an eye mask.
Apart from that this is conversion

Sleep_mask and domino_mask are both distinct accessories that can be grouped together as types of mask worn over the eye area. Hence, the implication of these two to eyemask (or once fixed, eye_mask).

Also, eye_mask currently contain more than just domino_mask so aliasing it will create a difficult task of separating non-domino mask accessories.

So we are saying that an eye mask is any mask the aims specifically to cover over the area of or around the eyes?

Then implicate masquerade_mask -> eye_mask

Changed to neutral vote after reading the domino mask wikipedia article - this actually fits the description of most that are currently tagged under eyemask and eye_mask.

Although I am still not sure about aliasing these to domino_mask. The splatoon examples look more appropriate as mask_(marking) and a few tagged are sleep_mask.

Thinking of 2 possible options:
(1) after cleanup, proceed with alias request eyemask/eye_mask -> domino_mask, or
(2) similarly, after cleanup, mass update eyemask/eye_mask -> domino_mask then set eyemask/eye_mask to invalid tag since it's a pretty ambiguous tag

Sleep_mask already implicates blindfold so it's easy to clean that up, bringing up a mere 3 pages.
Splatoon can be filtered via the search ~eyemask ~eye_mask ~domino_mask splatoon which brings up only 8 pages.

So after cleanup... I personally would prefer the latter option. It's more visible and better at preventing future mistagging in this instance.
I'll modify my part 2 now to reflect that.

And what of masquerade_mask? It is usually portrayed as a fancy kind of domino_mask.

So we are saying that an eye mask is any mask the aims specifically to cover over the area of or around the eyes?

Then implicate masquerade_mask -> eye_mask

I will state that I will die on the hill that a masquerade mask is a type of domino mask and so should implicate domino mask.

The bulk update request #11141 is pending approval.

mass update eyemask -> domino_mask
mass update eye_mask -> domino_mask

Reason: Do not do until eyemask and eye_mask have been cleaned up of Splatoon posts and sleep masks.
Current total pages to clean: ~11 pages at 75 posts per page, including the last page which is almost always short of 75 posts.

Ehh gonna pass on that one. Domino mask appears to be specific to the plain variant worn by superheroes either with the straps or the pince-nez(?)/strapless versions. This is very much distinct from the complex designed and/or decorated versions which define the masquerade_mask tag

Very well then... thoughts on changing masquerade_mask to carnival_mask?
