The tag alias #76721 amputated -> amputee is pending approval.
Reason: Seems to be a synonym.
Topic: Tag alias: amputated -> amputee
Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions
See topic #32505, we discussed what to do with both tags but it seems to have slipped through the cracks and forgotten.
We determined that amputated should mean "any character that has just been amputated" with there being a "visible bloody stump" that can "imply severe_wound".
On the other hand, amputee should mean "any character who is left disabled due to having lost body parts in the past - implies disability, not injury."

Ah, in that case the tag needs some serious clean up, because it seems that absolutely nobody is using it that way. In fact I think it should be renamed, because the distinction is not exactly self explanatory from the name alone.
