The bulk update request #11417 is pending approval.

create alias adolescent_anthro (1034) -> adolescent (19257)
create alias adolescent_feral (30) -> adolescent (19257)
create alias female_adolescent (987) -> female (2770846)
create alias male_adolescent (786) -> male (2749791)

Reason: Overly specific. We should nip this in the bud before it leads to combinatorial tag explosion.

I think it would be better to alias to adolescent so as not to clog up the autocomplete.

Fair enough. Changed.

I've added female_adolescent and male_adolescent to the BUR, using the same logic of aliasing them to the first word.

Shouldn't those also go to adolescent since that's the subject? Not about using the first word, but which one is the primary subject

Aliases are preferred to go to the first word if possible, to avoid clogging up the autocomplete with results that don't match what you're typing. In this case, it might be worth the deviation given how important adolescent/young is to tag, though, arguably more than male or female if one were to be missing.

Yeah I figured this would be such a case where it should be aliased to the contentious tag.
On the flip side, for clogged up autocomplete, typing chub to get the "slightly" chubby tags is a mess and disorderly. Maybe those aliases should be cleaned up.

Since that's more of a technical matter, I'll leave that up to spe's discretion when he reviews this BUR.

It would probably be preferable to make the edit first instead of waiting for him to do it

I meant that I have no opinion one way or another, so I'll leave the decision of whether or not to make that edit to someone who does.
