Topic: Tag alias: water_hose -> hose

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag alias #77257 water_hose -> hose is pending approval.

Reason: Aliases away the rather ambiguous water_hose into hose. This matches the behavior on Wikipedia, which redirects to hose if you search for water hose: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hose

I did not include garden_hose or fire_hose since those are potentially more distinct. I'm not sure if those should be aliased to hose directly or imply it instead. I also didn't include rubber_hose due to the slim but not impossible chance that it was meant to refer to rubber hose style or animation.

Edit: It looks like watering_hose is aliased to garden_hose. I'm not sure I agree with that, but watering is at least a term you'd use for gardening more specifically than a hose just transporting water for any purpose.

The term garden hose isn't explicitly for gardening, that's just what people call that outside hose that a lot of houses have attached to the wall of their house. You know the one, the green textured hose that everyone just wraps it up in a big circle

Yeah I guess hose has plenty of uses that aren't for the house-hose people water their lawns with
Like air pumps and such
