The bulk update request #11657 is pending approval.

create alias uvap (0) -> uncensored_version_at_paywall (207)

Reason: Standardizing more of this meta tag family, will have part two since uvas should not be for the unavailable tag.

uvas was aliased to unavailable at source 2 years ago in topic #33944, I think its usage has gotten around enough now that it should stay where it is

ucas and ucap?
uncensored_version_at_source
uncensored_version_at_paywall

I'm capable of reading lmao
But that's at odds for not only using the first letter of each word like every other source/paywall abbreviation alias

I wasn't planning on leaving it with nothing, it would just get uas instead

Edit: Actually no, after double-checking what I was planning, it would not get uas (not just because it already has an alias) because if you type "una" unavailable_at_source instantly appears as the top autocomplete option

I'm generally against changing shortcut aliases in such a way. uvas has been in use for 3 years now, and the people who use it are used to it meaning that one thing.

That isn't really the point, dba has basically stated my point:

Shortcut aliases like this get known and get passed around, whether it be for adding to posts or searching changing existing shortcuts without a good reason is just inviting a lot of headaches

I can tell you I've definitely never fully typed out unavailable at source, I always use uvas
It would be pretty frustrating for that to suddenly go to a different tag with a different meaning for seemingly no good reason

That's fair. I removed that part out but maybe it would just be better to reject this BUR and make a new alias request explicitly for the uvap
