This topic is to report tags needing attention in some way:

-Duplicate tags: can be merged by a moderator

-Incorrect tag type: tags are by default created as a theme; report here if they should be something else.

-Tag hierarchy: eg. if a character tag is still orphaned you can report it here.

-Aliasing: request aliases for tags.

-Tag description: such as plot synopsis for a series, post here as well.

Please post tags as links.

Processed posts will get deleted, so if your posts has vanished all the requests should have been carried out :)

Quote by vitaamin@ other mods/elites: what do we think about characters that might be from more than one series and disambiguation?

I was thinking about that. What if we had them listed like this "Sakura Kinomoto" and then also "Sakura Kinomoto (crossover)"? Or with the original series like this "Sakura Kinomoto (Cardcaptor Sakura)" and also "Sakura Kinomoto (crossover)"? I don't know how many characters are in more than 2 or 3 series, so it might be possible to have the series listed in parantheses for each one?

Or are you thinking of how Sakura is a common name in a zillion series and not every one of them has a last name? Do we already have in place something like "Sakura (series A)"? That would also be useful to make character distinctions more clear.

Eh, I've just been adding (Character) or (Series Name) on them like chiron said. It seemed like the simplest way to do it.

Kawoszowa's posts have been taken care of, and the rest as well.

I always go for Bernouli's solution. It's the easier and the cleaner for me :)

My dear Elites friends, just a quick note from me :)
When editing mangakas, please remember we use 'given name' first and 'family name' second. (e.g.: correct tag is Eiichiro Oda and alias is Oda Eiichiro)
This is the rule, unless we want to change it, of course.
Bye~

What about characters from series that are sequels of others? For example, the Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED Destiny categories contain same characters (Kira Yamato, Lacus Clyne, for example), should we separate the Lacus and Kira from Gundam SEED from the Lacus and Kira from Gundam SEED Destiny? (right now it's kept together, so that every time you tag something with "Lacus" or "Kira Yamato", you end up with both series, which I find kind of annoying ^^;; )

erm but i somehow find it annoying to have same character listed twice, why dont we just get rid of parent tags for those cases?
or, its technically not wrong that the characters are featured in both series so it might make sense to have them both that way people can find each character under both series, even if the wall itself isnt from that part of the series.
alternatively, i like to just merge sequels with the original (like is there REALLY a reason to separate code geass r1 and r2? it annoys me because i just want to view them all at once..)

merged: 11-13-2009 ~ 11:00pm
@bdanime: done
@scampi: done -- except someone else is going to have to merge the tags, somehow i cant do it >_>
@laury84: done
