[APPROVED] Tag implication: bazooka -> rocket_launcher

Posted under Tags

tag implication #9276 m1_bazooka -> rocket_launcher has been rejected.

Reason: Bazookas are rocket launchers. While the wiki page is correct in that "bazooka" has become a common nickname for any kind of shoulder-fired anti-tank weapon, it should not be correct to tag them as such. However, the things tagged with bazooka should usually be tagged with rocket_launcher.

EDIT: The tag implication bazooka -> rocket_launcher (forum #158882) has been approved by @Hillside_Moose.

I've created a few new tags.

I tried making a tag for each type of "bazooka" in Gundam, but I realized that there's no way that I would be able to identify them all since I don't even have any interest in the series. I got so far as to create these two before unassigning them again:
love_bazooka
beam_bazooka
I then create one tag for all of them:
bazooka_(gundam)

I created the following tags for other character/series specific "bazookas":
yae_bazooka
fishbones_(jinx)
chrysm_bazooka

I don't know if any of the above are rocket launchers, shoulder cannons or recoilless rifles, so I'll leave it to someone else to request the implications. I started off by tagging them with rocket_launcer, but I stopped because I realized that I don't actually know what kind of projectiles they fire...

And then there's these:
party_cannon
hand_cannon

There are others where I just removed the bazooka tag and some where I replaced it with either rocket_launcher, recoilless_rifle, shoulder_cannon or cannon depending on what it looked like. Some were clearly AT4, RPG-7 or Panzerfaust-3 though, so I replaced them with that.

BTW, I'm not done yet, but I managed to get it from 30 pages to 9. Of the ones left there's less than 1 page that has an actual bazooka and has retained the tag. I'll be lacking time for a while, but I'll make a new post here when I'm done the implication is ready to be created.

BUR #2087 has been approved by @Hillside_Moose.

create alias panzerfaust-3 -> panzerfaust_3
create implication panzerfaust_3 -> rocket_launcher
remove implication bazooka -> rocket_launcher
create alias bazooka -> m1_bazooka
create implication m1_bazooka -> rocket_launcher

Reason: Panzerfaust 3 is designated with a space, not a dash. Also it's a rocket launcer.

I've cleaned up the bazooka tag to only include actual bazookas (or tubes which can be reasonably assumed to be supposed Bazookas, like if they are being used by soldiers in US WW2 uniforms). We should thus rename it M1 Bazooka.

EDIT: The bulk update request #2087 (forum #159139) has been approved by @Hillside_Moose.
