That is very bad thinking.

It's not like I'm calling any shots, here. And there's a reason I said "in my opinion" (edit: Sorry if it looks like I'm angry here. That's what happens without emotes =P).

But honestly, just think about it: It's a tag called saturday_night_fever - and I'm sure there are many others (like me) who have no idea what it means. Why keep the tag if it's only relevant to (what I assume is) a few people?

But just for the sake of picking a side, I'd go for "nuke, then alias".

Do you have the slightest idea what nuking or aliasing even mean because I'm getting the impression you don't.

So your answer is no? That's all I needed to know.

Hmm, looks like I made a boo-boo - I just realized that disco_pose was aliased to saturday_night_fever (thought they were both separate tags, for some inane reason).

In that case, I'm still in favor of replacing the SNF tag completely with disco_pose, and then aliasing it to that.

But ahh, still, my mistake.

I didn't know what it meant, either. Pity you can't make polls.

Arggg, uncultured yesterday-born kids, get off my lawn *shakes fist & waves cane* -_-

I guess this thing is already resolved, but I'll put a +1 for saturday_night_fever in either case - It might be slightly less intuitive for someone who's never seen/heard of the movie, but is actually more descriptive otherwise since it refers to the specific orgin of the thing. That, and I guess I generally have a slight bias for keeping older "established" tags over new ones.

Also, aliases don't quite work that way.

Slightly off-topic here: But what's the general age-range of most of the people here? I have absolutely no idea how old any of you guys are (this fool is but 18 years old).

And I'm gonna have to watch that movie now, 'cause I feel bad for not knowing about it. =\
