(Aliasing dragon_ball_evolution -> dragonball_evolution.)

Implicating dragon_ball_z -> dragon_ball.
Implicating dragon_ball_gt -> dragon_ball.
Implicating dragonball_evolution -> dragon_ball

Here they are again, because damn the aesthetics, I want this done RIGHT.
Off course, if a mass edit is preferred for the *_(object) tag, then that's fine too.

EDIT: Oh lawd, the qualifier'd character tags, too...

I prefer them as one word.

When I bother to think about Dragonball.

I'm fine for leaving it as-is. There's no space indicator in ドラゴンボール, so it's really pretty ambiguous.

+1 for keeping it as dragonball. It's how it's always been spelt.

Always where? Danbooru, or ofikal materials?
(If that's not sufficient, notice there's no overlap between the words in the header of the DB website; see also: DVD RELEASE page.)

Them internets. Also stop butchering English.

You have tried this twice now. Once 4 months ago and then 2 months later you bumped that thread. Neither time it was put through, perhaps this should be a hint?

He's right. Regardless of personal preferences, "Dragon Ball" is the official title. Don't we normally go with official titles here?

The sources cited so far agree that it's officially spelled with a space. Since when do we care about the preferences of "them internets", who can hardly even spell in the first place?

Done so the thread will stop returning. Various _(dragonball) qualifiers too.

Also, the job tasks will take awhile. They're running slow right now and the weapon ones I put through are fairly huge (16k for sword).

Ah, the dog who barks loudest, or whatever that saying was.

I'll get to transferring wikis and such, but one more thing: Would it be good to have shortcuts, such as /db, /dbz, and /dbgt?

(Side note: "ofikal" is a joke between my occasionally pronunciation-impaired friend and [me]; it's habit that I use it. Was there any other too-unorthodox 'English' in my post(s)?)

No, that was it, but you do it a tad too often. Also it's "between X and me", not "between X and I".

As for shortcuts, it makes sense.

Done shortcuts.

Ah, one last thing... *does Bow of Shame*

Assuming that all characters, regardless of subseries, would be qualified by *_(dragon_ball), I changed nail_(dbz) to nail_(dragon_ball) and giru_(dragon_ball_gt) to giru_(dragon_ball).

So, a de-alias of giru_(dragonball_gt) and aliases of...
nail_(dragonball) -> nail_(dragon_ball)
giru_(dragonball) -> giru_(dragon_ball)
...would bring everything up to code.

Hmm... well, I suppose. Didn't really think of it, just added the space to the existing tags.

So, a de-alias of giru_(dragonball_gt) and aliases of...
nail_(dragonball) -> nail_(dragon_ball)
giru_(dragonball) -> giru_(dragon_ball)

Done.

On safebooru the whole gallery disappeared. But, I'm not sure if it's related to the tag changes.

I wonder if it has anything to do with dragon ball appearing when I searched for chartags:1.. copytags:0 -original.

It's showing up there because of an issue with how aliases work. If I alias a general tag (e.g. any tag not in use currently, which is common with aliases) to a typed tag, the type on the new tag is overwritten to general. In this case, I added /db, /dbz, and /dbgt, which have by type and thus overwrite the copy: type on the full tags.

To get around this I'll sometimes tag an image with the alias-from tag and type it before aliasing to the desired tag. I always do this as a matter of course with artists for various reasons.

Otherwise, I'll just put the alias through and when it's done, re-type the tag that lost its type in the aliasing process. Unfortunately, sometimes I forget to do so. In this case, it's because job tasks were taking a really long time, and by the time this actually finished, I'd forgotten about it. Corrected now, though. Ditto on tatakau_shisho

Albert did put a fix in where aliasing from a typed tag to a new untyped tag will carry the type over to the new tag. But the reverse situation (untyped to typed) is an issue.

Not sure why it would have anything to do with safebooru though.
