Increasing the rename tag limit

Posted under Bugs & Features

What benefit would this serve, really? If you really want to rename a tag that's over 200 posts, you can just alias and de-alias it. It's not like BURs that aren't artist aliases under 200 posts can be approved by non-admins anyways, so increasing the limit wouldn't help.

Work I tried to rename to the Iris heart tag to add the Neptunia on it. I find the limit of 200 post it’s kind of sucks so yeah

The limit on rename size exists precisely to force you to submit an alias instead. Alias removals like these should only be done in case of ambiguity, otherwise it doesn't hurt to have the alias since we've used the previous name for years.
