Alias spoken_squiggle -> spoken_scribble, imply squiggle_censor -> scribble_censor

create alias spoken_squiggle -> spoken_scribble

• ~80% of spoken squiggle images are drawn with scribbles, not squiggles
• Typing in "scribble" doesn't show the spoken squiggle tag, so it's invisible to taggers & users
• This'll allow spoken_scribble to be found by typing in either "scribble" or "squiggle"

@Unbreakable , which commands need fixing?
spoken squiggle includes scribbles
scribble censor includes squiggles
So, what is the rule with these tags supposed to be?
Why not make it so they all point to scribble_ something?

Any information would be appreciated, as I plan on continuing to make edits and want to be helpful.

I don't think this is necessary at all. With all due respect I doubt anyone but you is this bothered by this

I think more than nobody is searching for squiggles and scribbles, but alright.

You and like two other people? The point is that this distinction doesn't provide any additional value and will just lead to constant mistags because it's not intuitive by simple language's sake. As far as anyone is concerned, these are the same, and are used interchangeably in casual conversation. It's not meant to be read literally as "there is exactly only one person searching for it".

Why are we trying to make tags an inconvenience to use over some pointless technicality?

Sorry, but you're wrong.
The CURRENT language is leading to mistags.
These changes would lead to FEWER mistags, not more.

Are you guys always this combative with people trying to help?

Why does this forum seem so strongly opposed to making simple corrections to the dataset?
Don't we want things to be as consistent as possible? Even if the tags in question are less common?

Does it cost the site a lot of time or money to make corrections to the database?

create alias spoken_squiggle -> spoken_scribble
create alias squiggle_censor -> scribble_censor

alias spoken_squiggle -> spoken_scribble

• spoken squiggle has 7k images, but spoken scribble has 0 (despite ~85% using scribbles)

alias squiggle_censor -> scribble_censor

• squiggle censor has 1 image, but scribble censor has 1.7k images (despite ~80% using squiggles)

Typing in "scribble" doesn't show the spoken squiggle tag, so they're hidden to the user.
Typing in "squiggle" doesn't show the scribble censor tag, so they're also hidden to the user.
This is confusing, and I ended up missing them when I was correcting bar censor false-negatives.

These commands will make finding and using these tags much easier.

a squiggle isn't the same thing as a scribble. a squiggle is a single line that squiggles. if u search for spoken squiggle you find squiggles in bubbles, not just any scribbles, but if u search for scribble censor u find scribbles as censors, not just squiggles.

85% of spoken squiggle images have a scribble, NOT a squiggle!
That means 85% of spoken squiggle images are currently tagged WRONG!
Scribbles are used in speech bubbles WAY more often than squiggles.

My first commands switches the tag being used, so only 15% would be wrong instead.

The same for scribble_censor.
Scribbles are RARELY used to censor images.
Almost all of images censored with lines us squiggles, not scribbles!

So, you're agreeing with everything I said.

Okay, but nobody really cares about the difference between a scribble and a squiggle, aside from the fact that the word scribble can be ambiguous with a doodle or a sketch.

In that case the scribble censor change doesn't need to go through, but the first command definitely should.
