Moving this in from a separate thread I started without knowing this one existed:
Should tunapest and twilunapest be aliased? They describe the same thing, and as far as I can tell every imaged tagged with one is already tagged with the other.
I would argue tunapest should be aliased into twilunapest – the second option seems a bit more descriptive of the subject matter without requiring to know a priori that Twilight/Luna is sometimes called “tuna”.

And I’m just saying that falls under “word-of-god” territory.
Anyway, that tag isn’t exactly new either, having existed for over two years.
And sometimes artists do Rule 63 versions of pairings, so straight/lesbian/gay shouldn’t be implied either, according to you…
The usual practice has been to imply the tags applicable by default or in the majority of cases and manually remove them afterwards if they don’t apply to a specific image.
