1: Copyrights; Classic Mega Man pt. 1
The Mega Man series has quite a large English-speaking following, large enough to justify using the English localizations over the original Japanese. Users shouldn't have to open up the Mega Man wiki just to find the Japanese names of the characters so they can search for them.
This series of BURs will alias all current Mega Man tags from Japanese to English while also standardizing their qualifiers, which are currently a mixed bag of specific games such as *_(rockman_exe), *_(rockman_zero), *_(rockman_zx) etc. and no qualifier at all. This is especially inconvenient in regards to the more ambiguous character tags such as cinnamon and lumine.
The new qualifier will simply be *_(mega_man) and it will apply to most of the new character tags. Exceptions include duplicate names within the franchise (which will be tagged with specific games to avoid ambiguity) and the multitude of Robot Masters. Each new game in the original numbered Mega Man series, of which there are 11, introduces 8 new Robot Masters and, with the exception of Splash Woman, they all follow the format of "* Man". Barring ambiguous cases such as Aqua Man and Star Man, this incredibly consistent format is enough to exempt these characters and their .EXE counterparts from requiring a *_(mega_man) qualifier.
Lastly, there will be a follow-up BUR to unalias several of the ambiguous aliases once the tag migration is complete. The list is currently as follows:
remove alias fireman -> fire_man
remove alias aquaman -> aqua_man_(mega_man)
remove alias cinnamon -> cinnamon_(mega_man)
remove alias sigma -> sigma_(mega_man)
remove alias lumine -> lumine_(mega_man)
remove alias fafnir -> fefnir_(mega_man)
remove alias prometheus -> prometheus_(mega_man)
remove alias atlas -> atlas_(mega_man)
remove alias thetis -> thetis_(mega_man)
remove alias cepheus -> cepheus_(mega_man)
remove alias ophiuchus -> ophiuca_(mega_man)
remove alias corvus -> corvus_(mega_man)
If you see any I have missed, please let me know in a reply so I can add them to the list.
