Plural to Singular alias request thread

speaker <-> speakers

Not sure which way it should go. Probably singular, while speakers often come in pairs (in a stereo setup), in many cases only one is shown in a picture.

constellations > constellation
or other way, whichever

fingerless gloves > fingerless glove

I veto the last one, gloves are a natural pair.

strings > string

Probably. Added shoe>shoes.

Either seems fine but I went with speaker for now.

Did string and constellation.

Went plural on fingerless_gloves, and subsequently did glove>gloves.

dragonballs (inert) > dragonball_(object)

Done.

pad -> pads

contrails -> contrail

bigrich said: contrails -> contrail

Done.

Hmmmm. Want to discuss a related issue first: forum #18696

button_badges -> button_badge

badges -> badge

And possible, button_badge Implication to badge.

Did I do it right?

records -> record

cars -> car

pancakes -> pancake?

I'm not entirely sure about this one, since they more often show up as sets, but an alias should be made one way or the other.

All since my last post, done.

castanets -> castanet

Against making castanets singular. The instrument is a natural pair.

Yeah, I guess the reverse is in order.

Aliased to castanets.
