create alias saber -> saber_(fate)
remove alias saber -> saber_(fate)

I am not a Fate fan. I can name maybe two characters on a good day. When I hear "saber" the first thing that comes to my mind are lightsabers from Star Wars. Sabers are swords. I wouldn't even think of some random girl if I never touched this site (and I don't even know what she looks like).

Is Fate popular? Of course. A lot of people know and love it. But that doesn't mean that a tag like this that has a well-known other meaning outside of a series that not everyone is going to be familiar with, should remain with an ambiguous name.

This was brought up before, to no avail. Maybe this time will be the lucky one.

Just adding my personal experience to this. Before knowing Fate, the Saber vs Artoria thing has heavily confused me, I could never understand their relationship, why there are two tags, where these names come from and are they even the same person. And the fact that saber's wikis makes it sound like an independent character and not one of artoria's "skin"s because it’s old makes it more confusing. Renaming these tags would definitely help to clear things out.
