BUR #19124 has been approved by @evazion.

create alias aris_(idol)_(blue_archive) -> mischievous_straight_uniform_(blue_archive)
create alias aru_(idol)_(blue_archive) -> mischievous_straight_uniform_(blue_archive)
create alias hifumi_(idol)_(blue_archive) -> mischievous_straight_uniform_(blue_archive)
create alias yuuka_(idol)_(blue_archive) -> mischievous_straight_uniform_(blue_archive)
mass update favgroup:25834 -> mischievous_straight_uniform_(blue_archive)

BUR for idol clothes released on April Fool's Day 2022.

They are managed by their own character tags, but they share a single outfit instead of having separate outfits for each character.
Also, several characters outside of the four direct members of this group have used this costume, but it's not appropriate to use cosplay of someone and they're just using idol clothes.

So for this BUR, I'm going to create tag called mischievous straight (blue archive) to manage them as one.

Changed this from mischievous straight (blue archive) to mischievous straight uniform (blue archive), since that's apparently what the tag was changed to a month ago.

BUR #20190 has been rejected.

create alias miyako_(lawson)_(blue_archive) -> angel's_24_uniform_(blue_archive)
create alias miyu_(lawson)_(blue_archive) -> angel's_24_uniform_(blue_archive)
create alias saki_(lawson)_(blue_archive) -> angel's_24_uniform_(blue_archive)
create alias moe_(lawson)_(blue_archive) -> angel's_24_uniform_(blue_archive)

Ah, I see BUR #19124 has been approved.
In the same vein, I think it makes sense for lawson chartags to be aliased to one outfit, angel's 24 uniform (blue archive).
Currently, this costume tag is well used on all characters in BA.

BUR #20193 has been rejected.

nuke miyako_(lawson)_(blue_archive)
nuke miyu_(lawson)_(blue_archive)
nuke saki_(lawson)_(blue_archive)
nuke moe_(lawson)_(blue_archive)
deprecate miyako_(lawson)_(blue_archive)
deprecate miyu_(lawson)_(blue_archive)
deprecate saki_(lawson)_(blue_archive)
deprecate moe_(lawson)_(blue_archive)

I think an alias can be a signpost for someone who takes a wrong turn.
However, it's probably unnecessary for someone who is already making good use of the costume tag.

These aren't playable character alts and this thread may not be the ideal place to discuss them (it's a pretty minor issue so I didn't want to make a new one), but I noticed that hoshino_(young)_(blue_archive) is currently being used for two different alternate appearances of Hoshino's:

  • The short-haired, vest-wearing version of Hoshino that appeared in a few flashbacks and a picture with Yume in the Abydos story chapter (post #4603774)
  • The ponytail and scarf-wearing Hoshino that appeared in flashbacks in the Final Chapter (post #6445783)

Should we edit the wiki to make it clear that the tag can be used for the second costume as well? Or if not that, separate it out into a different tag? Both tags would be very small and I don't know what the heck we'd call them except hoshino_(younger) and hoshino_(young).

For future reference, cross-category implications are forbidden.

I've added angel's_24_uniform_(blue_archive) to the posts that were missing it.

Nobody voiced any opinion on this so I've edited the wiki of hoshino_(young)_(blue_archive) to match its current usage on Danbooru.

On Pixiv, the ponytail-and-scarf version seems to usually just be tagged with Hoshino's standard character tag rather than the young one, but I don't think there's any advantage to doing things that way.
