These 3 tags seem to be used for a lot of the same images barbell_piercing, industrial_piercing and ear_bar and I can't tell if there's enough of a difference to warrant all 3 existing.
Barbell and industrial are already linked, but are they different enough visually to need 2 tags? Or could just 1 cover both instances?
Ear_bar is probably the most intuitive tag to describe this stile of piercing, for anyone not familiar with the terminology, but the tag is also filled with a lot of earclips.
Barbell piercing describes a type of piercing regardless of location (most often nipple piercings, but also navel, pussy, nose and ear piercings), so it should be left out of any consolidation here. Industrial piercing is a specific type of barbell piercing that goes through two holes in the ear connecting them together, hence the implication.
I agree though that ear bar seems to be a duplicate tag of industrial piercing, so one of those should be aliased to the other, with the implication to barbell piercing intact.

create alias ear_bar -> industrial_piercing
+1 to what Obliv said. Although ear bar is being used for some strange-looking helix jewelry in serie_(sousou_no_frieren) so those need to be retagged.
EDIT: I'm done gardening ear bar.

That's the problem, post #7895643 is also an ear "bar". The tag was filled with things like that or post #5564514, it doesn't give me much hope that this alias won't end up with more mistags than it's worth it. I'd just deprecate the tag and point the wiki to the two existing tags.
