What should we do with "melon" tag?

BUR #30082 has been approved by @nonamethanks.

create implication cantaloupe -> melon
create implication honeydew_(fruit) -> melon

The tag melon is supposedly being used to cover any kinds of melons, yet it's basically just watermelons and cantaloupes that were tagged with such. So I wonder if we should keep it as an umbrella tag as the wiki says so and imply all the melon variants to it, or we should just deprecate it?

Here's a proof-of-concept BUR for implying melon variants to the main melon tag itself. I haven't included watermelon cuz the tag far outnumbers the melon tag, which is probably the reason why I'm more in favor of deprecating the melon tag imo.

BUR #30083 has been rejected.

deprecate melon
deprecate melon_slice

Proof-of-concept BUR as above to see which one is a better option. Also I added deprecate BUR for melon slice tag which has similar issue as described above.

It's a tag for melons. Why would we deprecate a tag for melons.

Hello. It was me you were looking for?

Like 岩戸鈴芽 said, those tags are essential for a specific fruit. Why are you trying to deprecate them?

They want to slaughter melon... Sad! Well there's other fruit

On-topic: I think having a melon umbrella tag is fine.

I searched a thread exclusively about appealing User Grade Negatives or Neutrals but could not find any- Sorry for the inconvinience.

Turns out I have no idea what I'm talking about, nevermind.
