Plural to Singular alias request thread

Hrm for shoulders see forum #43813.

onion_ring <-> onion_rings

I could go either way with this, really.

buckles -> buckle

I think for food products sold in sets we should stick with plural, mostly for chips, fries, and rings.

Thinking about the onion rings though, perhaps we might want to consider going with a more general tag like fried_rings, since onion rings can look identical to fried breaded squid rings.

Done to plural.

Coconut said: buckles -> buckle

Done.

Agreed, in principle at least (may come across an exception that feels right in the future).

I think I'll stick with onion_rings for now but it's something to keep in mind. fried_rings just sounds a bit odd to me, is all.

cubes -> cube

Done cube

bloomers -> bloomer

or, if that doesn't work

bloomer -> bloomers

Bloomers to bloomer makes about as much sense as pants to pant, which is to say, it makes no sense at all.

I didn't know that.

arms up -> arm up
I think the wiki of arms up should be moved over though.

Pretty sure we discussed this one and decided to keep them seperate for one/two arms up but I could be wrong.

fists <-> fist

Most seem to be both hands clenched from skimming the first 5 pages but majority is tagged fist at 300 or so.

throwing_knives -> throwing_knife

Yeah, I think you're right. See also hands_on_hip vs hand_on_hip and arma_behind_back vs arm_behind_back. It's not often that we make this sort of distinction, because it's a bit ambiguous until you check both and see what we mean, but it's one I think we should maintain here.

fists <-> fist

This one makes sense though, done.

Done

penguins -> penguin

Done.

jelly_beans / jelly_bean / jellybean -> jellybeans

Some dictionary sources and other sites list it as two words, and personally I think I'd side with it being two instead of one. Don't think any other "bean" name has bean together with the descriptive word.

batteries -> battery

Went with battery and jelly_bean.
