Changing all Pokemon tags to English localisations

would change all mass updates to aliases if possible, as long as they don't interfere with other Pokemon tags.

It seems the ones being mass updated are minor characters with no existing alias.

Hey, no need to antagonize those of us who use the Japanese names.

Didn't mean to sound like that, sorry

Anyway, I also think it'd be better to go with Leaf instead of Green since that's less confusing and that's actually what Pokemon Masters uses.

Honestly keeping them separate could also be an option, since their designs are different enough. Green could be used for the black dress design, and Leaf for the FRLG outfit.
According to blue_(pokemon)'s (probably outdated) wiki, they're also distinguished by different eye colours, so that could be kept in mind too?

Updated

Japanese names for the characters (especially the main characters) are more consistent, usually more segregated from each other, anime Japanese names are less likely to produce duplicates (small example, There's 3 Anthonys and 3 Marys in the English anime, while they all have different distinguished names in Japanese) and are often the first we know about when first revealed making it easier for tagging new releases, long before the official localization name comes around.

It's always been a slight inconsistency with how the Pokemon names are handled but I always found it made sense. Pokemon are generally consistent across the entire franchise while the characters themselves are interchanged and have multiple variants depending on medium or story, which is also why the characters designs are tagged according to the design/context they happen to be in from the game/anime season unlike Pokemon which usually are stagnant and alone don't usually get tagged with the game/anime introduced.

I don't see much benefit in the English names for named characters. Them being more well-known/recognizable is an obvious, self-explanatory given: this is an English site and most people here are English speaking. Of course the English names are going to be more known. I don't see how that overrides the benefits of more accurate, distinguished archival tagging of the long term (as we have done so since this site's inception), especially when aliases are a thing that shows you the English names anyway.

Part 2 of Pokemon BUR.

I took the implications out as they need a wiki page. Will include them in Part 3 instead.

EDIT: The bulk update request #3137 (forum #170408) has been approved by @evazion.

I'd rather make a jp -> en alias for them, for (the few) people that still use jp names.

The approach that I've gone for above is to switch the aliases for all the characters that had them, and mass update those that didn't. Kind of a "status quo" implementation. As nonamethanks wrote, those without aliases were largely minor characters anyway. It'd be reasonable to include aliases for any characters with a lot of tags now that've just gone under the radar, but otherwise I think it can be viewed as a separate case-by-case issue since aliases for minor characters might rarely, if ever, get used.

EDIT: I've now aliased about every character that can be reasonably justified.

It should also be added that if a character hasn't had any art uploaded in the last 2 years the alias will be immediately removed by DanbooruBot anyway.

Honestly keeping them separate could also be an option, since their designs are different enough. Green could be used for the black dress design, and Leaf for the FRLG outfit.

No, please don't. In the manga Pokรฉmon Adventures, the girl wears both the black dress and the FRLG outfit.

In that manga, she is named Green (English) or Blue (Japanese), but not Leaf. Leaf is a name used in the context of the games.

Part 1 of Pokemon BUR; Unaliasing/Unimplicating

EDIT: The bulk update request #3126 (forum #170312) has been approved by @evazion.

Personally I think both should be allowed

It's either JP tags with EN aliases, or EN tags with JP aliases. We can't have both languages as active tags.

Although, wouldn't it be possible to make some sort of "JP/EN" visual toggle setting? This would please both sides.

BUR Part 3 said:

create implication black_(pokemon) -> hilbert_(pokemon)
create implication white_(pokemon) -> hilda_(pokemon)
create implication lack-two_(pokemon) -> nate_(pokemon)
create implication whi-two_(pokemon) -> rosa_(pokemon)

Is there any reason for these to be implications rather than aliases? These characters are visually indistinguishable as far as I'm aware. Most other pokemon character tags only get separate tags if it's possible to tell them apart at a glance.
