Implications for all the various Producers from Idolmaster

Then that brings up the question why they are being used differently instead of the same way.

Actually, reconsidering it, Admiral (kancolle) wiki doesn't say it's not supposed to be used in tandem with things like t-head admiral or little boy admiral (kancolle), but I almost never see people use them together, so I assumed they were intended to be separate.

If admiral (kancolle) is actually supposed to be used for all variants of a male admiral, then it should have implications in place like we do for Fate characters with multiple variants. If it's not, then the wiki should say so.

Producer (idolmaster) does clearly say it's an umbrella tag for all examples of an idolmaster producer in the wiki, so I still believe if that's the way we want to use it, the other producers should implicate it.

Admiral (kancolle) is kind of a clusterfuck. I think it was originally meant to be kept separate from named OC admirals, but that was never codified, so it's not clear what it's for. It's also kind of pointless to say that OC admirals shouldn't pollute the main Admiral tag when they would only make up a tiny fraction of the tag. The only issue I see is that including T-Head Admiral or Little Boy Admiral would be a little more of a stretch.

Regardless, it looks like it's not uncommon for P-Head Producer to be tagged as Producer (idolmaster), so it doesn't seem like that big of a problem for Idolmaster.
