Cream soda -> Ice cream float

Posted under Tags

BUR #43597 is pending approval.

create alias cream_soda -> ice_cream_float

It's a soda drink with an ice cream float.
It seems @NWF_Renim has been simply removing it from posts and changing it to ice cream float for a while , so why not just alias it instead of re-nuking once every month?

The wiki states it's for a cream-flavored soda, but 99.99% of examples feature melon or ramune soda, so there's barely any reason to keep it around. We can't tell the taste of a drawing's soda anyways..

Probably a North American vs Non-North American thing, Cream Soda is a specific flavor of soda and commonly an orangish color drink. Only Japan calls an ice cream float or ice cream soda simply as a "cream soda."

As for "We can't tell the taste of a drawing's soda anyways," that's kind of a silly comment given we have tags like cola and root beer which are dependent on either the drink being labeled or the bottle using visuals from major brands.

Edit: the one image of a NA cream soda was moved to cream soda (soda), opening cream soda for alias. While odd, it does match the other soft drinks shasta (soda) and sunkist (soda) and the (drink) qualifier would still keep the existing issue since both ice cream floats and NA cream soda are drinks.

Alright, I understand a little better now.
It just felt incredibly messy to me how it's created and replaced every few months
