Tag Alias/Implications: DB, FF, and Ben 10

Posted under General

Alright, given the new setup for alias and implication submission, here's what I've had standing:

IMPLICATIONS
final_fantasy_tactics → ivalice_alliance
final_fantasy_tactics_advance → ivalice alliance (inc. standing FFTA2 → FFTA)
final_fantasy_xii → ivalice_alliance (inc. standing FFXIIRW → FFXII)
Reason: While only RW and (seemingly) TA2 directly relate to previous entries, the whole endeavor of the Ivalice titles, sharing many similar elements, moreso than the FF series overall, seems enough to warrant a broad "that stuff" tag, in this case the Ivalice Alliance (as seen on recent releases and at the JP site).

dragonball_z → dragonball
dragonball_gt → dragonball
Reason: Character carry-over, same 'world', extension of first story. Par the course implication, far as I can tell.

final_fantasy_xiii → fabula_nova_crystallis
final_fantasy_agito_xiii → fabula_nova_crystallis
final_fantasy_versus_xiii → fabula_nova_crystallis
Reason: This is mostly provisional ATM (though there's on Versus that's 'disappeared'), and since I do not know if Versus and Agito directly relate to FFXIII, I'm proposing the same grouping as the IA above, in that they're obviously more related than the scattered FF-verses.

ALIASES
ben_tennyson → benjamin_kirby_tennyson
benjamin_tennyson → benjamin_kirby_tennyson
gwen_tennyson → gwendolyn_tennyson
Reason: Common names to full names (and the exclusion of a not-so-often-mentioned middle name in the "benjamin_tennyson" one).

EDIT: Added Tag A/I to the title.

ivalice_alliance tags:

Oppose. AFAIK the only thing shared in common among all these games is a general setting and background, but not any actual characters. A shared setting doesn't seem very relevant to Danbooru unless they have more than minor story/background elements in common.

fabula_nova_crystallis:

Oppose, for the same reason as above, and also because these games aren't even out yet.

ben_tennyson → benjamin_kirby_tennyson
benjamin_tennyson → benjamin_kirby_tennyson
gwen_tennyson → gwendolyn_tennyson

I'm in favor of these. We could use more common name to full name aliases in general.

So Evazion / T5J8F8, are you suggesting three aliases for what amounts to a single post at this point (post #300995)? Moreover, I'm not so sure Ben 10 fits the domain of the site well, being an American Cartoon. Maybe it's a grey area as with Powerpuff Girls, but I'd never upload it.

Agreed, the Ben 10 aliases don't matter either way, but I don't see any harm in having them.

Mainly, I'd just like to see more common name to full name aliases. It looks like most characters with a middle name/initial don't have any aliases, so if you try searching for, say, ashelia dalmasca or sabin figaro or asuka langley you won't get any results at all. It can be pretty frustrating when you can't find a character because you forgot their middle name.

Also vote no to the Ivalice Alliance. I know jack shit about Nova Crystalis, but half of the Ivalice games don't have anything to do with each other and those who do have such a scarce if any amount of crossover material that there's little point.
