1. Ushiwakamaru's Avenger form is also known as Taira no Kagekiyo. In gameplay footage, status screens, summon banners, etc., Taira no Kagekiyo is consistently used to address her instead of Ushiwakamaru. Would a ushiwakamaru_(avenger)_(fate) -> taira_no_kagekiyo_(fate) alias be warranted here?
2. Now that Ushiwakamaru has three variants (Rider, Swimsuit Assassin, and Avenger), would it be appropriate to give her an ushiwakamaru_(fate)_(all) umbrella tag to encompass all of them?
For 1: Thanks to DW being very original these days, Ushi Avenger is yet another of those "well yes but actually no" cases where ??? is it Ushi??? is it someone else??? both but not really but still sort of?????? so I'm at a loss.
I'd say if the character is referred to everywhere as Taira no Kagekiyo then that should be the tag for sure, but an alias can be warranted since that probably means we're never getting "actual Ushi Avenger".
For 2: I guess under the current tagging "norm" for Fate it does mean a catch all should be made, as much as that pains me.

I don't keep up with the Japanese events and what DW's nonsensical logic is regarding characters - I just play in the NA server. As far as JPN-only characters go, I mainly stick to what I see in status screens and summon banners for a character's naming nomenclature.

However annoying it may be,
it's for consistency's sake.
I'd prefer that course of action where we'd have a catch-all tag for Ushi while keeping Yoshitsune and Kagekiyo's individual chara tags. We're looking at two separate characters from Heike Monogatari or the Genpei War but share the same physique and appearance, differing in outfit and memories.
