Bulk Update Requests

A bulk update request (BUR) is a proposal to change a lot of posts at once — creating a tag alias, a tag implication, or mass-renaming a tag.

Because these changes touch every post carrying the tag, they are not applied directly. They are posted for discussion and then carried out by a moderator.

How to make one

Open a request from Bulk update requests and say plainly what you want changed and why. A request with a clear reason gets approved much faster than one without.

Common commands

• @create alias tag_a -> tag_b@
• @create implication tag_a -> tag_b@
• @remove alias tag_a -> tag_b@
• @remove implication tag_a -> tag_b@
