Plural to Singular alias request thread

Posted under General

I think I would support hair_tubes over hair_tube, mostly because being used in pairs seems to be visually more common than being used singularly. Of the given images in the hair_tubes -touhou search, the majority are those used in pairs. While there are a few that depict it being used singularly I think it should be noted that most hairstyles that would actually use it singularly will have the tube in a less prominent position and be more likely less shown than in hair styles that use it in pairs (or even sets of 3, the 3rd one being the rear, and thus usually concealed).

alias tools -> tool

Reason: The current alias is the reverse, however, I feel that tools can often be found alone and it seems weird to implicate tools, such as shovels and pickaxes, to the plural in all cases when they are in the singular.

It might be worthwhile to point out forum #30092 for the tools -> tool alias. The definition of the tools tag may have changed since the previous thread though.

Tools has been expanded to include things that are usually singular. Seeing a single screwdriver and tools is a weird combination in practice.
