BUR #44299 is pending approval.
create alias brandon_(clinical_trial) -> brandon_hoff
I would move them manually, but his last name isn't given in the game and has only been confirmed in a tweet. I feel that it would be easier for people who have only played the game to be able to find posts with him if the tag with the qualifier aliased to his full name.

The tag was made months ago, so you shouldn’t manually rename it regardless.

I see, I see. I've gotten differing answers on that in the past, so I wasn't sure.
Some will argue that it doesn’t matter because it’s a small tag and not likely to affect many users, but there’s a decent chance at least one user will have their searches/blacklist broken. Even if it were a rename instead of an alias, doing it through BUR will update those things so those users aren’t inconvenienced. It’s okay to do it for recently created tags (for example, you populate the tag in about an hour or so only to find out immediately afterwards you spelled it wrong) because it is very unlikely that users will have had time to put it in their searches or blacklists.

Ohhhh. That makes a lot of sense, actually. Especially for a character like Brandon... Thank you for letting me know!
