Wiki Aliases And You: A Helpful Guide!

I've taken to clearing out a few of the more ridiculous lists of aliases on the site, and here's a helpful tip about why we have that field in the first place. 
 
The alias field is there SOLELY for search purposes. It's meant to catch cases where people are searching for one thing ("girlfriend mode") when we have a page that covers that topic under a different name ("asymmetrical co-op"). It's meant to help people who type in "DMC" when they mean "Devil May Cry." It's not designed to be a fat list of every single term you can come up with.
 
When you go overboard on alias lists, it's a great joke. But it also makes the site more difficult to use by cluttering up search results with unrelated pages. Please keep this in mind when suggesting new page aliases on the boards.
