Children's day vs. kodomo no hi - should they be aliased?

Posted under Tags

It might be worthwhile making this an implication with kodomo no hi -> children's day. It'd take some cleaning of kodomo no hi, but Japan's version of the holiday has very distinct aspects of celebrating it as it's evolved from their older holiday Tango no sekku or alternatively called boy's day. It was the counterpart to girl's day (hinamatsuri). Some of their iconic things for the holiday is the koinobori especially like post #5553718 with the black carp (father), red carp (mother), and blue carp (traditional son, but later 1st child and additional ones for additional children). Also wearing the samuari kabuto (helmet) or paper kabuto (post #2105611), displaying samurai dolls, and serving kashiwa mochi (post #2714117).

The clean up would be simply removing from kodomo no hi the images that don't display the traditional Japanese celebratory items, but keeping them within the broader children's day tag since they still reference children's day.

Even if they are kept separate, something should be done about the name. Currently they mean literally the same thing, so having them separated on a weird technicality and just by language is ridiculous (plus will lead to people tagging the wrong one).
