Duplicate Keywords - List #18 (Proposals for Permanent Merger and Auto-Conversion)
Here is the next installment of my lists of proposed keywords for permanent merger and auto-conversion.
I am posting this for fellow contributors to review first and raise any objections or questions. I will wait at least seven days before changing this post to a "problem" post and asking IMDb staff to make the proposed mergers.
The mergers should be made in the direction of the arrows.

Hi @keyword_expert -
These keyword merges and auto-conversions have now been made. The changes should be live on the site shortly.
Cheers!

I just realized that "horse-riding" and "horseback-riding" are the same thing, except that "horseback riding" is the American preference, while "horse riding" is the British preference. Since IMDb favors American usage over British usage, I have adjusted the keywords to favor "horseback-riding."
