Duplicate Keywords - List #68 (subgenre and related keywords) (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 list for fellow contributors to review first and raise any objections or questions. I will wait at least 28 days before changing this post to a "problem" post and asking IMDb staff to make the proposed changes.
The mergers and auto-conversions should be made in the direction of the arrows.

Since I wrote this list several months ago, the keyword for-grown-ups-animation has been significantly boosted, to 1450 titles. I wonder if this was done by IMDb staff, since that keyword also appears on the official list of suggested subgenre keywords (something I didn't realize until today).
At any rate, I still think "mature-animation" is the better keyword, and it also was the more organically popular keyword before staff created "for-grown-ups-animation." But I do want to point out that merging into "mature-animation" will also require changing the official list of subgenre keywords.
