Duplicate Keywords - List #8 (Proposal for Permanent Merging and Auto-Conversion)

Here is the eighth installment in my list of duplicate keywords proposed for permanent merging and auto-conversion.

As with my prior lists, I propose that the IMDb community be allowed one week to review and comment on this list before I formally submit it to IMDb staff for action.

Every duplicate keyword (or combination of multiple keywords) on this list has at least 50 titles. The mergers should be made in the direction of the arrows.

Hi keyword_expert -

Thanks for your report above regarding the keyword merges/auto-conversions, all updates have been made, however, I swapped email --> e-mail.  These changes should be live on the site shortly.

Thank again!

@Michelle​ Can we please modify one item on this list?

I have come to realize that "timespan" should be one word (no hyphen). Accordingly, the following change should be made:

one-day  --> one-day-time-span --> one-day-timespan 

Please note that this will require redirecting "one-day," which correctly auto-converts to "one-day-time-span," and changing that to instead convert to "one-day-timespan."

Thank you in advance!

Edit: Done!
