There's a whole bunch of shipping tags, such as sonadow, on our site. This isn't directly a problem, yet. However, going forwards, I can see this being an issue because there is no one single way to name a ship pair. It would nice to have a way to have a good idea what a tag "ought" to be even if you don't know if anyone has ever drawn it.
My suggestion is to change all ship tags to the form:
where A and B are the accepted short names here on AMS, A is the name that comes first alphabetically, and B is the name that follows alphabetically.
Thus, if you wanted to see if a really rare ship existed, say Sally and Espio, you wouldn't be in the dark guessing
Thoughts? Downsides?

Salespio
? Salspio
? Espally
? Espially
?" or searching sally acorn, esipo, shipping
and hoping for results, you could just type in espio x sally
and see if results existed right away. Thoughts? Downsides?
