 * Let’s say I have a load of posts about Wal Mart. Some are tagged “Walmart” some“
   Wal-Mart” …. I’d rather not have two tag pages. Is there an easy way to find/
   replace all these? or better yet, make what would be two tag pages more smartly
   combine into one?

 * First, back up your database.
 * Assume the term_taxonomy_id (NOT term_id) for ‘Walmart’ is 22 and for ‘Wal-Mart’
   it is 66. If you want all posts to be assigned to ‘Wal-Mart’, use this SQL:
 *     ```
       UPDATE IGNORE wp_term_relationships
       SET term_taxonomy_id = 66
       WHERE term_taxonomy_id = 22
       ```
   
 * You can then use WP Admin to delete tag ‘Walmart’.
