Cleanup of the "version" tags

Question

Currently there are a multitude of tags for questions about alternative movie versions. First of all, the tags versions and alternate-version, which have largely the same tag descriptions and usages (some questions even use both tags). Then there are the less frequently used movie-edition and directors-cut (which is more specialized, but could easily be covered by a broader tag).

Since the current situation is overly confusing, how to proceed with those tags?

EDIT: Since the appraoch proposed in NapoleonWilson's answer has been unanimously accepted by the community, I'd hereby ask the moderators to make directors-cut, versions and movie-edition synonyms of alternate-version and tag this question as status-completed when done.

Answer 1

Since versions, alternate-version and movie-edition seem to cover the same topics, I'd propose to merge them into a single tag. Though I'm yet unsure what to call that tag. versions seems a bit too generic (yet, it's Movies & TV, so what else could it mean than a movie or TV show version?), so maybe alternate-version might be a better choice. Likewise I'm not sure if to make the other two synonyms of the new tag or delete them completely. The latter would be cleaner but would result in mass edits (though, there aren't too many questions yet anyway).

Then the question remains what to do with directors-cut. It covers a more specific case of alternate version. But then again it's covered equally well by the broader tag and it being too specific isn't a good idea either, since this opens the question if there should also be tags for "Special Editions", "Remastered Versions" or "Special Fan-Approved De-Remastered Non-Director's Cuts". I would thus propose directors-cut to be a synonym of the new single version tag (here a synonym is more appropriate than deleting, since Director's Cut is a common term likely to come up again as a tag).
