Request artist tag aliases here

@Stoopedhooy  
There you go :)
 
If there’s anything else we can help with, please do not hesitate to ask.
 
Re: Artist Aliasing, jobs are still unusually slow and I’ve been focusing on testing the features on Philomena so I might not get too many more done today, but I’ll keep working on it as time permits and will pick it up again tomorrow.

@Derpy Whooves
 
Much appreciated! c:

FIRST ATTEMPTED ALIAS ON PHILOMENA
 
@Background Pony #1AF0 … failed :( Dev team is working on the fix.
 
Cleanup required  
-artist:whitepone -> artist:piesarts  
DA Name Change
 
Done, fixed, complete. I don’t mind saying, that was a little bit scary. Going to let the dev team do some more work on Philomena before I try using it again for this.
 
@Damaged - Didn’t do. It’s already aliased into artist:sitaart so I’m going to leave it like that for now.
 
@Background Pony #BE14 - Done.
 
@Background Pony #BE14 - Done.
 
@Background Pony #1AF0 - Done.
 
Retrying Philomena:
 
@Brokedownandmadeone - Done.
 
@Valghern - Done!
 
Woo! We can alias with Philomena now!

artist:evlass_art -> artist:evlass

@Derpy Whooves  
Huzzah!

artist:thesombrashyshady -> artist:shady  
Tumblr is dead but the source links still show it’s from the same.

artist:soni-uncensored -> artist:sonigiraldo  
This YCH: >>2125341 (explicit)  
Gives https://ych.art/auction/10383 as the source  
Which has >>2160426 as the finished product. I think soni-uncensored is their profile here.

artist:furnut -> artist:furnut5158
 
Inkbunny

artist:urpone6113 -> artist:urpone
 
Twitter uses the former, everything else (including all 3 tag links, FA, and use by artist on this site) is the latter.

From PM:
 
[Philomena test] artist:6jjcgf0d1etqx1tp → artist:gd_inuk - Done. TEST SUCCESSFUL!
 
[Philomena test] X -> Y - does this work?

artist:ladyneko -> artist:poltergeistcat  
DA rename

Artist:xxcommandershepardxx -> artist:wicked-red-art
 
DA link showing the name change , and the artists account user link links back to her new DA

Is it fine to request artist aliases now given the release of Philomena? If so, do we need to repost the ones you missed from a week back or so?

@Background Pony #8523  
Oh, yes! Very much so.
 
I’ve done a bunch of testing and will start grinding aliasing this weekend, and will work back through the last couple of months of requests to see if there’s any that ended up with bad indexing or other problems.
 
So - yes - very much please do submit requests! I’ll be working through them a lot faster now that we’re on Philomena :)

Don’t suppose I could get the aliases from my artist tag removed? They really don’t need to be there anymore. Will doing this affect the artist tag on any old images that used the old aliases or will they retain my actual tag?
 
(Also if possible remove my old Tumblr link as its a dead source now)

@Derpy Whooves  
Here are some of mine that I posted in here, in case they where missed

From what I previously posted:  
artist:soni-uncensored -> artist:sonigiraldo  
This YCH: >>2125341 (explicit)  
Gives https://ych.art/auction/10383 as the source  
Which has >>2160426 as the finished product. I think soni-uncensored is their profile here.
 
artist:soulyagami64 -> artist:soul-yagami64  
The former is their InkBunny account. The latter is DA.
 
artist:アンノウン -> artist:k_clematis  
Or the other way around. Source is from the former’s pixiv:  
https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/78046262  
The twitter link there links to https://twitter.com/K_Clematis
 
artist:moonraige -> artist:peachesandcreamated  
Source: From >>1062781, clicking on the source gives the following redirects:  
http://moonraige.deviantart.com/art/Fluttershy-Banner-583250307 -> https://www.deviantart.com/peachesandcreamated/art/Fluttershy-Banner-583250307
 
artist:rainbowgeddon -> artist:leechetious  
From dupe report of >>2206689. The source has the following redirect:  
http://rainbowgeddon.deviantart.com/art/vanilla-twilight-trade-662720330 -> https://www.deviantart.com/leechetious/art/vanilla-twilight-trade-662720330
 
artist:青銅竜 -> artist:seidouryu
 
From dupe report of >>41189  
Additionally, from the pixiv source, https://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=2608041, it shares images with the latter tag. “青銅竜” also seem to be “seidouryu”.
 
artist:kagemusha -> artist:daigaijin  
Proof: >>1695284  
Inkbunny source: https://inkbunny.net/s/1575436  

 
So the former appears to be the latter’s InkBunny account name. They still appear to post every now and then, so merging it might be worth it.
 
artist:mushindivinity -> artist:didun850
 
Artist changed their name; clicking on a pic source in the former links to the latter. Example:  
>>911504  
http://mushindivinity.deviantart.com/art/Nightmare-Derpy-Raindrop-sketches-537759081 -> https://www.deviantart.com/didun850/art/Nightmare-Derpy-Raindrop-sketches-537759081
 
artist:harydraws -> artist:hary96  
>>2191963 Links to https://www.patreon.com/Harydraws at source  
>>2191945 Links to the same patreon. Additionally both tags share the pinkie pics >>1761629 and >>1761630
 
artist:sugarbiites -> artist:pomrawr  
>>1619570 has a source that links to “pomrawr”.  
Additionally, clicking on the sources for the former’s tag (>>851788 example) yields  
http://sugarbiites.deviantart.com/art/Flexible-516218556 -> https://www.deviantart.com/pomrawr/art/Flexible-516218556  
artist:softsugar -> artist:pomrawr  
For this image >>658265, it has the redirect:  
https://shark-vomit.deviantart.com/art/Emerald-Song-423905193 -> https://www.deviantart.com/softsugar/art/Emerald-Song-423905193  
On the main page of “softsugar”, it says the new account is “pomrawr” as well.
 
artist:purpleponyafterdark -> artist:mystic blare afterdark  
from the dupe report requesting to update name. They also have another tag artist:mystic blare.  
https://derpibooru.org/images/2198268#comment_8627574  
If this is correct, then it’s the same person.
 
 
artist:ninitakamari -> artist:ninitheweenie  
From dupe report; Clicking on the source gives the redirect:  
http://ninitakamari.deviantart.com/art/human-fluttershy-o-u-o-386682526 -> https://www.deviantart.com/ninitheweenie/art/human-fluttershy-o-u-o-386682526
 
artist:pony-puke -> artist:23obesity  
From dupe report; Clicking on the source gives the redirect:  
https://23obesity.deviantart.com/ -> https://www.deviantart.com/pony-puke?rnrd=265216
 
artist:skyart301 -> artist:skyline19  
The former is their Inkbunny name.  
Also I think SkyArt301 is their Derpi profile. If so, then they confirmed it
 
artist:nomipolitan -> artist:toodaioo  
Not sure if they’re the same, but they share >>1911111
 
artist:ask-lightningbeat -> artist:modocrisma  
From dupe report of >>2225321 (deleted)

artist:cattoy10 -> artist:sirskipper  
See eg. DeviantArt and Tumblr
 
Resubmitting this next one since I think the old site ate it :)
 
artist:loladitz -> artist:loladotz  
DeviantArt username change.

artist:kirbychu555 -> artist:mintkat
 
As fas as I can tell neither Tumblr (with latter name) or DA (with former name) are particularly more of their “main” site, so I’d suggest “mintkat” because it’s how they sign their art on both sites: here and here

artist:dustyermine -> artist:spectralthestrals
 
DA link showing the name change

@Frustration in Excelsis  

 
Additionally, artist:phyrethefyredemon is now artist:phobicalbino
 
Also, I feel that artist:princessmoms and artist:overlordneon should be merged, being as the latter is the only one making art for the former. There should definitely be a blog tag for the former, though, to distinguish material from that specific askblog.

artist:tayzibubblelight → artist:tayzipumpqueen
 
DA name change

artist:taarie → artist:endarie  
taarie’s Tumblr links their DA to endarie

Ok, I’m all moved onto Philomena and all the tools that I use for aliasing (or most of them, at least) are tested and working fine :)
 
I’m working backward to make sure I don’t miss any, and to double check aliases made during the migration to make sure they all ended up the way we wanted them.
