Request artist tag aliases here

@TexasUberAlles  

 
That is really unhelpful. None of their images on the site link to that DA, and I can’t click that image and get a DA link.
 
Now I have to search the sources for the artist, and if that fails go to DA and use their search tools.
 
It takes a process that could be as little as 2 or 3 minutes and makes it a “Ok, now I have to do [thing]”.
 
.. And of course all we have on this site is the artist’s Tumblr links. So now I don’t even know if that DA screencap is even them.
 
… And of course the artist’s own link to their own DA profile from their Tumblr profile is a broken URL.
 
… And you reversed the tags in your request.
 

 
It really helps if you take the time to make sure your requests are well formatted, and provide actual links to the evidence, not screencaps.
 
Done.

@Background Pony #F7CC - Done.
 
@Background Pony #F7CC - Done.
 
Caught up to here, audit of the interregnum continuing …

artist:taneysha3 -> artist:taneysha

@Litrojia - Done.

artist:itsspoopsb -> artist:spoopygander

artist:suismal -> artist:andacraft
 
Former: (tumblr)  
Latter: (DA, ko-fi, picarto, IG)
 
Hard to tell since no one place has a tremendous amount of art: Tumblr is really the only one with the former name, but is pretty much the only name I could find they signed the art under, posted more recently than the others, and it has more art than their other locations, including other Tumblrs. But the latter name seems more consistent and numerous, pretty much the only name I’ve seen in more than one place. They don’t seem to be posting much art on any site anymore so I don’t think it’ll get any clearer. Sorry :’D

Now I can’t tell if you simply made a mistake and are just behaving like this because you’re embarrassed, or if you intentionally fucked with the links like that to troll me or to screw up the artists tags.

@Derpy Whooves  
Yes, that makes perfect sense, on account of I’ve spent so much time in this thread deliberately fucking with you and providing intentionally bogus links.
 
If I cut/pasted the links backwards, it kinda seems like “Hey, you got the links backwards” would be a more useful and appropriate response than a tirade acting like I was somehow an asshole for streamlining the investigative process for you by showing that the artist’s DA page literally says they used to be called Treebabby but now they’re called MeadowMood.

@TexasUberAlles  
I’m sorry if I was grumpy when I responded, but you did not streamline anything. I need the link, not a screen cap. If you do not provide the link, I have to find it myself. Next time please provide the link to the DA, not a screen cap of it.
 
I know this is all for fun, and we’re not supposed to treat this as if it was serious or work, but I do try to take this stuff seriously, and after all the really good submissions you’ve made that one kind of hurt, and to hear that you thought it was streamlining the process for me just leaves me bewildered.
 
Please don’t do it again. It’s really hard to work with information when it’s presented like that.

artist:sketchbrigade -> artist:el
 
They just set this up, so I imagine this is the tag they wanted.

artist:moozuamary -> artist:moozua
 
Back at it again with twitter url name variation

artist:_nnanmin -> artist:yuniuni11
 
Boy oh boy, twitter url

@Dragonpone - Makes sense, done.
 
@Background Pony #F7CC - That artist has a very specific way they want their multiple artist tags arranged, so … long story short; Done.
 
@Background Pony #F7CC - Done.  
And when you’re done with your Twitter url, good news! We’ve got MORE Twitter url!
 

artist:zizkavonmikser -> artist:tu-kierownik  
(tag not [yet] extant) artist:zizka-von-mikser -> artist:tu-kierownik  
(tag not [yet] extant) artist:celestrator -> artist:tu-kierownik  
(tag not [yet] extant) artist:jakierownik -> artist:tu-kierownik
 
dA name change  
Also on their dA profile, they link their Tumblr account zizkavonmikser, their Twitter celestrator, and their Blogspot jakierownik

artist:marshmerry -> artist:skylacuna  
(tag not [yet] extant)
 
dA name change

artist:thearticpegasus -> artist:celticsphinx  
(tag not [yet] extant)
 
dA name change

artist:magnesium–oxide => artist:casanova-mew
 
DA name change

artist:hobilo25 → artist:hobilo

artist:joannedragon -> artist:jouigidragon  
Joannedragon has more images tagged than Jouigidragon, but I can only find artist pages with the latter name.

artist:spritecranbirdie -> artist:alias
 
this artist is most well known on youtube, where his channel is called alias. he signs all his work as alias, and the alias tag has more images.

@Background Pony #FDAD @Background Pony #FDAD @Background Pony #FDAD  

others created the tags, here’s the post.

Doing a bunch of pm/report sourced aliasing …
 
• artist:lightingfireflames -> artist:moonsheid - done.

Depending on how you want to go about it:
 
artist:groggyghoul -> artist:forbiddenghoul  
Twitter handle change. Thing is, just going to https://twitter.com/groggyghoul/ doesn’t work, and going to https://twitter.com/[write anything here, it doesn’t matter]/status/############### directs you to the appropriate account. So, assuming the validity of sources on past posts on Derpi, for example from >>2060401 (deleted), you can see the name change.
 
artist:cassettepunk -> artist:forbiddenghoul  
Accounts listed in their Twitter profile
 
However, because artist:groggyghoul is already aliased to artist:groggyman you might instead want to do the following:
 
artist:forbiddenghoul -> artist:groggyman  
artist:cassettepunk -> artist:groggyman
 
DW - Done.
