Artist tagging help

Hi! During my last round of uploads, I had discovered two artist tags that appear to be used as the same person (loveeater and shu_(pixiv2361016)). On closer inspection, these appear to be two different Pixiv accounts with differing styles and media choice. I am not sure if this is an artist alias, a previously shared account, or if its a wiki/tagging error on this site. I have only recently started to upload in earnest here, so I'm kinda new with handling incorrect artist tags.

The issue can be found in the following posts:
* post #1544220 is tagged with artist loveeater. Its source link goes to a Pixiv profile named "S H U" (link ), yet Danbooru's source field displays "pixiv\loveeater".
* post #1187854 is also tagged with loveeater and is rightly tagged bad_id as evident in my attempt to follow its source. Though I could not find this picture under S H U's account, I'm pretty certain that, given the chosen media and style, this is his work.
* The source field for every post with artist tag shu_(pixiv2361016) displays "pixiv\loveeater", but will go to S H U's Pixiv.

The Pixiv member url for loveeater in the artist wiki goes to a different Pixiv account (link) where the artist nickname is ジオ, and, as previously stated, has works that appear different in style and media. Doing an artist search on Danbooru for this account leads to the artist page for nayutaro.

What should be done?

post #1625763's author. Apparently Korean, goes by 香無凉 on Pixiv. I'm unable to copy the Korean name from their blog.

I managed to copy the Korean name from her blog: 향무량. The 香無凉 name from Pixiv looks Chinese.

Google probably can't be trusted, but FWIW Google says the Korean name is "hyangmulyang" and the Chinese one is "Xiāng wú liáng", which bear resemblance to each other so I assume they're related.

The Korean characters give the Korean pronunciation of the Chinese ones. Perhaps hyangmulyang or hyangmuryang?
