when i posted the BUR there were 2 horrible long spam link posts in this topic right above my request for like, 10+ minutes.

Yeah, I'm glad there is a new page since annoying to have to scroll past them.

BUR #47199 has been approved by @WRS.

create alias vari_(nicoseiga726427) -> saida_kazuaki

same nicoseiga


Anyways I've been noticing a lot of dupe URL results in my wretched spreadsheet were just added seemingly unilaterally by user #366578 seemingly without any real rhyme or reason? And then just stuck around forever because they were added back in 2012? (See the history of artist #21602 / artist #55508 for an example of this sort of thing, I can't remember where all the instances are but trust me it's been recurring.) I usually can't find any link between artist entries besides the (erroneous?) URLs added by said user; do you think it would be ok for me to remove these URLs in these instances?

BUR #47212 has been rejected.

remove alias toridrill -> hattori_shouta
create alias toridrill -> pama

There was zero links between Toridrill and Hattori Shouta before forum #271041 went through. Toridrill is still actively used by Pama, including the jugem URL which was added to Pama back when the artist entry was first created!

Only post that had the arttags changed when the BUR went through was post #1470217. Don't know enough on the artbook to say what arttag it should have.
