create alias pieliceofficer -> audreychen

Accidental duplicate created, tried to verify if artist was pre-existing and it wasn't until the last upload that I found a duplicate to track back to the original artist tag.

Resolved at forum #389390. For future reference, either press "Request alias/implication" at the top of your screen to make a request for someone else to review here or in the topic of the forum post I linked if you're going to accept it on your own.

Same artist but they don't link their SFW twitter (cobwvmeti) to their NSFW pixiv (zhan jie wang). So I want to see what others think because I'm not sure if we just leave artist entries separate in cases like that where it seems like they're keeping a separation between their SFW and NSFW profiles. The fanbox connected to their pixiv does use the name cobwvmeti too though so I guess they're not really hiding it? I have two more artists like this to follow up with too.

Normal expectation is that if an artist is making an effort to separate their profiles, then we should respect that and not alias them together either. I'll leave this as a meh purely because the name is uniquely identifying but it's pretty obvious from looking at their profiles that they want it to be a secret or difficult to find. I prefer we keep these separate and write a wiki that mentions keeping their SFW/NSFW profiles separate without directly linking or mentioning what the other account is (AKA don't do what you did with forum #389295, I had to change those wikis).
