Artist alias request thread

Posted under General

BUR #11011 has been approved by @Hyozen.

create alias emp_813 -> emp_(denjipgre)

Their old Twitter account (emp_813) has been suspended; they currently operate a new account under the username "DenjipGre", which is also used as their Skeb username. That said, they use the display names いえむぴ (phonetic pronunciation of "EMP") and E・えむぴ~ (E・emupi~), and their public email address has "EMP.denjiP813" as its username.

@MarqFJA87 You should be using aliases when making artist BURs unless there is a reason to prefer a rename (e.g. the tag name is ambiguous). Your recent ones have all been renames for seemingly no reason.

Sorry, my reading of the BUR guidelines seems to have been wrong. I will do my best to avoid such a mistake in the future.

BUR #11012 has been approved by @evazion.

create alias konotuki -> konagi_(konotuki)
create alias siun_5513 -> shiun_(siun_5513)
rename shiun -> kuboshun
create alias ishiyuki00 -> ishiyuki
create alias 2849250545qq -> hui_zhong_zhi_meng

1. Old -> New display name + stacc, ambiguous.
2. Handle -> Name with proper reading + handle, ambiguous.
3. Ambiguous name as shown above -> Brand new tag name.
4. Stacc/Handle -> Name, not ambiguous.
5. Ugly handle -> Chinese name.

Since forum #215581 received a meh, I'm moving the easier ones to a separate BUR as always and Ill wait a couple of hours before approving.

BUR #10851 has been approved by @evazion.

create alias lumo_7777 -> lumo_1121

I don't have 100% irrefutable evidence, but they share similar names, a similar art style, similar series and characters that they draw, each Twitter account retweets the other frequently, and the Twitter bio for lumo_7777 says "practice ground" and seems dedicated to posting rougher/sketchier pieces.

Bumping this for approval (more than 200 posts) and the noteworthy info that the only account followed by lumo_7777 on Twitter is lumo_1121.

create alias ashida_(ashidas_gareki) -> ashida_(ashida_the_swamp)

"ashidas_gareki" is the artist's now defunct Twitter username; they currently go by 芦田 (Ashida) on their main Twitter account (username: ashidas_swamp), titles their subsidiary account as 芦田のヌメヌメ (Ashida no Numenume), and uses as their Pixiv display name "芦田、ザ・スワンプ" (Ashida, The Swamp).

If you're qualifying the artist, it's better to use real handles or staccs as the qualifier, that means the correct name would be ashida_(ashidas_swamp), but I'd just go with ashida_(futaojisai) for simplicity, both accounts have roughly the same number of followers so they have the same relevance.
