Artist tagging help

Posted under General

post #9872633 This is the first time I've encountered this, so I'm asking what to do. The site automatically filled in two artist names for this piece; I'm assuming I should keep both, but I'm not sure. (apologies if this is the wrong thread; while it's not about translation, it is about artists, so it seemed like the best place.)

It's because the two artist entries have shared URLs. It usually means they're the same artist, in which case one should be aliased to the other.

In this case Tamomoko and Taro-k are two artists who share pages and work together. One does the lineart and the other does the coloring, if I remember correctly, so having both tags is right.

ah, I read this after posting my previous comment; alright, I'll keep both
