Artist tagging help

Posted under General

Placing this here to avoid starting another thread, even though this will be a bit more than simply artist name translation:

The tag zabuton contains two different things: three images from an artist goes by 布団 (from Pixiv) or フトンスキ (from their own site), and four images for a type of cushion.

Was considering seperating the artist with zabuton_(artist), but that tag already exists for a different artist (only one image, that didn't get approved, for an artist by the name of 春辺ざぶとん on Pixiv).

Ideas on how to sort this all out?

Artist name reads クモ (Kumo) but that is already existing artist so after reading the wiki and checking the existing Kumo on pixiv I added kumo_(pixiv) but now I am confused whether that was a smart idea or not.

Pixiv = http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=1067992

That's a tough one, since their pixiv ID is just a random string of numbers, and no alternative site is given. In general, _(pixiv) is a rather bad qualifier, since almost every artist has a pixiv profile. But in this case, I think it's the least of all the evils to choose from.

As an aside, their art is rather bad and I wouldn't exactly rush to upload more.

I was indeed looking for more links (homepage and such) but there was none indeed. Thanks for the info.

Yea, it is rather poor. Was just Suika's arm and Yukari's gap that was somewhat 'funny' in that picture, aside that nothing outstanding on the pixiv page. Oh well.

Pixiv nickname: 颯
Pixiv username: 27142714

Since he's male, the most logical reading is Sou. I made it sou (pixiv1185845).

Already has a tag pecora*, but the asterisk conflicts with the search options and you get pecora as well. Should I just leave it as is, or change the artist to the username?

I'd go with the twitter account pecoratta, even though it's inactive now.
