Please format it like this and provide some sort of source in the future.

artist:paganee → artist:fenixdust
 
They appear to be the same artist; and I do not believe that these names are intentionally distinct.

@Seltonik - Done.

artist:chiruuu → artist:chimeeri
 
Not sure when the name change occurred, but it’s been used by the artist for the past 9 or so months at the very least.

@Seltonik - Done. I went with “artist:dusty-munji” because it’s the main tag in use today.

artist:dustymunji → artist:dusty-munji
 
or the other way around, since DA pics are all higher quality than Tumblr pics rn and anybody searching for her art on here may not know to add the hyphen.

@Brokedownandmadeone - Done.

artist:jindw -> artist:jin_dragowolf

@Pyr0T3ck - Done. It’a always great when someone knows their market, and has a tagline that fits it.

Deviant-Art user-name change.
 
artist:boobieboom-studio -> artist:tittoons

@Brokedownandmadeone
 

 
Done. Thank you for doing all that research - that was a fairly large move.
 

 
Done.

@whpS0nn - Ugh. I hate it when that happens. Fixed.

^ artist:alice31 hasn’t been re-aliased into artist:alicesmitt31, which is causing problem with searching.

Patreon and FA has the ‘s’ in it, and his dA and custom site doesn’t. Not sure which way you want to do that.  
FA source for different sites.

Found this alias while looking for a different image.
 
EDIT: Funny. Alias for the artist of the image I was wondering about.
 
artist:willitfitclop -> artist:willitfit

I think I’m all caught up to here - I’m done with family stuff for awhile, so if you see that I’ve not done your’s yet, sorry for overlooking it and please let me know and I’ll take care of it.

@Brokedownandmadeone  

 
Sorry that took so long. I agree. I’ve aliased every possible tag they could end up with into “artist:passigcamel”. Which after I was done I realized was just two. I don’t know why, but that looked a lot more complex before I started working on it than it ended up being afterwards.

@Brokedownandmadeone  

 
Agreed, but even then they’re still calling themselves “oloxbangxolo” … I made an alias from makoto1996 -> just in case any art from that tag shows up, but right now “oloxbangxolo” still looks like what they call themselves in those places where they are making pony art, so it seems the better name to use for them on this site.

@Sunsper - Sorry for the long delay. I see that is an alternative name for them, but I’m not going to alias this because the artist is still using “artist:oloxbangxolo” on their FurAffinity, which is where all the art we have is from, and no art has ever been uploaded from any source using their alternative tag. So, I would have to create the tag just to alias it, so moving the art to their alt name doesn’t seem appropriate for their current body of work.

@Seltonik - Done. I went with “artist:akainu_pony” since that is their twitter and does appear to be where they’re posting now.

Concerning the recent deletions - Privacy is very important to us, so sometimes requests for artist aliases have to be deleted to preserve an artist’s anonymity.
 
If you are aware than an artist has chosen to not be associated with an artist tag, please respect their privacy.
 
If you’re not aware of this, don’t worry - keeping track of what artists would prefer happen with their tags, and which tags they want to remain anonymous, is our responsibility.

artist:akainu7 → artist:akainu_pony
 
Not sure which one needs to actually be used, but the latter is the newer name.

@Brokedownandmadeone - Done.
