artist:mustakrakish (3) -> artist:tres-apples (244)
 
Alias artist:mustakrackish -> artist:tres-apples alrady exists, but as you can see from his FA page, it is not krackish but krakish, without the “c”:
 
This is his active FA: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/mustakrakish  
Last upload at the one that is currently linked in the tag description (https://www.furaffinity.net/user/3-apples/) is from over 1.5 years ago.
 
[DW - Oh! I had to read this a dozen times to figure out what you meant, but I get it - yea, fixed.]

Deviant-Art user-name change.
 
artist:bharb -> artist:lummh

artist:glitchyshadow -> artist:moonatik
 
I did a stupid and I changed the tag on all my pictures manually without considering the people who watch/hide the tag, please fix.
 
[DW - Done]

Got another one with multiple options based on old source redirects to a new name on DeviantArt.  
artist:doublevtovka22 -> artist:colossalstinker (older, example >>145630)  
artist:nutty-nutzis -> artist:colossalstinker (currently in use, example >>1312711)  
Tag for artist:colossalstinker created on >>145630 to serve as target. There are plenty of name changes under nutty-nutzis. If using nutty-nutzis is preferable, please eliminate the ColossalStinker tag from that image.

It’s fine :) In this thread, it’ll be aged in a few days anyway :)

@Derpy Whooves
 
D*mit! Wrong thread!
 
I meant to do this on the general discussion thread, I am so sorry for wasting space!
 
I’ll repost it there. Could the above comment be taken down, please?

PROGRESS UPDATE
 
I’m still working on these and will try to get caught up in the next day or two, but with the new feature that allows people to change their own profile names we’ve had a lot of new, and sometimes fairly difficult to sort out, aliasing issues that are taking a lot of time. Basically, the profile name change is automatic, but all the links, DNP settings, artist tag descriptions, and other things behind the scenes have to be done by hand. For normal users, it’s not a problem, but especially if an artist’s Verified User Links includes their profile here, it can take a bit of typing to get set up again.
 
But, those problems seem to be quieting down, and I’ll try to return to these normal requests as soon as possible.

@FrustrationInExcelsis  
I think you should make a new thread for that, please, maybe under the Tagging Discussion forum, or report it as a separate report and staff will look at it.
 
This thread is for artist aliases, not normal tagging discussions.

Should this be tagged semi-grimdark? I uploaded it as safe when I first thought she had a prosthetic limb, but now that I’m looking at it a bit more closely… well…

Yhanks

@Twilight Schwifty  
I’ve sent you a PM.

This is an old one. Sources:

Old image from artsparkmod, with the old artist tag: >>958503
 
[DW - How deeply fascinating … cool! Done]

artist:sombrasister (DA username) ↔ artist:lara (alleged preferred name)
 
According to the description of >>1647458, this artist wants to be tagged as “lara”, which will cause problems if an uploader in the future looks for the “sombrasister” tag.
 
[DW - Good catch! Done.]

artist:owlscrib -> artist:hulahooplal
 
 
tumblr link
 
[DW - Didn’t do - “please see my reply”:/tagging/request-artist-tag-aliases-here/post/3576425#post_3576425

artist:lisppnsfw -> artist:lispp
 
[DW - I think they’re supposed to be separate - “please see my reply”:/tagging/request-artist-tag-aliases-here/post/3576400#post_3576400

artist:sashaindigo → artist:origardo
 
Artist changed nickname a long time ago. He now has a new signature it can be seen in latest artworks at https://sashaindigo.deviantart.com/
 
[DW - “Please see reply”:/tagging/request-artist-tag-aliases-here/post/3576400#post_3576400

artist:marierg -> artist:hiccupsthenoodle  
artist:needmorefuta -> artist:needsmorefuta  
artist:syntax99 (old DA) -> (artist:syntaxarts <=> artist:syntaxartz (new DA))
 
[DW - Done (that last one was oddly complex]

artist:haifisch_ehrlich → artist:ursa
 
@UrsaeRigor  
in future, please format your post like above.(Hit the quote link on my post to view the formatting)
 
[DW - Thank you]

artist:haifisch_ehrlich → artist:ursa
 
i just made an account and my artworks were upload there a long before so i already have a tag, and the tag that was given to me based on my FA username isn’t used here so i think it’s logical to change it.
 
[DW - Done]

@Derpy Whooves  
I’m sorry; I meant no offense. I just thought it was funny how admins usually show up once mentioned. Again, I’m sorry. My intent with that post was misunderstood.

@Zharkaer - Done.  
@Background Pony #E4CB - Done.  
@Litrojia - Done.

artist:wubcake-va -> artist:wubcakeva  
Admin. Mod. Site Assistant. Regular user. Background Pony.
 
[DW] Done.

@Litrojia  
I knew that would get an admin’s attention.

artist:neonmaible -> artist:neonishe  
New Tumblr username.
 
[DW] Done.
