Aliasing itsded → fernut
Link to alias

Reason:

The artist does not appear to go by the alias "fernut" anymore, and all of their currently maintained accounts are under the name "dedreds" or "dedred" and variations of such. "Itsded" is an alias found on multiple sites, including Tumblr (though the blog is now deactivated) and other boorus like rule34.

Strangely enough, while the wiki page does list "itsded" as one of the aliases, it does not function as such in searches, bringing up no results. "Itsded," itself, is its own wiki page, despite having no posts attached. I don't recall if and when it was replaced by "fernut" as the artist's tag.

To this end, "ded_reds" and "dedreds" should probably also be aliased to "fernut." I did find one of their more recent posts tagged as "ded_reds," their Twitter handle, so I believe this would help avoid further confusion.

Current:
https://twitter.com/ded_reds
https://dedreds.newgrounds.com/

EDIT: The tag alias itsded -> fernut (forum #269818) has been rejected by @NotMeNotYou.

When an artist rebrands themselves you should alias the old name to the new one, not the other way around. So...I agree with all this except it should be like this:

fernut -> dedreds
itsded -> dedreds
ded_reds -> dedreds

Fair enough. I was under the impression that the currently-held tag should remain in place. Should I remake the request?

The bulk update request #6142 is active.

create alias fernut (4) -> dedreds (156)
create alias itsded (0) -> dedreds (156)
create alias dedred (0) -> dedreds (156)
create alias ded_reds (0) -> dedreds (156)

Reason: Remade with suggested changes. All supplementary aliases have historical usage, especially itsded.
