Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

Can an admin change name of
https://e621.net/artists/70371
FROM tarneydraws
TO tarnydraws??

Thank you.

I was looking at uploads at e621 tagged with tarneydraws, and realized
1) the artist's usernames was tarnydraws ,
and
2) artist puts "Tarny Draws" on artwork
{ 2a) first tweet i noticed with "Tarny Draws" is https://twitter.com/Tarnydraws/status/1298337680678432770 , date "Aug 25, 2020".
2b) first Tumblr post i noticed with "Tarny Draws" is https://tarnydraws.tumblr.com/post/644771260616867840/pov-you-called-him-cute , posted "Posted on Thursday, March 4 2021" }

(before then artist put "Tarn" on artworks)

so changed the posts tagged with tarneydraws
TO tag tarnydraws (which already had three posts).

***

I'm guessing the e621 user uploading to e621 was typing artist name from memory,
but their memory added in an "e".

(As far as i can tell, no one is doing art under name of "tarneydraws".)

(if anyone has account at FurryBooru,
post such as https://furry.booru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=2000369
should get artist tag corrected.)

You can request a mass update BUR, or alias
Edit: There is no post with this tag. The tag tarnydraws is used. Why should it be changed? There is no benefit from it.

https://e621.net/artists/70371
is currently
"Artist: tarneydraws ...".
(with URL https://twitter.com/Tarnydraws )

Posts post #2200372 , post #2200373 , post #2200375 ,
post #2200378 , post #2200382 , and post #2200383

WERE tagged with tarneydraws.
(example: see https://e621.net/post_versions?search%5Bpost_id%5D=2200372 )

BUT since artist doesn't use name "tarneydraws" and their username is tarnydraws (NO e)
(see first post in thread for full details):

I changed the artist tag of those six posts
FROM tarneydraws
TO tarnydraws. (EDIT: fixed link typo)

Since
1) https://e621.net/artists/70371 includes URL https://twitter.com/Tarnydraws
and
2) there is no e621 artist entry/page for tarnydraws ("This artist entry does not exist. Create new artist entry."
and
3) apparently there is no artist named tarneydraws (did web searches):

I was hoping
https://e621.net/artists/70371
could be recycled into being artist entry/page for tarnydraws.

Updated

Ahh. Now I got it. Easy fix for that: Create a new artist entry and forget about the other one ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
