Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #3674 is active.

create alias daichi-wolf (0) -> ferrel_warden_(artist) (2)
create alias ferrel_(artist) (0) -> ferrel_warden_(artist) (2)
create alias ferrelwarden (0) -> ferrel_warden_(artist) (2)

Reason: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/daichi-wolf/ "Registered: ... 2009" (latest upload 2011)
their FA daichi-wolf userpage says they moved to
https://www.furaffinity.net/user/ferrel "Registered: Sep 12, 2011" (latest upload two weeks ago)

(there's some art in old gallery that is good and appropriate for e621)

e621 has daichi* tags, but apparently NOT for this artist.

According Ferrel's FA, their username at other galleries is ferrelwarden:
*Sofurry (https://ferrelwarden.sofurry.com/ ),
*Tumblr (https://ferrelwarden.tumblr.com/ ),
*Twitter (https://twitter.com/FerrelWarden ).
*Weasyl (https://www.weasyl.com/~ferrelwarden )
ALL 5 show name as "Ferrel Warden".

His webcomic at https://al-mora.thecomicseries.com/comics// where artist name also is "Ferrel Warden".

His fursona (after move to new FA) is Ferrel "Lee" Warden.

Suggest aliasing artist TO ferrel_warden_(artist) (to avoid tag-confusion with character)
Probably tag character as ferrel_warden_(character)

***
(e621 has no ferrel* tags)

suggest ferrel_(artist) tag (instead of just ferrel) because other Ferrel*/ferrel* at FA:

click for additional details:

1) bunch of feral art with typo "ferrel" (some people in past have copied FA tags to e621 posts)
2) hybrid ferrel (example: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6237861/ says "Squirrel and fennec fox mix")
3) Ferrel Granite Hoof https://www.furaffinity.net/view/48947840/
4) Ferrell Ferret: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/41693476/ (uploader seems to be saying is a wild_west_c.o.w.-boys_of_moo_mesa character) also at DA
5) https://www.furaffinity.net/user/ferrelfox/ (with fursona Ferrel https://www.furaffinity.net/view/3721668/ )
6etc) probably others.
(plus elijah_ferrel character, felix_ferrell artist tag, and kathy_ferrell artist tag, and any furry-version of Will Ferrell (actor/comedian).)

RE: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/daichi-wolf/ (one of his fursonas was Daichi, who was mostly a wolf, but 1 where Daichi was a bunny)
(did quick look through FA:Ferrel gallery and didn't see anyone who looked like Daichi ... ie. character NOT renamed in new gallery)

Hope that covers everything.

EDIT: OOPS, artist and character named Ferrel WARDEN (but somehow I wrote ferrel_WALKER into BUR, so I have corrected the BUR and this post.

EDIT: The bulk update request #3674 (forum #351749) has been approved by @Rainbow_Dash.

Why change categories of tags that are being aliased away anyway?

Why

change category daichi-wolf -> artist
change category ferrel_(artist) -> artist

when this

create alias daichi-wolf -> ferrel_walker_(artist)
create alias ferrel_(artist) -> ferrel_walker_(artist)

will invalidate them anyway?

I was thinking of future uploaders searching tag list (search restricted to artist tags only, with "Hide empty?" turned-off) for daichi-wolf and ferrel*.

In that case, could just manually switch them over now, and be done with it. No need to have the BUR do it since it'll just muck things up there.

Thank you. Have changed those 2 tags to artist category. (edit: and have removed those "change category" lines from BUR)
