Topic: How to Change Artist Tag

Posted under General

There is an artist I like to commission.
With his permission, I've uploaded the art I commissioned to this site.
But he has recently changed is online persona.
I previously used the tag 'danicommissions' for his art.
Now he is using 'ArtCondeDaniel' and I want to change the tag for his art that I've uploaded.

Do I have to go through one by one or is there a way I can just change the artist tag itself?

Additionally, he deleted his old Twitter and made a new one so all his pictures have dead links.
I don't know if the originals have been reposted on his new Twitter, but is there a way I can easily add his Twitter main page as a reference to all his pictures on here so that people can find his Twitter if they want?

Make an alias request to have all of his posts moved from the old tag to the new artist tag.
Insert danicommissions into the "From" section and artcondedaniel into the "To" section.

However, you will need to provide some kind of proof in the "Reason" section, showing that the artist has indeed moved to this new Twitter account.
Maybe something that links this new account to the old one. Otherwise, everything would be hearsay at this point.

Oddly enough, doing my own research, the YouTube account linked on @ArtCondeDaniel as well as the pinned tweet to their Terms of Service still has @DaniCommissions listed as being their official Twitter handle.

You can create a new wiki for the artist tag and include both the deleted Twitter handle as well as the current active one in the "URLs" section.
You can show that a link is dead or no longer in use by adding a - prefix before the url (e.g., -https://twitter.com/danicommissions).

I'm gonna have to go sass him for that one.
lol
Cause he asked me in a DM on Facebook to change the tag since I was the one who posted his stuff here.
LOL
It's a new change for him, so he hasn't updated everything yet.
