create alias pixiv_id_4528489 (10) -> shibaxiao (21)
create alias pixiv_id_8548115 (7) -> bigshine000 (313)
create alias pixiv_id_36067019 (6) -> yuyuitudou (25)
create alias 2covj17keozuwk6 (0) -> yuyuitudou (25)
create alias pixiv_id_90153 (3) -> kemokemo030 (19)
create alias pixiv_id_83844525 (2) -> keykids (20)
create alias pixiv_id_82663717 (3) -> sakesame_(pixiv) (6)
create alias park_(pixiv_id_15159543) (3) -> park_draw (84)
create alias park_kr (10) -> park_draw (84)

Reason: Those artists already have an artist tag and still tagged with pixiv id.
Pixiv_id_[num] is just a placeholder and hard to remember. So, aliasing them to their other (and more known) name is better.

pixiv_id_4528489: is shibaxiao. Their Twitter has the link to this pixiv ID.

pixiv_id_8548115 : Check the source link under bigshine000. It leads to this Pixiv account.

pixiv_id_36067019: Check the source links of post #3553967
pixiv_id_36067019 = 2covj17keozuwk6 (old Twitter username) = yuyuitudou (current name)

pixiv_id_90153: is kemokemo030. From their Twitter

pixiv_id_83844525: is keykids. Their Pixiv has the link to their Twitter account, which has keykids as the username.

pixiv_id_82663717: is sakesame_(pixiv). Literally that's their name on Pixiv

park_(pixiv_id_15159543): is park_kr. Check the link to Pixiv on post #2596220
Aliasing both park_(pixiv_id_15159543) and park_kr to park_draw because it's their current username,.

EDIT: The bulk update request #8180 (forum #405604) has been approved by @scaliespe.

An obnoxious thing on Pixiv is it seems that two people can have the same name.

And/or be nothing more than an emoji or Unicode character.

Yeah, treat the IDs like telephone numbers. There can be many people named John Smith.

That's the case with Park. At least one person from Pixiv shared the same name, and have an artist tag here.
Twitter usernames are a little better coz you can't share the same username, and it's still more recognizable than random numbers.
(except when they decided to make their username contain only random numbers)
