Topic: Tag alias: ocsfa -> ocsda

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

there is also at least one other tag that's been used for their art, the_endosomist, coming from their Dailymotion channel. since the names ocsfa and ocsda refer to FurAffinity and DeviantArt respectively, their tags should instead be aliased to a name they go by more widely. They refer to themselves as "Mangle" and say it's what people probably know them better as in their Dailymotion description, their twitter handle is "Mangle28796488", the platform where they're most active. Both their YouTube and Dailymotion channels have "mangle" in their tag, @Mangles-macro-channel and @mangleocsemail respectively. I'd say the three tags should be aliased to mangle28796488 to match their twitter handle, for recognizability.

Not a fan of going by mangle<numbers> especially since those numbers were just added to not conflict with another username. I would prefer mangle_(artist) but it seems to have already been taken. Though I can see why you chose that path given that there's not that many options.

MangleOCS is another option, gathering that from their Dailymotion channel tag and the fact their FA and DA tags have OCS in them, but they never exactly go by that name particularly anywhere... Mangle_(artist) is not very specific, I hadn't even checked but am not surprised it's taken. That's why I felt Mangle with all the numbers, clunky as it is, may be the best option. It shouldn't throw people off given it is their twitter handle
