Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

Most people are aware that if you put "artist:" (without quotes) in front of a tag, it becomes orange, because it's now a special artist tag.
There's other prefixes, too:

But did you know that you can click on the "?" on the left of an artist tag? When you do that, it takes you to a page with a list of the artist's websites. You can even edit it!

What's the point of this list?
- If you like what an artist draws, you can go looking for MOAR (few artists have all of their art on e621)
- If you put the URL of an artist's website in the search box here:
http://e621.net/artist/index?order=date
=> e621 finds you the artist. Magic!

Also, if you connect your account to the tag, you may display pricing and commission statuses right there

Thanks, I didn't know this, for some reason I thought these had to be approved by admins or something. While I'm here how do I edit a tags page? I noticed most of them don't have any information at all on them.

Edit: Wait nope never mind I found it myself.

How do you do that?

Connecting a tag requires account verification :) Just let any admin know who you are.

Pricing and commission statuses can be viewed in your profile
