Topic: Artist tags ending with _(artist)

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

I see some artist tags have a "_(artist)" at the end of their tag.

Is this intentional? Many also have pictures tagged with just the artists name, so you have to do a search under both tags to find all their art here. That doesn't seem right, but I'm new to the site so wanted to ask.

Some artists also have characters of the same name, so this differenciate between the artist and character.

My personal opinion is that all artists should have the suffix _(artist), though eh.

the _(artist) extension is mainly for artist names that wouldn't work by themselves, like acorn or psycho.

Is there a way to clean it up so that the _(artist) part only shows in the URL? Tat is the word is the appropriate colour without. I just dislike how it looks.
