Topic: [APPROVED] artist Drazza updates

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #10548 is active.

remove alias caelunatic (0) -> drazza (3)
remove alias drazzapaws (0) -> drazza (3)
create alias drazza -> drazzapaws

Reason: I'm the artist in question and wanted to know if some aliases could be fixed. The first thing is that I think caelunatic should be removed, it was old username that I was testing out for about a month or so before I reverted back to drazzapaws/drazza. It has nothing in relation to me or my art anymore so I see very little reason for it to still be aliased. Final thing is that drazzapaws is currently aliased to drazza but drazzapaws is the correct artist tag so it should be swapped around. It's what most of my nsfw art socials are named with the exception of FA (stuck like that) so I'd like if the alias was updated to reflect my preferred handle.

EDIT: The bulk update request #10548 (forum #440982) has been approved by @spe.

The bulk update request #10558 is pending approval.

create alias caelunatic (0) -> drazzapaws (0)
create alias drazza (3) -> drazzapaws (0)

Reason: The rest of the story.

I suspect the reason create alias drazza -> drazzapaws was tacked onto the post the way it was instead of being added into the BUR itself was because it threw up an error whenever Drazza tried to post it. That would be because there's no guarantee that the BUR would execute the lines in order. It could indeed try to alias drazza to drazzapaws when drazzapaws was still aliased to drazza. Think of the snarls that would have caused. Instead, we'll need this followup BUR.

Yea that was exactly the problem I had when I tried to submit it originally. I wasn't really sure how to fix that.

That's understandable. In this case, all you'd have to do is state in your reason that a followup BUR would be needed. Throwing in a little section giving the lines for that BUR would be good as well, so you or someone else will have them all ready to copy/paste into the followup BUR.
