The bulk update request #10601 is active.

create alias roofus_(artist) (0) -> aldi_(artist) (23)
mass update aldi -> aldi_(artist)

Reason: Artist getting tagged with 2 artist tags, but put "Aldi" on their art.

FA Aldi: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/aldi/

FA links to
https://www.twitter.com/Aldi_aka_Roofus
(and https://youtube.com/aldiakaroofus )

While their BlueSky username is Roofus, all recent art at their FA and Twitter have artist name Aldi on them.

Example: 3 latest at FA have artist name "Aldi" on them:
1) "posted Jan 21, 2025" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/59591805/
2) "posted May 20, 2024" https://www.furaffinity.net/view/56698049/
3) " posted May 2, 2024 " https://www.furaffinity.net/view/56493667/

Latest post of their art at Twitter also has "Aldi" on it (same art as Fa 56698049)
https://x.com/Aldi_aka_Roofus/status/1792643432915014055

(did as BUR in case people want to alias to something else)

I would prefer aldi_(artist) as Aldi is the name of a major supermarket chain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldi

"Roofus" also refers to a character in Fur Fighters. Though his tag only has one image.

How does this sound?

alias roofus_(artist) -> aldi_(artist)
update aldi -> aldi_(artist)

And then we just manually move the current roofus posts over?

Looks good to me.
Changed BUR
from "alias roofus (8) -> aldi (23)" (with 4 down-votes)
to Clawstripe's suggestion for BUR.

I shoved the roofus posts over to aldi_(artist), so no one need worry about that.

"Roofus" is clearly a variant of the name "Rufus", so I can see characters other than the Fur Fighters Roofus potentially being uploaded in the future.
