create alias mengxinggaihuatule -> qin_chi
Reversing the alias to the other way around; there's no reason to "dispose" of the older artist tag when it already exists in perfect condition. When there are two artist entries of the same person, we should ideally alias to the "older" artist tag to retain the artist history of the "older tag".

In general I would agree but should this one be treated in the same manner as when an artist adopts a new name? In this case, both artist tags were based solely on Lofter pages, no Twitter or Pixiv links to be found. Since the illustrations themselves lack any sort of signature, the Lofter username is the only indication of the artist's preferred designation. The qin_chi tag has had its only source page deleted so it may no longer be "in perfect condition," so I think it makes sense to prioritize "current and accurate" over "older." Just my opinion though, not a big deal if it's kept as is.
