create alias jon_(st05254) -> sagami_jon

This artist tag was changed manually. I already let the user know that he shouldn’t do this again, but I’m unsure of how to properly fix it.

Is adding this alias enough or should the changes be undone first?

An alias is fine in this case because they didn't create a new artist entry.

create alias zhixiang_zhi -> cartonbox_(zhixiang_zhi)
create alias galobox -> cartonbox_(zhixiang_zhi)

Same artist, he has two active Pixiv accounts for some reason. I personally propose CartonBox (with a qualifier) or GaLoBox over the Chinese Zhixiang Xi as a final tag because he also uses the English translation.

Letting others agree or disagree.

create alias odibil -> pandinus

Like forum #231401, a user renamed the artist tag. Might have been the artist himself.

rename blessing_(artist) -> sukiyoshi_(skiaki)

Was a target of a vandalism. Latter name is based on the last recorded name in the artist entry and the stacc name.

Edit: Was also happened at forum #219233 and beyond.
