mob_(Pixiv or stacc qualifier) and higurasi or higurashi_(ren_higurasi_).

Thanks fam, I see someone added that. I considered it but artist help page said not to use stacc names because they were a default thing.

His current name on Pixiv is "ミ茶(ミチャ)" which can be read as "micha". But his Twitter handle is "mitcher_meier" (can't check the actual page because of the ongoing Twitter issues) while his Fanbox handle is "mitya" (conflicted with the more well-known "mitya").

What name should be chosen if we need to alias the current tag?

Added more information from related pages (profile descriptions, Weibo posts). These are not all pages, but it is more difficult to find more.
The user does not have one nickname. On Weibo, it looks like the name of the cycle and the character. I recommend taking it from the main twitter (AMAS337).

I decided to use Lehmann for them. Thank you so much for your help! Weibo does not like me.

I have a bit of an unusual question. I've been uploading some official artwork from The Idolmaster Shiny Colors game, but I'm unsure whether to tag an artist or not. tomari_(veryberry00) did the original character design for the game, but I have no idea which CGs she has or hasn't worked on, so I'm afraid to flood her tag with game CGs that were drawn by an art team and not by Tomari. What artist tag should be chosen, if any?

This is kind of a grey area. I usually look for an attribution in the illustration, associated commentary, or if it's an artbook, collection, album art, etc at the level of the volume. If there is one, I'll tag that person (often, but not always the character designer). If there isn't an attribution, I'll usually just add artist request, make sure the title of the original source (artbook, album cover, etc) is named in the source or the commentary (adding it in a translator note if necessary), and if future information allows it to be added, hopefully it will be. Unfortuantely, staff artists on official art are very often not credited.

Thanks, I'll see what I can find. I'm fairly certain that Tomari stopped working on the game's assets at some point, so I'll err on the side of caution for now.

This artist is called じんじ (Jinji), which is pretty easy by romanization standards. However, there are multiple other artists on Danbooru with that same name, and this artist does not have a Twitter or anywhere else whete an alternate name that could be used as a differentiator could be.

So I am unsure of what to do.

In these cases, the Pixiv ID can be used as a qualifier. Name then jinji_(pixiv_94305117).
