Osage (Inabakumori) -> Osage (Nukunuku Nigirimeshi)

Posted under Tags

BUR #22381 has been approved by @nonamethanks.

create alias osage_(inabakumori) -> osage_(nukunuku_nigirimeshi)

I want to propose a change to Osage's name for the fact that the character predates her use in Inabakumori's music videos and started out as an original character of Nukunuku Nigirimeshi (illustrator for his music videos/albums). Additionally Pixiv and Twitter both use the Osage-chan tag for her (which literally translates to pigtails-chan, since she doesn't officially have a name). And some of the official artwork she appears in such as post #7080769 and post #6527924 for example are not directly related to any Inabakumori songs nor use the iconic Black and White sketch drawing art style that is commonly associated with his music videos.

Pixiv Tag (おさげちゃん)
The character also has her own 4koma webcomic drawn by Nukunuku Nigirimeshi which is unrelated to Inabakumori.

In case this update goes through, I think the Inabakumori copyright tag should be kept just for the fact that the character has become way too associated with the music artist to be classified as original, not to mention removing the tag would probably make things messy. Feel free to disagree, though, I'd like to hear opinions first.

I'm meh on this BUR not because it's a bad idea to move the qualifier away from Inabakumori, but because Osage-chan is kind of an ambiguous name. It could refer to any OC with twin braids or twintails, and there's also another Osage-chan on the site who has already been qualified (Osage (Houkago Play)). Rather, it'd probably be best to just change the qualifier from "inabakumori" to "nukunuku_nigirimeshi". You could even update the name to be "osage-chan_([qualifier here])".

An alias would also be preferable over a rename: she is still mainly associated with Inabakumori, so there's no need to remove that connection in her name entirely. And for cases where the art featuring her has no connection to Inabakumori in any way, you could tag original instead of Inabakumori.

I've changed the BUR to include Nukunuku's name. That last part about aliasing her name sounds like a good idea to me considering it'd make the character easier to find, should I also update it to alias the current tag to the proposed one?
