create alias xinzoruo -> lyy

same artist.
xinzoruo is lyy's burner account for genshin

Downvoting this one because of searchability and post count, would prefer a reverse alias. Even if that's true (I personally don't know since I haven't checked through) and even considering lyy is a 2013 tag, most Danbooru users are probably coming here looking for xinzoruo for their Genshin Impact content more than their other content - and the activity between both accounts speaks for itself as well.

But lyy is the account Lyy herself uses more often. The name lyy appeared earlier, and lyy had its own weibo x and pixiv accounts,she often uses Weibo to post her life content, while xinzoruo was just a burner account Lyy used to post genshin content on x.If talk about popularity, both accounts are popular.
Setting the artist's primary name to lyy does not affect danbooru users to get what they want, and you can still link to lyy's tag when you search for xinzoruo.
I've put together evidence in this link that they're the same person.https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/7967765?q=xinzoruo

When I said activity, I was referring to art content, not all forms of activity. I don't doubt they're the same person after further looking, but still a downvote from me. The alias would indeed link the two and it would show up on the search bar, and the alias is correct, but the visible tag is what I'm mainly concerned about and how many searches clock in for lyy versus xinzoruo analytics wise. You'll notice I voted in spite of lyy being the older tag by 9 years. In either case, because it's a 200+ posts tag, that's up to the admins to decide. I can only voice my dissatisfaction, that's what the vote system is for.
