@Siknakaliux Should only be an alias, no rename is needed. The purpose of an alias is to leave a permanent redirect from the old tag during searches while rename will move the tag without a redirect. Most or all artist name changes should be aliases; there are exceptions such as the previous name being problematic for search (e.g. ambiguous).

create alias voidroonil -> skipppppy

voidroonil seems to be the now deleted account of the latter, even having a similar alias. Imported images list them both as the artist, so they're likely the same person.
