Removing dead tags aliased in artist page

Posted under Tags

There are two aliased tags on the artist's page: https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts?tags=ddinut
both of which lead to non-existent pages that have not been deleted. These pages will not be updated due to the artist's name changes, and will not be used anywhere.
I would like to request the deletion and alias removal of the pages for [ddiddinut] and [konghi98], that are displayed like:
The following tags are aliased to this tag

Will be possible to removed them?
I want the same treatment as this case. I have a similar reason.(personal email contained)
How can I get help?

Aliases will automatically get removed after a period of unuse, see topic #15484 (or forum #323379 for the most recent post in the thread because for some reason the first page refuses to load for me)

I checked. Thank you for letting me know. How long will it take for it to be processed automatically?
For similar reason to the topic I referred, I wanted to ask for quick processing through admin.

Aliases are retired for tags that haven't had a new post within a 2 year period, meaning 2 years after whenever the latest post is made. If a new post is made to that tag, the time (obviously) resets to 2 years after that new post. An unalias BUR makes more sense for a tag that expects new posts because the real time in which the alias gets retired is indeterminate based on if anyone will upload to this artist tag or not.

I see. Thanks for your reply.
My previous page(artist name) contained personal information and I have now completed the separation between my personal account(not be used for uploading arts) and my pseudonym.
For this reason, I feel difficulty to wait the 2-year period required for the page to be deleted. Therefore, I have requested an unalias. I hope this explanation is sufficient to justify my request, and would greatly appreciate any assistance that can be provided regarding this matter.

You're misunderstanding WRS. Two years isn't a requirement. It's an expiration date. And that date will reset if someone else uploads your art using the aliased artist tag. WRS was justifying why you would want a BUR to remove the alias instead of waiting for it to expire.

The BUR is already made, so the admins will get to it eventually. But most BURS are approved by only a couple admins, so it may take up to a few weeks before the admins get around to approving it.

I see, I misunderstood the situation and thought further explanation about my circumstances was necessary. My understanding was lacking. I apologize for the mistake. Thank you for all assistance. I will wait for the follow-up actions.

It seems the problem was resolved while I was writing this. Thank you for the prompt action.
