Artist alias request thread

Posted under General

Can't you just do this:
rename q; -> arai_youjirou
?
This BUR is super complicated. Even if the tag was over 200 posts, all you'd need to do is
alias q; -> arai_youjirou
unalias q; -> arai_youjirou
But it isn't, so a rename does all that.

The request already exists and has failed three times. (forum #227242, forum #227243, forum #235056)

Aliases can't be reversed with a rename (issue #5364) so it fails. The first line shouldn't be needed though since create alias will do it properly.
