But what bugs me to all hell is that there seems to be no unified means for artist tag creation across the boorus. For instance if you create a brand new tag for an artist and begin using it here, on Danbooru the same thing can happen and they decide to use a different tag.
Yes, Danbooru is like a tag dictator.
And tag creation itself isn't easy. I plan to add some other candidates for tag, not only pixiv login. twitter username maybe. it seems twitter is quite popular in Japan, and many pixiv artists use it.
Well anyway, I hope this tool becomes a solution all boorus can use, in order so that ambiguity is decreased for artist tag creation and there doesn't exist the problem of boorus using different tags for the same artist.
This tool changes nothing because it's rely on Danbooru. (note: if artist on danbooru has no wiki page, this tool returns nothing) All tags are from there except tags listed in "gelbooru_only.json" file. It's very tiny list of tags found by myself. and that list needs to be extended and frequently updated.
