I've noticed that some artist name (i.e in rhythm game) just an alias. This one causes the original artist with different aliases considered as "different". So I'd like to add this on the guideline;
If the artist name was an alias, the owner's name should be included in tags along with the proper writing in their native language. This one to keep consistency between different artist/alias name with the owner.
Here's the database (mainly Bemani artists):

http://vjarmy.com/wiki/index.php/Jun_Wakita
http://vjarmy.com/wiki/index.php/Naoyuki_Sato

Reason: To keep consistency between aliases. So you could search the track by inputting the owner's name too.

That's all. Discussions?

Isn't these usually already in tags?

No, it doesn't exists on guideline, so I'm proposing this.

What I mean is during the modding process, most of the times modders/BATs would already suggest the mapper to put in into tags so I don't see any reason to enforce it as a guideline lol

For some reason, guideline could be broken under some circumstances. I don't see (a lot of suggestion) so far when the BAT/modders suggests the OP to include the alias name owner.

EDIT: I just noticed some new ranked maps w/ alias artists doesn't have the owner's tag.

I don't see why this shouldn't be included. Especially because people will look for maps under the alias name as well

So enforcing it as a guideline would be good for consistency. It'd just help if there was a working list of who has a special alias

It is totally right, for example 麻枝准 is the same person as key, but if someone knows him only as key, he won't find maps listed under 麻枝准. Should be added, definitely.

OK, that's enough. More discussions further? Or anyone dis/agreeing this?

A consensus has been reached yet nothing solid has been provided. Poke me with a better wording and I'll move this back.

Flaming for now.
