(I don’t know if this belongs in this category, but it isn’t technically an alias or implication :U)

Analon (aka toomanyboners) is defo an artist, but rn it’s considered a character tag

Those are the same exact tags. Some sites use artificial typing by keeping the prefix on the tag, but we use actual typing by telling it to put the word under a different category.
If there's a character by the same name, we need to move the character out to their own tag, which also means moving the artist out as well. Analon would need to be sorted to analon_(character) and analon_(artist).

The character is the guy seen in post #1455713. Any of them featuring this lizard will need to be moved over, while the ones without any artist tag will need to move over to the _(artist) tag.

The tag needs to be separated and the artist one should go to 'toomanyboners'. The artist uses that name on their tumblr page and is still active there, while the 'analon' FA account has been untouched for years.

Looks like it's the same situation regarding his manalon tumblr too.

analon is now disambiguated to analon_(artist) and analon_(character). I also switched wolfalon and rhinolon to their respective *_(analon) tags for good measure. I'm a little unsure about the decision to alias toomanyboners (the Tumblr from which this artist posts art) into analon (AFAIK the artist's fursona and Twitter handle), and would like to see it reversed.

I propose the following aliases (and/or mass-edits)
analon_(artist) -> toomanyboners
analon_(character) -> analon_(toomanyboners)
wolfalon_(analon) -> wolfalon_(toomanyboners)
rhinolon_(analon) -> rhinolon_(toomanyboners)
