Reason: All the same artist

Struggled to find their main alias but it appears to be "apsel_bluestar" based on their Patreon name

None of those names seem to be used. Have they been used? I don't think we want to add unnecessary aliases to clog up the tag suggestion results or put unnecessary work on the system.

Those names are being used in the artist's links I provided though.

Also I should probably say that I manually moved a bunch of pics that were tagged with "apseltheblue" and "apselhaven" to "apsel_bluestar". This alias suggestion is mainly for searching reasons on e621, since the artist goes by so many disparate names. I know that was the issue I ran into when searching them on here.

If they're not being used here, though, there's no need to alias them. We don't alias every name an artist ever used to that artist, just the names that have been or are very likely to be used. The "Other names" field in the artist page is there for people to find a given artist's tag when they have multiple handles, by searching their known names in the Artists listing.
