That's not entirely unique... I've encountered plenty of artists that only post to Twitter.

But I also encounter some who may have a Pixiv account but doesn't always post a link on Twitter (and vice versa).
So I wanted to make sure if this artist does have one or not.

Yeah, that's true. It's somewhat laborious, but if you have the SauceNao plugin, you can check a certain number of pictures against the database at http://saucenao.com to determine if an artist does have alternate accounts. To doubly make sure, you can also run the images by Google Search as well (also part of the SauceNao tool).

It's what I did, and I didn't come up with any matches against the 10 or so images I checked...

Well, seems like the artist already exist so no need to take my request anymore.
Though, it'll be good if we can have a way to identify artists who use Twitter only, putting aside the artist name.

Yeah, that was my fault... :(

I was trying to go through all of the empty artist tags (i.e. with no artist entry), and see if an artist entry already existed for those posts.

Edit:

Looks like what happened was that toe was an artist tag, and when my script encountered that it removed that and added ntk_(7t5).

I was being lazy with my script (>_<), so I just used the first artist entry found instead of checking for conflicts...

Nevertheless, I've fixed the above...

Also, is "Fumi" the correct reading of 文 here? I assume he's referring to Aya Shameimaru so maybe Aya-chan or Bun-chan would be more appropriate? Regular users can't see artist history pages so I can't ask the original editor of the page cause I have no idea who it is!

I'd say it's an alternate way of "文", just like Fumizuki ("文月") from KanColle. But if the artist does refer to Aya, which is also written as "文", then maybe it should be corrected unless it was mentionned somewhere that the artist called Aya as Fumi or Bun.
Even for me, I can't see who added this as I can only see the various artist names and the URLs, maybe try to contact henmere?

Regarding tsukui kachou: should this line be left on the page? (Not my addition)

Artist who said "Fumi-chan is my legal waifu."

If so, it needs to be updated as the artist's Pixiv intro now reads:

文ちゃん、榛名さんが本妻です

I think it'll be nice if we can leave the old intro as something as "The artist used to say [...]" and adding the new one, to show how the artist changed from loving Aya to Haruna.
