Artist tagging help

Updated the artist's page. Please use basic names: normal_puppy (普通小狗). twitter #1419970687637213185 (the image signature).

Yeah, I was planning on it. I just came here to ask for help with romanization with 普通小狗, as it turns out. Do note that I was not the original creator of this artist page, so I wouldn't have known what to look for. Thank you!

yanmian

言眠没本参

Normally I wouldn't ask for romanization help for what looks like a pretty direct romanization, but this current name is too ambiguous with yan mian to be allowed to stay.

Add weibo ID to the first one. This ID (kirkkland) is strange, but I don’t see any other options.

Actual name: 牡蛎小迭

Thank you!

In the artist messages uses the first part of his nickname (mesol, месоль). But there is another artist (mesol_zoushidie), so adding a romanization seems like a better option.

It’s really a direct romanization. Just adding a qualifier is ok.

Alright. I just thought I'd ask to see if there were any other names I could use before resorting to qualifying. I'll go ahead and use his Lofter site name, "printemps-noir" as a qualifier then. Thank you!

One汪药丸

If I understand correctly (from the many designations of the artist’s nickname/name), the first part of the nickname needs to be removed.
汪药丸 = wang yaowan
It is probably possible to define Chinese names yourself. Example sites: https://chinese.gratis/tools/zhuyin/ https://namsor.app/features/english-chinese-translation/

=老王或者汪汪。祝你永远快乐永远自由!

This is the description on Weibo. It would be good if someone checks that the artist's page is filled out correctly. As far as I understand, two additional names are mentioned.
