mass update koiiro_soramoyou gotou_nao -> koiiro_soramoyou lucie

Reason: Related to BUR #2214 I've been retagging artist manually, but some posts associated to this copyright are tagged with loli and I can't touch the tags.

EDIT: The bulk update request #2227 (forum #162017) has been approved by @evazion.

Something else I've noticed: both Lucie and Gotou Nao have been published in Dengeki Moeou at different times, under those names. See post #513430 (2003-12) and post #1106380 (2011-02). That makes it much less likely they are the same person.

However, I think I may have discovered why their styles are so similar. Gotou Nao's defunct home page was located at st.sakura.ne.jp/~galaxy/, and his circle appears to have been named Galaxy's Child. post #414878 has the english text "Galaxy's Child Home Page". Even though the source no longer exists, the source field retains the original file path and name: st.sakura.ne.jp/~galaxy/lu046b.jpg

While retagging, I came upon post #792854. After some research, I determined the artist was neither gotou nao nor lucie, but instead a third artist (Moo (umineko)), who also has a similar style to the other two. post #270178 also has Galaxy's Child text, and its source is st.sakura.ne.jp/~galaxy/muumuu003a.jpg

Lucie and Moo must have been junior members of Gotou Nao's circle.

It would be useful to explain this in the artist wiki(s).

Gotou Nao never mentioned anything about other artists: [Wayback Machine; Sep, 2008]
I think they have no relation to each other.

gotou_nao aside, how possible is it that lucie and dixsept are the same artist?
They publish under the same (romanized) name, and they already share the tag on e-h, for whatever that's worth.
Note the similar account names: lucie_pxv, lucie_twi, lucie_ds
I can't really see it in the art style though.
