### Re: [artist:n-thing](/tags/artist-colon-n-dash-thing) -> [artist:n_thing](/tags/artist-colon-n_thing)
Agree.

### Re: [artist:snowsky-s](/tags/artist-colon-snowsky-dash-s) -> [artist:n_thing](/tags/artist-colon-n_thing)
Disagree. But the answer is non-trivial.

Here's the problem. Your VK link is to qbSky.arts who claims to be https://www.deviantart.com/queenbloodysky (although looking at their galleries between the two sites I'm not sure that is true).

On this site, that DA personfile is [artist:n_thing](/tags/artist-colon-n_thing).

But https://www.deviantart.com/queenbloodysky (AKA `artist:n_thing`) doesn't look anything like https://www.deviantart.com/snowsky-s (AKA `artist:snowsky-s`) to me.

So I don't see any indication they [artist:snowsky-s](/tags/artist-colon-snowsky-dash-s) is [artist:n_thing](/tags/artist-colon-n_thing).

I can't explain what is on VK.com with just the cursory look it permitted (I don't have a membership there), but it looks dissimilar to the gallery they claim as their own on DA. And even though that qbSky.arts person on VK seems to be claiming they drew the images the DA galleries are very dissimilar.

One has been on DA for 17 years and is a woman. The other has been on DA for 11 years and is a man. They both have different birth dates. They both have very different "likes" in their About Me on DA.

Outside of the qbSky.arts page on VK, I don't see any indication that they are the same person.

Could you instead please use references from DA? I'm getting slightly suspicious of the veracity of that VK link.
