The proper action is to propose that some of these aliases be deleted, and the links redirected to the parent artist. See Revoc's post above for some reasons that we don't want to abandon alias pages globally, but we can do it selectively. Also, if I don't reverse the majority of the ~100 edits you committed today, the alias information will be lost from the discography entirely when those are linked. So please, let's just try to find the best solution first before you go off and do things.

Can't you post aliases in a text box a-la the variations and keep it privately edited yet visible to the public? Wasn't that how James Banana got under Kinuyo's aliases despite not having its own page? However that happened, do that for Ogeretsu, Akemi, Minakuchi, etc. Even if you can't, I made sure to include both the alias and the real name in the notes section of each album where appropriate so that nobody would get confused (basically anything that wasn't a doujin, which I believe should have original composers credited to as close to their real name as possible due to lack of credit.) I'm sorry I had to put you through all this, but I corrected some otherwise completely neglected errors in the past that existed since the original upload (i.e. the "Hideki" Kobayashi page, which I vanquished) and I thought stuff like this was another case of neglect. This is exactly why I became a member; I thought I was doing what no one else could/would do. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience I caused.
