Better Danbooru Artist Search

Makes the Danbooru artist search more convenient by automatically fixing URLs and navigating to the artist's wiki page if it's unquestionable that the search query links to said artist.

Recommended to be used in conjunction with the Danbooru artist search engine in the Chrome omnibox or the like.

Note: to add the search engine to the omnibox, copy the link above (or this one), right-click the omnibox, click Edit search engines..., scroll to the bottom of the prompt, enter a name for it, enter a trigger, paste the link into the rightmost box and click Finished.

Fixes:

  • Missing http:// protocol thanks to browsers being "user-friendly"
  • Incomprehension of the new Pixiv URL form (which has since been replaced with the ugly old form)
  • Incomprehension of unposted artwork URLs from Tumblr and Twitter, since they aren't saved in the database yet
  • Incomprehension of mobile Twitter pages, for those who like disabling Javascript or can somehow get userscripts running on a mobile browser, since Danbooru only stores the desktop URLs
