sampsyo: guessing from your name I assumed you're in mine (IST, +5.5)
samj1912, FWIW, it would be nice if settings weren't set MeB specific by default, so that there's a chance it could be pushed upstream. :)

alastairp, I was just looking at https://musicbrainz.org/statistics/timeline/main#… and there's an interesting jump around Sept. 20-24th 2014, "just" before the AB launch. Were you guys adding a lot of recordings into MB at that time?

suggest an edit as an anonymous editor, have all them reviewed by a human. if accepted that anon user would be granted an account, maybe?
2016-12-17 35227, 2016

or give a quiz about music that is easily searchable via MB. provide a search prompt. then let the user enter the answer. if correct, get an account.
