reosarevok: "ref_count is how many times it is used".....what is used?
2019-06-02 15321, 2019
reosarevok
The credit
2019-06-02 15334, 2019
reosarevok
I think that's what it is, anyway :D So if it's used in 5 releases/recordings it'll be 5, etc
2019-06-02 15350, 2019
reosarevok
Cyna: the form is not part of the entity, you need to pass the form
2019-06-02 15337, 2019
reosarevok
But the way that form works there is different to what I'm used to, so you'll need yvanzo or bitmap to tell you how exactly to do it :D
2019-06-02 15339, 2019
reosarevok
sorry!

CatQuest: We've talked about it a few times, but nobody proposed it yet :p
2019-06-02 15332, 2019
reosarevok
I think it might make sense, feel free to propose
2019-06-02 15329, 2019

reosarevok: so for instance there is a recording with artists: Madonna feat. Justin Timberlake, then artist_count = 2 and if they have worked in 4 songs together then ref_count = 4?
2019-06-02 15300, 2019
reosarevok
Well, if there are four songs with the specific credit "Madonna feat. Justin Timberlake". If one was Madonna & Justin Timberlake then that'd be a different credit
2019-06-02 15304, 2019
reosarevok
But I think so, yes

and what is gid?
2019-06-02 15312, 2019
pristine__
is there a place where I can understand the tables of MB db
reosarevok: when manually adding a release, fine. but if i use an impirter script?
2019-06-02 15335, 2019
reosarevok
Either you do the same, or if you already have all the data anyway you can always go to the CD stub page later and attach the discid from there
2019-06-02 15317, 2019
Freso
pristine__: The "almost" was with a question mark. I’m not aware of a place where the `gid` column stores something other than an MBID, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t one, so I also don’t want to claim that it always‐always is the case. :)
2019-06-02 15320, 2019
Freso
Hence my comment that it’s _generally_ safe to assume, but you should of course be always vigilant. :)
2019-06-02 15303, 2019
Freso
reosarevok: I marked it as such now anyway, but I’m also of the school that redirects are Monarch and never to break old URLs if it can be avoided. 🙈
2019-06-02 15317, 2019
Freso
(The ticket. Which you probably got a notification about anyway.)

reo making some ticket and freso saying "i marked it has duplicate (and saying something like redirects are important and it's important to not break urls") but that those thingswere also unrelated

reosarevok: they should prob redirect properly, so yeah, a schema change for that at least
I'm at the airport in San Jose (Costa Rica) right now. I managed to get in before the thunderstorms arrived.

cool things off nicely, but wreaks havoc on the streets and the tiny planes.
2019-06-02 15324, 2019

i expect those to be stronger than here

we had torrential downpours for 3 days straight and I've never seen so much water coming from the heavens.

the most we ever got was steady rain for a few days

<CatQuest> '''I wish there was on the "error uploading image" a "retry" next to the "remove" button''' I think in the past it has retried if you just click the "Submit" button again.

i wished there was an option for an in-place replacement for coverart
2019-06-02 15343, 2019
rdswift
You mean one transaction that creates two edits (add and delete)?
2019-06-02 15340, 2019
SothoTalKer
how it is done on the technical side does not really matter to me. :))
2019-06-02 15335, 2019

I was just thinking thatthe delete edit would still require voting.
2019-06-02 15304, 2019
SothoTalKer
any replacement edit would still require voting, yes

I can't remember... Does adding cover art require voting? Delete does for sure.
2019-06-02 15356, 2019
SothoTalKer
i think it does
2019-06-02 15358, 2019
rdswift
You're probably right. The issue would be that the "add" edit got voted down, but the "delete" edit passed. Too bad edits can't be made conditional. Only process edit 'b' if edit 'a' is applied.
2019-06-02 15351, 2019
SothoTalKer
well, why does it have to be an add+delete edit, not a single "replacement" edit, while keeping the generated ID.
2019-06-02 15308, 2019
rdswift
No idea. I'm guessing it has something to do with how the stuff is stored and accessed on the CAA servers.
