well yeah, apart from we have different definitions for "use", MusicBrainz doesn't do anything special at that "server" at all

anyone remember the proper url parameters to pre-load artist gender?

it's whatever the field name is
2014-11-02 30611, 2014
nikki
so probably something like edit-artist.gender

(might have _id at the end, I can't be bothered to go check :P)

how feasible would it be to have a recording<->medium relation?
2014-11-02 30651, 2014
nikki
it would involve quite a bit of work since it would be a schema change
2014-11-02 30616, 2014
JesseW
niki -- thanks!
2014-11-02 30627, 2014
nikki
what do you want a recording-medium relationship for anyway?
2014-11-02 30646, 2014
ariscop
nikki, tracklists for dj mixes
2014-11-02 30644, 2014
nikki
I'm not sure medium relationships are the best option there anyway, since there are can be multiple on a single medium
2014-11-02 30607, 2014
nikki
-are
2014-11-02 30609, 2014
nikki
the way I'd probably do it (also quite a bit of work :/) would be to make it possible to link multiple recordings in a single relationship
2014-11-02 30657, 2014
ariscop
that's more or less what a medium is though
2014-11-02 30627, 2014
JesseW
the field name is id-edit-artist.gender_id -- but it doesn't seem to work. Does it need to be a POSTed form?
2014-11-02 30643, 2014
nikki
that's the id, not the name
2014-11-02 30607, 2014
JesseW
ah, good point
2014-11-02 30621, 2014
JesseW
the name doesn't have the initial id- on it
2014-11-02 30627, 2014
JesseW
let me try that one
2014-11-02 30629, 2014
nikki
there's quite a few things where being able to link more than two things would be useful though, whereas dj-mixes are the only thing people ever seem to mention for mediums (and as I said, it's not even the best solution)
2014-11-02 30630, 2014
nikki
yeah
2014-11-02 30652, 2014
ariscop
actually yeah, that might be better
2014-11-02 30657, 2014
ariscop
https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Podcast proposes about the same, but it means duplicating track; also needs it's own kind of relation (recording, recording, timestamp)
2014-11-02 30622, 2014
ariscop
well, the relation would be the duplication of track/medium
presumably the unicode stuff, since python is stupid

ianmcorvidae: presumably. :-)

ianmcorvidae: I just suspect it's not something I can fix as a mere user of reports.mbsandbox.org
2014-11-02 30604, 2014
ianmcorvidae
yeah, probably not XD
2014-11-02 30644, 2014
ianmcorvidae
meh
2014-11-02 30621, 2014
ianmcorvidae
don't care enough about fighting with python's stupid unicode handling right now, so I'll maybe look into it later, if you could file a bug then I can try to keep track
2014-11-02 30602, 2014
JesseW
ianmcorvidae: makes sense. I'll try to remember to file a bug. :-)
