Driving up from MD to your side, Buffalo was always that "blink and you miss it" alongside the highway

Okay, real question...
2008-04-08 09935, 2008
pbryan
If artist credit is "Artist A or Artist B", how best to show in MB?
2008-04-08 09923, 2008
BrianFreud
lol, the liner itself wasn't sure?
2008-04-08 09944, 2008
pbryan shall use it in an English sentence: "Billy Taylor or Bill Benford is credited for playing tuba in "Each Day" by Jelly-Roll Morton and His Red Hot Peppers."
2008-04-08 09905, 2008
pbryan
Nobody really knows who played bb during this session of 4 tracks.
2008-04-08 09918, 2008

The documentation (everywhere) is fuzzy on the subject.
2008-04-08 09921, 2008

I'd just put it in an annotation then
2008-04-08 09924, 2008
pbryan
No definitive answers.
2008-04-08 09932, 2008
pbryan
And not credit either artist, or credit both?
2008-04-08 09958, 2008
BrianFreud
not credit either - 50/50 either by itself is wrong, 100% both at the same time is wrong.
2008-04-08 09917, 2008
pbryan
Aaaalrighty then.
2008-04-08 09937, 2008
pbryan decides to troll again: MB needs an AR "or" relationship flag.

Does this sound like a reasonable policy to promote: Linking to a Wikipedia page should be for the language of the release.
2008-04-08 09915, 2008
BrianFreud
no
2008-04-08 09937, 2008
ruaok
sounds too restrictive
2008-04-08 09939, 2008
pbryan
Does this sound like a reasonable policy to promote: Link to any damn language-version of a Wikipedia page you can find for the release!
2008-04-08 09946, 2008
BrianFreud
yup
2008-04-08 09903, 2008
pbryan
You can find other languages already reference in the Wikipedia page itself.
2008-04-08 09920, 2008
BrianFreud
links to wikipedia, imho, are just like any other link or data. They ought to be considered solely with regards to themselves, not in connection with other data.
2008-04-08 09908, 2008
pbryan
So, L-T-A-D-L-V-o-a-W-P-Y-C-F-f-t-R is seriously the better policy.
2008-04-08 09910, 2008
ruaok
what if we say: "Prefer to link to WP pages in the language that matches the release. If not, anything is better than nothing"
2008-04-08 09925, 2008
pbryan
ruaok: I can live with that.
2008-04-08 09935, 2008
BrianFreud
works for me, though I don't see the harm in having multiple wiki links for one release
it's an extreme case of every wikipedia having an entry, yes
2008-04-08 09919, 2008
BrianFreud
but taken one by one, is any one of them incorrect data?
2008-04-08 09917, 2008
BrianFreud
if you only allow the native language, then you'd use .de - and the BBC for example, would not have an english wikilink via MB that they could use
2008-04-08 09929, 2008
pbryan
Nope.
2008-04-08 09943, 2008
pbryan
And, yup.
2008-04-08 09933, 2008
BrianFreud would suggest the BBC not being able to use MB to get Wikipedia for Mozart = bad thing :P

Can't say I've ever heard this before, but I like :)
pbryan: personally I add links for relevant languages (e.g band's native language, main country of release, plus english since it's the main mb language) but I wouldn't vote against any links with decent content
2008-04-08 09951, 2008

I would certainly have voted against http://sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfgang_Amadeus_Mo… because it's not much better than "there was a cool dude called mozart born in salzburg, austria who wrote loads of music"

Ok, now that I actually look at what you said, I agree in the sense that I don't know if adding links in multiple languages makes sense.

someone lists something as "will ship worldwide", I buy it and ask for the full total including shipping, then they say they can't ship it to me, then later enter an unpaid item dispute...
