        I can't tell if my problems are git or git-svn.

        • 2009-02-14 04507, 2009

      • navap prefers http://xabbu.net/mb/profile.htm over http://musicbrainz.homeip.net:3000/user/profile/rob, but there might be some bias in that comparison :p

        • 2009-02-14 04535, 2009

      • Muz
        Nah I agree

        psudonatta!

        • 2009-02-14 04521, 2009

      • navap
        I think the order really needs to be changed, why is name the third item?

        • 2009-02-14 04526, 2009

      • CatCat also agrees, btw

        • 2009-02-14 04548, 2009

        The HTML tags are appearing in the bio.

        hi, anyone knows how to mark a album as a compilation in picard?

        • 2009-02-14 04536, 2009

      • kurros
        is the site wrong?

        • 2009-02-14 04502, 2009

      • kurros
        there are add/edit buttons in properties that you can set albumartist or compliation = 1

        • 2009-02-14 04517, 2009

      • kurros
        er in Details

        • 2009-02-14 04500, 2009

      • jerndoe_
        kurros: yeah i know, but this album has no matches in the musicbrainz db, so I just need to save it without looking it up...

        • 2009-02-14 04517, 2009

      • Muz
        jerndoe_: add it to the MB db then!

        • 2009-02-14 04517, 2009

      • jerndoe_
        arhh i'll try it

        • 2009-02-14 04527, 2009

      • brianfreud
        ruaok: part of your git problems are prob because you've got the musicnews pm files in your master, even though they're still only in a checkout

        • 2009-02-14 04512, 2009

      • brianfreud
        I'd probably not wrap the bio text: http://brianfreud.info:3001/user/profile/brianfre…

        • 2009-02-14 04532, 2009

      • brianfreud
        and add some whitespace above "General Information"

        • 2009-02-14 04518, 2009

      • navap
        Whitespace..yer, but you don't want it to wrap aound the image?

        • 2009-02-14 04523, 2009

      • navap
        yes*

        • 2009-02-14 04533, 2009

      • brianfreud
        also a bit of funkiness in the "normal" right side columns now - everything on the right is 2px or so too high

        • 2009-02-14 04540, 2009

      • jerndoe_
        Muz: then I'll have to wait until it accepted, besides its not an official release...

        • 2009-02-14 04549, 2009

      • navap
        I alwas found it odd how the content on the profile page was very rigid ant in the middle.

        • 2009-02-14 04520, 2009

      • jerndoe_
        kurros: the compilation tag is already 1 on all tracks (album title is the same on all tracks)

        • 2009-02-14 04551, 2009

      • kurros
        albumartist?

        • 2009-02-14 04553, 2009

      • navap
        Correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea of a "Compilation tag" is an itunes one isnt it?

        • 2009-02-14 04536, 2009

      • navap
        As in, not something that Picard (/most other softwares?) use..

        • 2009-02-14 04546, 2009

      • jerndoe_
        kurros: is different for each tracks

        • 2009-02-14 04549, 2009

      • kurros
        yeah i think picard just writes it for convenience. most players should go by album artist. though there may be other things beside iTunes/iPods

        • 2009-02-14 04537, 2009

      • jerndoe_
        kurros: under "cluster", the folder where the files are listed, lists artist as Various Artists

        • 2009-02-14 04506, 2009

      • kurros
        jerndoe_: you really should add it to the musicbrainz db, but select all the tracks and pick details, set albumartist to Various Artists

        • 2009-02-14 04505, 2009

      • kurros
        there is a plugin you can download to just right click on the cluster and Add Release

        • 2009-02-14 04533, 2009

      • kurros
        if you already have the track names and such filled out properly

        • 2009-02-14 04540, 2009

      • brianfreud would actually love it if user bios used Text::Wiki

        • 2009-02-14 04542, 2009

      • kurros
        makes it a little easier

        • 2009-02-14 04530, 2009

      • navap
        I was actually thinking of that, It would be easy to include 'User:navap/bio' and use that as a short bio on the profile page.

        • 2009-02-14 04504, 2009

      • navap
        I aiso thought it would be nice to have a link to lastfm maybe?

        muiscnews.pm wasn't my problem, but it doesn't belong there fore sure.

      • jerndoe_
        kurrus: I'm running ubuntu/linux, where should I put the python script? I don't have the suggested folder and unsure what the applications folder is

        • 2009-02-14 04553, 2009

      • ruaok
        brianfreud: where do you see the musicnews.pm file in my master branch?

        • 2009-02-14 04556, 2009

      • kurros
        ~/.config/MusicBrainz/Picard/plugins/

        • 2009-02-14 04504, 2009

      • brianfreud
        not sure, but my checkout of acid2's master, turned into a checkout to see your branch, was complaining about it not being present when trying to restart the server on a checkout of your branch

        • 2009-02-14 04509, 2009

      • kurros
        may have to make the last two folders

        • 2009-02-14 04500, 2009

      • brianfreud
        had to pull not just your master, but also your musicnews branch, before it would start

        • 2009-02-14 04502, 2009

      • jerndoe_
        kurros: yeah was unsure if they should already be there

        • 2009-02-14 04525, 2009

      • ruaok
        thats odd

        • 2009-02-14 04525, 2009

      • brianfreud
        *shrug* well, it's up and running on your checkout now :)

      • brianfreud
        any thoughts on adding text:wikiformat support to bios?

        • 2009-02-14 04544, 2009

      • Muz
        I wouldn't.

        • 2009-02-14 04545, 2009

      • ruaok

        • 2009-02-14 04551, 2009

        • 2009-02-14 04558, 2009

      • navap
        Is this what you would want to show up as youyp "bio" oh youp mb profile? http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/BrianFreud

        • 2009-02-14 04550, 2009

        Its a little lengthy :p

        • 2009-02-14 04504, 2009

        no. I would rather have a link from my profile page to my mediawiki page

      • navap
        Yes, but looking at, http://brianfreud.info:3001/user/profile/brianfre…, I can see that youy have taken the time to not only link to your wiki page, but to also create a concise bio.

        • 2009-02-14 04555, 2009

      • brianfreud
        yes - the one's a bio, the other's a userpage, in my mind

        • 2009-02-14 04541, 2009

      • navap
        Exactly, hence using User:BrianFreud/bio instead of User:BrianFreud 

        • 2009-02-14 04559, 2009

      • navap
        But, it allows the data to be in the same place - on the wiki.

      • ruaok

        • 2009-02-14 04538, 2009

      • ruaok
        for the other changes, why not pull a git copy yourself and submit patches to acid2 ?

        • 2009-02-14 04501, 2009

      • navap
        Use brianfreud's page, its a little longer, can you add a little margin-top to the H3s?

      • ruaok
