Well.. I have a box sets that have titled "box set title" - "artist name" and "box set title" - "artist name 2" should I move that 2 to box set title when adding release?

if I understand you correctly the different discs have different artist subtitles?
2009-12-01 33542, 2009

I wouldn't say subtitle, there's litterally number 2 added to artist name on other set, like indicated that this is second compilation for this artist.
I wish there was a way to find the edit that removed a release; release 6de5543b-445c-4bcd-bf60-888b5c7b86e3 took forever to enter, simply because of the huge length of the titles, and the large number of tracks. Yet though it had plenty to document it's existence in the add edit ( http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=10793717 and related), it's simply gone now that I tried to re-tag against it. :(

wouldn't you be able to hack up a query if you have db access?
2009-12-01 33501, 2009
brianfreud_
possibly, though my dump is prob too old to contain it.
2009-12-01 33531, 2009
brianfreud_
It'd be nice, though, if the "This release has been removed" and "This release group has been removed" texts also contained a link to the removing edit.

true

not to mention if you were able to subscribe to v/a releases so we could avoid this in the first place :p
2009-12-01 33503, 2009
brianfreud_ hopes his dump is old enough to still contain the release, to re-copy it in from...

brianfreud_ found the remove edit... Why am I not surprised to see it passed on a 0:0 expiration?
2009-12-01 33550, 2009
brianfreud_
just my opinion, but I think 0:0 destructive edits of any type should fail, not pass.

I agree
2009-12-01 33530, 2009

the amount of destructive edits is low enough to warrant it
2009-12-01 33520, 2009
brianfreud_
Even were the # higher (or maybe esp if it were higher?), I think it'd be a smart change.
2009-12-01 33535, 2009

It doesn't make sense to allow anyone to (potentially) remove anything

you can't use anything other than musicbrainz
2009-12-01 33514, 2009
Wizzcat
but if there's something you can't find you can always add the release yourself

be careful with importing from freedb though, their data is notoriously bad

brianfreud_: how come you want to do SPA merges in two batches?
2009-12-01 33537, 2009

because some the AC isn't needed, the others, it'd retain the AC

ie, to keep, say, the perhaps useful "Disney" in there somewhere, even if it's now actually in [unknown]. But no real need for that with "Orchestra" or "Ethnic Music Compilations".
2009-12-01 33518, 2009

oh ok, but is the merge even visible on a release level?
