        Leftmost: if it is correct, it is correct!
      • reosarevok doesn't know if that is though
      • reosarevok just cares about quotes and ellipsis
      • Leftmost
        There is absolutely zero graphical distinction between the two.
      • reosarevok
        That *might* be overkill
      • It would be fine if it was an autoedit, I imagine
      • reosarevok hopes typographical stuff become autoedits soon
      • nikki
        is there a ticket for not being able to add v.a. releases?
      • I'm getting 502s trying to go past the tracklist
      • v6lur
        bah, turns out one apparently can't merge an incorrect, 15-track, 1-"medium" release into the correct 16-track, 2xCD release...
      • "This requires that mediums over each release have corresponding track counts."
      • reosarevok could add a track…
      • but if one is 1x15 (or, well, even 1x16) and the other 2x8 ?
      • reosarevok
        Good question

        v6lur: artist country statistics are 90% done; awaiting a merge of some of my other code by ocharles so there's a better display than '<two-letter country code, linking to search>: <count>"
      • just FYI :)
      • v6lur
        ooh, nice!

        if I comment on an edit closed a few months ago, will someone see it?
      • nikki
        possibly the person who added it and the people who voted yes or not
      • yes or no, evn
      • meh. can't type
      • if they have valid email addresses set, they'll get an email sent to them saying a note has been added
      • fupp
        okay
      • bitmap
        people who've abstained get emails now too. or was that changed again?
      • v6lur
        yes, they do (at least i did, on one edit)
      • s/did/got/
      • nikki
        there's a ticket somewhere for it though
      • v6lur
        what, shouldn't they get them?
      • nikki
        no
      • v6lur
        i don't know about others, but when i abstain, it's because i can't make up my mind, but would like to see how the discussion turns out, not that i don't care (in that case, i wouldn't vote on it)
      • reosarevok would like a preference for that
      • reosarevok
        (yeah, I know, we don't like preferences now)
      • v6lur still likes preferences
      • reosarevok too
      • nikki
        there's a few problems with the current behaviour though, it's never sent emails before, people use it for making edits they don't know or care enough about go away from the edits to vote on lists and most importantly, you can't unvote, you can only change your vote to abstain
      • er
      • use it for *voting* on edits...
      • reosarevok
        No, use it for making edits was ok, wasn't it?
      • Anyway, that's why I said a preference
      • nikki
        oh
      • long sentence...
      • reosarevok
        Anyway, I can do nothing with edit notes and voting and whatever until I become able to vote on my subscriptions, so…
      • nikki
        yeah
      • reosarevok
        (lately my subscribed editors are just tenths of merges of recordings and stuff like that)
      • Krystof joined the channel
      • bitmap
        I always get a 502 the first time I click on my subscribed entities, and I don't even have that many. it works after I reload though.
      • nikki
        how many do you have?
      • the more you have, the less likely it is to ever work
      • bitmap
        12 pages times however many per page
      • nikki
        50
      • bitmap
        so, 600 :)
      • nikki
        yeah
      • bitmap
        -ish
      • nikki
        people like me and drsaunde have been out of luck ever since ngs arrived, there's no way on earth it can cope with ours
      • bitmap
        how many pages do you have?
      • nikki
        I have around 25k subscriptions
      • bitmap
        oh, wow.
      • nikki
        drsaunde is the only person I know with more, he had more than 40k last I checked
      • (well, no way without putting the tables back into the same database I guess ;) it worked fine before)
      • bitmap
        is that mostly from all the artists you've created and auto-subscribed to, I guess?
      • nikki
        I subscribed to all the artists with cjk characters in the name :)
      • reosarevok did not, though, and in his case it *is* from those artists
      • the form in mason let me subscribe to multiple artists with one request, so I took advantage of it + my local db
      • reosarevok
        (131 pages)
      • bitmap
        hm. you must get rather large subscription emails.
      • nikki
        it all started years back when the db was nearly all english and hardly anyone knew anything about these weird blobs on top of letters, so I started subscribing to anything with accents
      • depends, a lot of them don't get many edits
      • bitmap
        I always get excited when some obscure artist I've subscribed to finally has open edits
      • because I see the same artists every day in my usual subscription emails :P
      • reosarevok tends to get at most 3 edits per day there
      • reosarevok
        (yeah, for 6k artists)
      • Which mainly shows I build my own kingdom in MB and nobody else comes
      • :p
      • nikki
        stop editing so many mad squiggles that you claim are english then :P
      • reosarevok was thinking about Spanish rap
      • reosarevok
        The witch house stuff gets more edits, actually

        wow, 20 votes for splitting an artist - http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/MBS#selec...
      • reosarevok
        Not surprising
      • Nice, though
      • nikki
        I'm surprised 20 people found the ticket
      • (and also voted)

      • hey kepstin
      • bitmap
        the release editor response time one needs more votes
      • ianmcorvidae
        someone or the other linked it in one or the other channel the other day
      • the splitting an artist one
      • that may be why so many votes
      • nikki
        it's still a lot

        2 day later, I ask how to do if tracklist may be found only online stores. So now I found cover and it's not the same. First of all how I must enter if cover like this http://www.cdmail.fr/jaquettes/cd/verso/3298498.... "Introduction" must be in song title or not? or simple all artist credid to this track must be like (feat. ArtistA & ArtistB & ArtistN)?
      • or may be if cover like this, no need any artist? Because this cd is antology of 10 years Groundation music. And in another albums this songs doesn't have any (feat.) but they also doesn't have any introduction and the begin of the song (10 -15 words about how bad babylon world :-)
      • some tracks have diffrent artist for Introduction and featuring :-(

        What's the password for user postgres in NGS?
      • I want to install and configure phppgadmin to view the database
      • ruaok
        in the NGS vm?
      • no password.
      • shultz
        yes
      • strange
      • ruaok
        double check.
      • less lib/DBDefs.pm
      • shultz
        command "su postgres -c psql" requires a password
      • ruaok
        look for the DB definition section.
      • I think the password is blank. if not, then it will be there.
      • shultz
        in DBDefs.pm password is blank, but in shell i see autenthification failure
      • ruaok
        cd admin
      • ./psql READWRITE
      • shultz
        no such database "readwrite"
      • ruaok
        type the command exactly like I typed it from the admin dir.
      • shultz
        sorry)))
      • and beyond?
      • ruaok

      • shultz
        yes
      • ruaok
        ok, so all is well then.
      • user musicbrainz, no password are the credentials you're looking for.
      • actually user musicbrainz_user
      • psql -U musicbrainz_user musicbrainz_db
      • should also get you the shell
