python-musicbrainz-ngs's submit_isrcs function doesn't return anything worthwhile, like an edit number, and i can't add an edit note with that functino either

annoyingly :(

nikki has given up on entering edit notes for isrc edits

I was going back and doing them all manually, but that's way too much work

CatCat, reosarevok: i really do not like it to have many links to a closed site like spotify/facenook. it really sounds useless on MB for me :/ http://musicbrainz.org/edit/17435011

Ignore them?

That's what I do with all the stuff I can't open (+ myspace, which I just *won't* open if I can help it)

ignore them ok but should not we just unallow closed links? what's the point with closed links? myspace are open links

It's not closed if you can just register and access them

(admittedly, Spotify is on the fence since there's a limit for free listening IIRC - but that's still useful for people who use it and doesn't hurt those who don't)

it is closed to non facebook users

I think our main guiding principle is utility, and unfortunately lots of people still use facebook

i call it close when you cannot access without creating accounts

and most official youtube channels are closed to germany, let's remove all of those :P

in general I agree that we shouldn't be supporting terrible walled-garden bullshit, but I do think we should link things that are useful

Accounts are free - it's not like you need to give them any real info or anything
2012-04-28 11914, 2012
nikki
oh, and let's not link to any shops that require credit cards, those are closed to everyone without one :P

dang, my script made it through 248 releases (and added about 20 releases worth of ISRCs) before it crashed on something stupid
2012-04-28 11908, 2012
reosarevok
You say it as if it was bad
2012-04-28 11914, 2012
reosarevok
20 releases is pretty OK :p

That's probably what we get in one day from all other sources or something
2012-04-28 11947, 2012
ianweller
nah, it's good

i just wonder how it made it through that many things before crashing because a release didn't have timestamps in musicbrainz
