        function1: at least 24 hours.

      • kepstin-work
        (the cleanup script waits until at least 24 hours after the last edit affecting the artist has closed before deleting the artist)
      • 2013-01-02 00219, 2013

      • function1

        reosarevok: Certainly seems like a small ensemble.

        (I mean, I assume you found the artist somewhere :) )
      • 2013-01-02 00255, 2013

      • function1
        yeah i have to add 50+ artists for this box set
      • 2013-01-02 00212, 2013

      • function1
        maybe i want add the release later
      • 2013-01-02 00213, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        you can add artists in the release editor as you add the disks.

      • 2013-01-02 00206, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        well, you can do that later.
      • 2013-01-02 00234, 2013

      • Freso
        Sure, but if you do it when you add them, you don't forget or otherwise miss any. :)
      • 2013-01-02 00246, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        true :)
      • 2013-01-02 00255, 2013

      • kepstin-work usually adds artists before using them.
      • 2013-01-02 00210, 2013

      • function1
        i was advised to enter artists first. also, what Freso said. once i had to re-enter everything 3 times because of server errors. long release, ended up adding mediums as separate edits

      • kepstin-work
        i.e. I have the release editor open in one tab, and add artists in another tab, then paste the mbids into the release editor :)
      • 2013-01-02 00252, 2013

      • reosarevok
        Yep, that's how I do it too
      • 2013-01-02 00249, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        that mbid pasting feature graduating from being a userscript to being in the server proper was nice :)
      • 2013-01-02 00258, 2013

      • hawke_1
        reosarevok: That brings us back to the question of: when it’s an ensemble taken from some larger group, is that a new artist or is it still the larger group (I mean, we probably wouldn’t make a separate artist if the second violinist was off sick that day for some recording, even if we knew). The other place I saw this is stuff like “The ladies of the ambrosian chorus”
      • 2013-01-02 00215, 2013

      • reosarevok
        Well, it depends I guess
      • 2013-01-02 00227, 2013

      • reosarevok
        Most cases I've seen that, it is a proper subgroup they use more than once
      • 2013-01-02 00245, 2013

      • reosarevok
        But yeah, I wouldn't create a new artist for stuff like "string section" or "women of the choir"
      • 2013-01-02 00206, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        we need a new artist-artist ar for 'is a sub/super-group of" then :)
      • 2013-01-02 00220, 2013

      • kepstin-work could see other cases where this would be useful as well
      • 2013-01-02 00225, 2013

      • 2013-01-02 00239, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        yes, those other cases :)
      • 2013-01-02 00258, 2013

      • reosarevok
        But those are actual *groups*
      • 2013-01-02 00212, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        AKB48 Team A is a subgroup of AKB48
      • 2013-01-02 00220, 2013

      • reosarevok
        (same as, for example, "Die 12 Cellisten der Berliner Philharmoniker")
      • 2013-01-02 00252, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        they're up to, what, 4 teams plus the training members in AKB48 now?
      • 2013-01-02 00206, 2013

      • reosarevok
        (which are an established entity that performs as itself, as opposed to "the women sections of our choir since this is a work for women choir")
      • 2013-01-02 00243, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        ah, no , just 3 teams :)
      • 2013-01-02 00210, 2013

        hm
      • 2013-01-02 00215, 2013

      • nikki
        but there's team a, k, b and 4
      • 2013-01-02 00240, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        they seem to have dropped team 4 now
      • 2013-01-02 00259, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        it's not listed on their site, at least.
      • 2013-01-02 00259, 2013

      • nikki
        but still, the artist exists in mb :P
      • 2013-01-02 00210, 2013

      • kepstin-work
        well, I guess it should be marked as ended :)
      • 2013-01-02 00248, 2013

      • 2013-01-02 00200, 2013

      • Freso
        Replacing small with big, large, orig, original, thumb, and simply removing it doesn't give a large image. Neither Google Images nor TinEye yield anything either.

        Hm. I just added a new Work for the Aerosmith+Run-DMC version of Walk This Way, but that one really isn't much changed from the Aerosmith version and certainly not enough to warrant a new version by normal standards.

        However, it seems like all subsequent covers are of the Aerosmith+Run-DMC version rather than the Aerosmith-only version, and we don't really have a way to indicate that apart from through Work relationships, do we?

      • 2013-01-02 00218, 2013

        Freso: instrumentering → Instrumentation, as in “arranged instrumentation”?

      • hawke_1
        what’s “spår”?

        hawke_1: I don't know what the "instrumentation" relationship means, but I'm guessing it's that.

        hawke_1: Context? I'm guessing "track".

        in track lists with submovements (e.g. sections of the Gloria in a mass), with the style IIa, IIb etc, does one skip IIi?
