        nikki: how often does your site cache releases?
      • 2013-02-11 04243, 2013

      • nikki
        oh. the db on there hasn't updated since october :P
      • 2013-02-11 04251, 2013

      • nikki
        I should change where the domain points to
      • 2013-02-11 04254, 2013

      • flamingspinach
        the one I linked earlier I just entered yesterday but I'm getting the same problem on one that I entered in january
      • 2013-02-11 04259, 2013

      • flamingspinach
        oh haha
      • 2013-02-11 04259, 2013

      • jesus2099
        nikki: you could parse the live pages instead of your local db ! :)
      • 2013-02-11 04222, 2013

      • jesus2099
        nikki: or webn service

        Someone who voted on https://musicbrainz.org/artist/c340e42f-99ef-4dec… ( VxJasonxV CatCat jesus2099 ), why should they be split?
      • 2013-02-11 04202, 2013

      • Freso
        It looks like they have a bunch of recordings to their name.
      • 2013-02-11 04216, 2013

      • jesus2099
        we are split lovers, maybe
      • 2013-02-11 04217, 2013

      • Freso
        Hm.
      • 2013-02-11 04212, 2013

      • jesus2099
        Freso: I just abstained those who had 3 votes already, to make your time decision
      • 2013-02-11 04218, 2013

      • Freso
        Though I guess they're mostly the same recordings being replicated, it seems.
      • 2013-02-11 04222, 2013

        jesus2099: Cheers. :)

        hi

      • jesus2099
        maybe you can no vote wil deciding, because it can pass any time now
      • 2013-02-11 04217, 2013

      • Freso
        I'd just like some more explaining from derr84 other than "split artist". I want to know why they should be split, not that he's splitting them. I can kind of tell he's doing that. :p

      • Freso
        derr84: derr84|2: Care to explain why that artist should be split? :)
      • 2013-02-11 04221, 2013

      • derr84|2
        Freso: because they're two artist, aren't they?)
      • 2013-02-11 04204, 2013

      • Freso
        derr84|2: Sometimes there are groups which are named "Artist 1 & Artist 2", they should remain groups.
      • 2013-02-11 04224, 2013

      • Freso
        derr84|2: But I don't know the specific case, so I don't know. :)
      • 2013-02-11 04239, 2013

      • derr84|2
        Freso: I myself added such duo. They performed together 20 years. I'm not sure if is's such case...
      • 2013-02-11 04230, 2013

      • Freso
        derr84|2: Which is why I'd like to know something more about the case than just "splitting". :)
      • 2013-02-11 04254, 2013

      • Freso
        Because, I can kind of tell you're splitting the artist - but I can't see from the edit why you think they should be split.
      • 2013-02-11 04209, 2013

      • flamingspinach
        dammit

      • flamingspinach
        there should be a giant flashing warning next to "change artist credits" on the artist edit form
      • 2013-02-11 04259, 2013

      • flamingspinach
        is there some way to automatically undo artist credit merges like the one at the top of this list?
      • 2013-02-11 04207, 2013

      • nikki
        no
      • 2013-02-11 04211, 2013

      • flamingspinach
        ... actually, wtf is this edit anyway
      • 2013-02-11 04224, 2013

      • nikki
        (that's why its not an auto-edit now, because you can do a lot of damage very easily)
      • 2013-02-11 04220, 2013

      • flamingspinach
        this whole artist edit is clearly wrong, unfortunately nobody voted against it

        jesus2099: another question, for your mass merge recordings script, is it supposed to pause when I switch away from the tab?

      • 2013-02-11 04235, 2013

      • VxJasonxV
        Freso, I'm sure the split worked.
      • 2013-02-11 04246, 2013

      • VxJasonxV
        It's just pending for the one release due to the fact that the add release hasn't gone through yet
      • 2013-02-11 04257, 2013

      • VxJasonxV
        not to mention all the other pending edits
      • 2013-02-11 04252, 2013

      • derr84|2
        colab rel should be removed, I've made

      • 2013-02-11 04217, 2013

      • Freso
        derr: It wasn't when I made the edit. Anyway, I think we're good.
      • 2013-02-11 04214, 2013

        Freso: why will yours expire in 7 days but mine will in 14?)
      • 2013-02-11 04206, 2013

      • Freso
        derr: Because I'm on beta.
      • 2013-02-11 04222, 2013

      • Freso

      • 2013-02-11 04229, 2013

      • Freso
        derr: But only for new edits.
      • 2013-02-11 04205, 2013

      • Freso
        I'm sure they will mention this prominently in the release notes ( ocharles warp ).
      • 2013-02-11 04235, 2013

      • ocharles
        i hadn't planned to, but I guess I should :)

      • 2013-02-11 04231, 2013

      • ocharles
        good to see that that change doesn't even have a ticket
      • 2013-02-11 04248, 2013

      • reosarevok
        ocharles: which change, the 7 days one?
      • 2013-02-11 04250, 2013

      • ocharles
        yea
      • 2013-02-11 04250, 2013

      • reosarevok

      • 2013-02-11 04253, 2013

      • ocharles
        not that I can see
      • 2013-02-11 04200, 2013

      • reosarevok
        I added one at some point, let me see

      • 2013-02-11 04221, 2013

        We decided on not making the change to abstain votes anyway, didn't we?
      • 2013-02-11 04232, 2013

      • reosarevok
        Not for now at least, yes
      • 2013-02-11 04238, 2013

      • ocharles
        yes, though it's been changed for 4 hard coded editor ids
      • 2013-02-11 04246, 2013

      • ocharles
        something that wasn't discussed and I'm not particularly pleased about, but whatever
      • 2013-02-11 04247, 2013

      • reosarevok
        Uh, it has?
      • 2013-02-11 04248, 2013

      • ocharles
        yes
      • 2013-02-11 04202, 2013

      • ocharles
        I wouldn't be against the change if that was communicated, but never mind

        Freso: that meeting doesn't show us agreeing on 7 days though (or say why we did it)
      • 2013-02-11 04221, 2013

      • ocharles
        so that's not much good for the blog post. I can't find where we agreed to do it now

      • reosarevok
      • 2013-02-11 04241, 2013

      • reosarevok
        It was admittedly just about "considering" it though
      • 2013-02-11 04247, 2013

      • ocharles
        aha
      • 2013-02-11 04248, 2013

      • reosarevok
        (decision was in a meeting)
      • 2013-02-11 04248, 2013

      • Freso
        Yeah, that seems rather hackish.
      • 2013-02-11 04250, 2013

      • ocharles
        thanks
      • 2013-02-11 04202, 2013

      • ocharles
        Freso: it's not the hackishness, it just felt like a bit of abuse of commit rights
      • 2013-02-11 04211, 2013

      • Freso
        ocharles: That too.
      • 2013-02-11 04223, 2013

      • ocharles
        but it's in the past now, best to let it be
      • 2013-02-11 04234, 2013

      • ocharles
        I assume those editors want that behavior, too :)
      • 2013-02-11 04213, 2013

      • reosarevok
        I assume it's nikki (who does), probably ian? and me (who like it, although I wasn't expecting it :p)
      • 2013-02-11 04223, 2013

      • warp
        what is abuse of commit rights?
      • 2013-02-11 04239, 2013

      • Freso
        Special casing some editor ids without going through a bug etc., I guess?
      • 2013-02-11 04205, 2013

      • reosarevok
        Well, it was mentioned in the comments for 5666 or whatever the bug ticket is
      • 2013-02-11 04208, 2013

      • reosarevok
        (as a short-term fix)
      • 2013-02-11 04218, 2013

      • reosarevok
        I just didn't know it had also been implemented

        The fingerprints look completely different, so I imagine it should be easy to find which is the right one and unlink the other one

        I'm not completely sure how to see which one is the one you have though... if you don't know maybe luks can help

        well, if I unlink Picard won't return the mistake?

        If you unlink the one you have from the recording that has it wrongly, it won't be detected anymore, no

        (which I guess is what you mean and want :) )
      • 2013-02-11 04218, 2013

      • reosarevok
        (might be detected as another recording, if it's linked to several)
      • 2013-02-11 04212, 2013

      • derr
        i'll try

        not that I'm going to fight anything, because thank goodness for 7 days rather than 1000000 as it used to be
      • 2013-02-11 04244, 2013

      • Krystof
        but I still think that 5½ days is a better cadence
