haha an issue a human could only spot!

i learned two days ago (or wa sit yesterday) that only thailand has a phonetical transaltion of the norwegian hymn name

it's hilarious to use google translate on it because the meaning is completely wtf

btw, please to be voting for this https://beta.musicbrainz.org/user/CatCat/edits/...

YESS

it makes NO sense what os ever until you listen to the pronounciation

dating, only dating

the pronunciation is fairly correct as fr as a woman with thai-accent saying it goes

the swedish translation says instead: Pharmaceutical, Wheaton El Alan Parker dejting sex.

dejting being "dating"

wil wheaton

Can we get http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Hawaii added to the areas, please?

ho shit wha er andre juledag

26th

oki

do we have a "allmusic" importer?

nvm

rate your music tho, that'd be cool

And I suppose the Republic of Hawaii is also needed to cover the 1894–1898 peroid.

*period, fuck!

Not sure how many of those we want to add.

oh god 3 busserulls

themusic is not something I've heard but the titles are hilarious

øl øl of mere øl!

og*

KRSCuan: I’m not sure either policywise, but I’d like to add Hawaii’s anthems.

hawke_1: we probably can

But not yet

Add the anthems, and tag them to revisit them :)

…not yet?

hawke_1: well, technically we can now, I mean

But let's try to get the current world done first, I'd say

reosarevok: ca n we link http://www.rockipedia.no/ releases to things in musicbrainz?

will the icon show up+

?

no, it won't

should i make a ticker? :)

Well

it's kinda a wikipedia for norwegian music

If you want it added to the other databases whitelist, you should make a style proposal

reosarevok: Hmm, seems kind of silly to wait if we have an immediate use for it. I agree that not *all* sovereign states should be added, but…

hawke_1: ok, ask nikki. If she says yes, then ye s:p

k. :-D

(she'll be back in a while)

aw man style? why the hell do I have to do battle with those argumentative nosejobs to add a thing to the link database??

:(

CatTest: Usually database whitelist stuff is very straightforward

Because it's a closed whitelist. You could probably argue about it being a discography link, but those don't get sidebar icons

:/

I don't even know how to do it

i mean I am not subscribed to style

that doesn't really help hawke_1 :/ that's a lot stuff to do

CatTest: You just need to add a STYLE ticket in jira, and then send an RFC as it describes on that page

what do I write in the rfc?

and can i just send an email to the list? what is the mail adress for the style list

Something about what the page is, and examples of its pages

(so, one artist page, one release page, or whatever levels it has that map to MB)

basically say "I want to add http://www.rockipedia.no/ to the database whitelist. [Explain why rockipedia should be added.] Jira Ticket is here. This RFC expires on [date one week from now].”

heh they got a "places" thing too http://www.rockipedia.no/steder/oslo-1235/

oooh api http://www.rockipedia.no/generelt/api/

Is there an AR for 'setting words to music'?

Isn't that "composer"?

not if you didn’t write the music.

At least, I wouldn’t think so.

oh, I see

I'm used to "set the poem to music" being used for "wrote music for the poem"

But in cases where that's not the case, yeah, I dunno

then waht

did he write the poem?

if not then I'd say "arranged"

idk

Could work.

Yeah, maybe arranged

Or additional composition

AHAHA http://musicbrainz.org/recording/a74a3134-7d97-...

nachtspiel = nightplay?

don't you know "eine kleine nach musik"?

oh yea uh, i didn't realise that nachtspiel would be unknown to you

I know Mozart's thing yes, but not this word :)

yea so nachtspiel is this thing, basically it's "the music that a bunch of peope lgo to after a concert to get drunk and make out at"@

as far as i understand this

the opposite of vorspiel

ah its nachspiel not nact

nacht sorry

erh i dunno if any of that helps you, it has trasaltions in swedish, dutch and polish

ahaha "afterparty"

reosarevok: you know stuff about estonian artists. What’s the “juhatusel” coming from on https://beta.musicbrainz.org/work/7d75bea7-4145... ?

…that AC looks really really weird to me.

reosarevok: lame also mean s to be uh.. wait you're doing a lame joke agai naren't yo

sigh

CatTest: lol, I mean.. it's a weird case, I guess

Well, it's a new user being told confusing things in the forum :/

indeed

boo on that

It's kinda not their fault even though their manners are a bit meh :p

yea i know

D: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-22533522#FBM...

apparently "audio purists" prefer "analogue sound"

no, that's "analogue nuts"

“This is a serious issue that needs to fixed.”

but I love cassettes

cassettes are rubbish :D

Vinyl, the purist's darling, has that sound, but it also has a hefty price tag - C$14.10 ($13.80; £9.09) per record for a set of 100, compared to C$1.29 for cassettes.

also you better not be dissing cassettes man
