2013-08-01 21313, 2013

of the server
2013-08-01 21318, 2013
nikki

2013-08-01 21319, 2013
nikki

2013-08-01 21326, 2013

2013-08-01 21351, 2013

22.0
2013-08-01 21338, 2013
nikki
hm. works for me :/
2013-08-01 21313, 2013
nikki
maybe it's a clash with another user script
2013-08-01 21311, 2013

ok so i uninstalled and reinstalled and works fine
2013-08-01 21316, 2013

sorry to have wasted your time

why there's [no label] at all? Leaving label empty signifies release has no label just as well.
2013-08-01 21354, 2013
simukis_
well it's either [no label] or unknown label

is there's somewhere reasoning beyond making [no label]?
2013-08-01 21333, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
blank entry could mean that someone just hasn't bothered to enter it yet. '[no label]' is explicit
2013-08-01 21359, 2013
nikki
having nothing there *does* mean nobody's bothered to enter it
2013-08-01 21311, 2013
nikki
same applies to the catno and barcode
2013-08-01 21325, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
yes. which is different from "I have verified that there is, in fact, no label"
2013-08-01 21341, 2013
nikki
yeah, exactly
2013-08-01 21358, 2013

I was just saying it's not just "could mean" XD

we probably should have checkboxes for that, like for barcodes.
2013-08-01 21330, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
yeah, it's annoying to have to type out '[no label]' and wait for the ajax entry :D

question: a cassette has (unlisted) spoken interludes between some of the songs. 2 Release entries are present, 1 which lists them as [spoken #x], 1 which doesn't list them. should 1 be a 'pseudo-release' of the other?
2013-08-01 21353, 2013
warp
th1rtyf0ur: a cassette tracklist should follow the tracklist on the cover (if it exists), so that one should definitely be official.
2013-08-01 21313, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
ok. so the one that lists the [spoken] tracks is pseduo- then? or should be merged?
2013-08-01 21320, 2013
warp
th1rtyf0ur: depends :)
2013-08-01 21332, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
since it's a cassette, there aren't actual tracks to distinguish separation
2013-08-01 21344, 2013
warp
th1rtyf0ur: is there a CD release to compare this tracklist too?
2013-08-01 21358, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
ok, maybe this makes it easier- there are bootleg CDs that include the cassette on it, which separate the tracsk
2013-08-01 21305, 2013
warp
th1rtyf0ur: do bootlegged/pirated copies usually have the tracks seperated?
2013-08-01 21307, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
no official ones, though
2013-08-01 21326, 2013
ianmcorvidae
I mean, it's definitely not a pseudorelease, since those are for translations and transliterations
2013-08-01 21336, 2013
ianmcorvidae
at least as far as the actual release status goes
2013-08-01 21339, 2013
warp
th1rtyf0ur: in that case turn it into a bootleg release in the database.
2013-08-01 21332, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
ha, ok. i'd just changed it *from* bootleg XD
2013-08-01 21346, 2013
th1rtyf0ur goes to cancel that part of the edit

:D

i assume it's preferable to merge recordings than to change the recording at the release level, thus orphaning one & letting it get auto-deleted?

merging keeps the mbids, so anyone with the old mbid will be able to find the new one
2013-08-01 21325, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
k, that's what i thought
2013-08-01 21344, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
i'm gonna need to write a new userscript then, so I can see what releases each recording appears on
2013-08-01 21301, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
unless there's already one that does that :)
2013-08-01 21307, 2013
nikki
where?
2013-08-01 21320, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
didn't see anything that looked like it did, though
2013-08-01 21331, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
on work/recording pages
2013-08-01 21350, 2013
nikki
the recording page already shows you though...
2013-08-01 21310, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
those list all the other recordings of a work, but unless they all have detailed disambiguation notes, you don't know what releases they appear on w/o clicking on each one
2013-08-01 21344, 2013
nikki
oh, you mean the list of an artist's recordings, not the recordings page itself
2013-08-01 21333, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
either artist/MBID/recordings or recording/MBID
2013-08-01 21343, 2013
nikki
recording/mbid does list the releases
2013-08-01 21303, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
recording/MBID lists the releases for *that* recording, but not for all the other recordings of the same work
2013-08-01 21328, 2013
nikki
oh
2013-08-01 21334, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
it justs lists them as '[live ][cover ]recordings: work (disambig.)'
2013-08-01 21337, 2013
nikki
then no, I know of nothing :P
2013-08-01 21316, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
for most things I'll be able to tell by what releases it's on whether it's the same recording or not
2013-08-01 21351, 2013
th1rtyf0ur
but it'll probably take a loot of loading, since it'll have to query each recording entry for releases
2013-08-01 21339, 2013
th1rtyf0ur wonders which works have the most recordings in MB... XD
