Lotheric: I know Warner Music Finland and HMC relation, but I do not really know where WEA is in hierarchy.

WEA is up top
2013-09-27 27016, 2013
Lotheric
By late 1972, US anti-trust laws had changed and the company was renamed WEA Corp. (from the first letter of each of the three main record companies; Warner Bros, Elektra, and Atlantic).

Lotheric: You refer WEA International Inc. (which is umbrella of all Warner Music Group things outside of US... And just copyright holder and distributor)
And what nikki recommend, do not make edits as auto-edits... But that is not solve anything. As far I can know every Finnish editor has about same know-how about labels as I have (so very poor)...

WEA has 2 subscibers (now 3)...

and I'm pretty sure that Ataki is only editor who reviews about all my edits

(non autoedits)

Are the forums broken?

Lotheric: I've read that thread about three times. (and now it has some edits that I've commented)

1. why would it have a problem inserting a 19-character string into a 20-character field…
2013-09-27 27001, 2013
Leftmost
UTF-8.
2013-09-27 27013, 2013
hawke_1
2. why is it even trying to insert what may be a longer string due to UTF-8 into a 20-character field?
2013-09-27 27022, 2013
hawke_1
Does that mean you can’t use any word longer than 20 characters?
2013-09-27 27025, 2013
hawke_1
if so, that’s retarded.

I wish it would be easier but major labels are a pain. I usually edit indie stuff so I rarely have to deal with those :/
2013-09-27 27020, 2013

I guess the style list could come up with some updated guideline for this
Freso: Discogs uses "Universal Music Group" when there is that logo, and "Universal" when there is that logo...
2013-09-27 27010, 2013

Freso: I just want know what is our way to do things...
2013-09-27 27012, 2013
Jozo
I do not know anything about Universal's labels neither it's corporate hierarcies.
2013-09-27 27059, 2013
Jozo
I just can say that about all releases on Universal Music Finland is wrong place.. (most of them should co to polydor or some other... but I do not know what do all digital releases what I've added)

Lotheric: And if I add about 100 digital releases on some day... It would be desirable that I select correct label at least of half :)
2013-09-27 27001, 2013
Jozo
And what I have learned correct label is not said anywhere on stores... (excluding meteli.net, which is good for finnish release labels)
2013-09-27 27048, 2013
Jozo
itunes, amazon, (7digital has some correct labels), download.mtv3.fi (local Finnish store) has only copyright info and sometimes distributor
2013-09-27 27017, 2013
Jozo
so you have make decicion when copyright holder is actual label or is some of distributor acting as label role.... (best solution would be just leave label blank.... but I do not want to)
2013-09-27 27028, 2013
Jozo
Either I add lot of releases with labels sometimes wrong or I do not add any Digital releases at all...
2013-09-27 27055, 2013
Jozo
Say me which one you want :)
2013-09-27 27037, 2013
reosarevok
I do the first one... if there's no decent way of knowing the label, there isn't
2013-09-27 27053, 2013

I have been lazy on this week. Only 91 release add event after 2013-09-20
Ideally, the IA would have some kind of service like "upload your FLACs and we'll archive them and give you access to them later" that lets you keep access to FLAC while storing V0...
2013-09-27 27028, 2013
reosarevok
Jozo: yeah, it would need to be newly written. We'll see

I mean, I'm willing to edit my own adds by hand (since most are live anyway and I'll need to add recording locations to them :) )
