        what is the best criteria or rules to merge identical recordings ? please see this link it has multiple recordings : https://musicbrainz.org/search?query=+Bolo+Bolo+K…
      • 2014-11-01 30527, 2014

      • hawke
        Well, a basic starter is that they should be the same length
      • 2014-11-01 30543, 2014

      • HibiscusKazeneko
        Be sure to check the AcoustIDs

        wardhan: is that actually a 2-disc release?
      • 2014-11-01 30525, 2014

      • HibiscusKazeneko
        No, it isn't.
      • 2014-11-01 30540, 2014

      • wardhan
        hawke: no. when i selected merge it has shown error that artists are different.

        I highly doubt CDs were commercially available in 1982.

        wardhan: The reason the track artists were different is because of https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Style/Specific_types…

      • 2014-11-01 30558, 2014

      • wardhan
        HibiscusKazeneko: so should i cancel the edit ? and merge both recordings individually ?
      • 2014-11-01 30517, 2014

      • HibiscusKazeneko
        Yes. Please merge the recordings. The releases will have to say separate.
      • 2014-11-01 30540, 2014

      • HibiscusKazeneko
        (I suspect the version from 1982 is either an LP or cassette)
      • 2014-11-01 30514, 2014

      • wardhan
        HibiscusKazeneko: ok. i will right away merge the recodings one by one.

      • wardhan
        HibiscusKazeneko: i did first try with "Merge mediums and recordings"but it has thrown up error both have different artists.
      • 2014-11-01 30506, 2014

      • HibiscusKazeneko
        Please, do not attempt to merge the releases. They appear too different to be the same.

        they seem to be the same artist, same song, same time so go ahead and merge. just be a little careful if they are different ie a live performance vs studio recording etc

        In Japanese CD, a tilde is used by neither a subtitle nor paraphrasing. Mostly, it is not TILDE but WAVE DASH. A long time ago, TILDE was used instead of WAVE DASH. Therefore, in the web page, it may be a tilde.

        The only non-reversible edits are the ones you won't be allowed to auto-edit anyway, so

        Reverting in this case can't be an auto-edit

        I can auto-edit add relationships, can't remove them as an auto-edit

        In that case, a vote on the removal is basically equivalent to a vote on the add

        Only difference is the rel is there for up to 7 days, which doesn't sound tragic

        It's weird though to enter an edit I don't want in the first place :p

      • reosarevok
        a bit, admittedly, but

      • _5moufl
        I don't want the remove edit to pass
      • 2014-11-01 30518, 2014

      • reosarevok
        Well I can no-vote it for you :p

      • reosarevok
        Unless I think it should stay, that is :D
