looks like there is nothing in the like of an UI to configure userscripts

speaking of motörhead (and the heavy metal umlaut)...

... https://musicbrainz.org/artist/0a3386b0-9634-40... is often written "lääz" but the album covers show, if anything, lååz. weird case of people using umlauts because they can't type the right character?

This is the hill I want to die on.

(which will also be the title of my third solo album)

CallerNo6: seems pretty questionable

what, me wrong?

inconceivable.

no, anyone spelling it Lääz

Michael: Laaz Rockit comes from the Clint Eastwood movie, “The Enforcer”. It is the weapon he uses to blow up the tower on Alcatraz Island at the end. It sounded really cool to us when we were 17 years old, that’s how long we have been together!

Ah. That tower is the hill I want to die on.

Anyway, the important question is, "should they be tagged with https://musicbrainz.org/tag/gratuitous%20heavy%... ?" It's gratuitous in a different sense :-)

oh, wait, I see another å in that list. cool.

poop, how do I get https://paste.ee/p/TkpDK this to also include all other entities other than "release" (also artist, release group work recording label, instrument, etc)

lööz

userscript-gurues, guide me!

huh.. who removed the ää anyway first?

CallerNo6: it says "

WE CURRENTLY HAVE 0 IMAGES IN THIS SECTION "

(on the fanart.tv you linked in the edit on lææzer rockit)

or wahtever :D

CatQuest: something like https://paste.ee/p/skW9Q

you could possibly match on whatever and not have to specify all the types

idk

Rotab: \o/

but yes, "match on whatever" would be better since then we don't need to list every thing

that is.. I don't know how to do that :(

just "*" or what?

CatQuest, thanks, fixed.

For those following along at home, the band name was de-metalicized at https://musicbrainz.org/edit/34118542 . I guess I should ping the editor and give him/her/etc a chance to vote "no".

oh, wait, no. that's just an alias. nevermind.

I saw that too :s I don't see how it's "typo"

.* is everything i think

and it will work with thae "type" variable?

if you put it in the parenthesis

doesn't seem to work

https://beta.musicbrainz.org/artist/0a3386b0-96... I see no "edit history" tab

also not on https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release/09981485-3...

what did you change re to?

re?

ah, ifi just put (*) in the first place in place of "release" it works

.. but only for release :/

.*

re = new RegExp("musicbrainz\.org\/(.*)\/([a-f0-9]{8}-[a-f0-9]{4}-[a-f0-9]{4}-[a-f0-9]{4}-[a-f0-9]{12})","i");

doesnt work

re = new RegExp("musicbrainz\.org\/(*)\/([a-f0-9]{8}-[a-f0-9]{4}-[a-f0-9]{4}-[a-f0-9]{4}-[a-f0-9]{12})","i"); does, but only for release (omitting the type things and writing)

$('ul.tabs').append('<li><a href="/(*)/' + mbid + '/edits">Edit history</a></li>'); it works for release but nothing else

ah i'ts 2 am here now i'm going to bed.. if you figure out something (or if anyone else does) you know where to paste an idea (here <3)

thank you so much

im already in bed ;D

i am in the sofa. i will try not to sleep here as i did yesterday

it should work, i think.. except that you should leave the ul.tabs row as it was

yea that didn't owkr :/

and im pretty sure just (*) shouldnt work at all

are you sure it is saving correctly? :P

¬¬

if I alter nothing but put .* inside the parantesis, I don't see "edit history" anywhere

oh

the $ fell off

:o

wait i see it

let me try

eck. it makes a link not a a tab D:

try reloading, maybe jsut oddity

oh

no, it made a link outside of tabs :/

the li fell off too

wtf did i do

urg you

now it worked!

\o/

i think oyu needto go sleep some too :P

thank you though

thanks Rotab, thotab

me too

CallerNo6: where is your fix? i can't see it on https://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/43610468 ?

anyway, i'm going to bed <3

natta rotab

anyway,I've looked at wikpedia which helpfully has images of all albums and I think ti's more singular dot than circle.. so ȧ instead of å

<-- bed

hibiscuskazeneko, what's that about?

CallerNo6: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-02-1...

drag. is that just one retailer? or is it the beginning of something bigger?

either way, https://twitter.com/rebeccawatson/status/831555...

It's all of them

The publisher is banning all international shipments

This has been my worst nightmare for well over a decade

This is not the first time a branch of Avex has pulled a stunt like this. Back in 2009 they yanked all their music off iTunes.

Whether it's the beginning of a larger crackdown remains to be seen.

If it is, I saw the writing on the wall as early as 2006.

"crackdown"? by the publisher?

Yes, and others. Possibly the entire industry.

Remember the Lik-Sang case? That was the first warning sign.

I mean, usually "crackdown" implies some kind of legal action. this sounds like a business decision?

Whether it's strictly a business decision is doubtful.

I'm willing to bet the IOC had something to do with it.

Italian Organized Crime? Almost certainly.

International Olympic Commission

Japan is fixing to host the Summer Olympics in 2020, and as a result they're under intense pressure to ratchet up their IP laws.

The Olympics don't want you to watch anime?

More like it's part of a parter régime of placing control in the hands of copyright holders.
