Anyone?

PelvicSorcery (who is now offline): It might be helpful 1) to stick around for longer (you asked at 1 AM CET), and 2) to link to said edits/edit history.

reosarevok: I'll do it tonight

Hi @rotab are you there?

Sorry I had to quit yday

re: importing credits

no problem :)

So how does it work? Do I type the URL of the record and the URL of the Bandcamp where the credits are written?

@Rotab ? I have PM'd you :)

mzmz: You probably want to look into userscripts.

See https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Guides/Userscripts (esp. the Importers section)

tnx

mzmz: Generally with IRC: don't expect all people to be around all the time. :) People pop on and off—and even if they're online, they may not sit and actively watch the channel. Just hang around and someone will get around to answering you eventually.

gotcha:)

but credits like who wrote the track and who played what instruments is something you have to add manually

on the flip side, PelvicSorcery is an awesome name

:O

how do you capitalize "Coup de Grâce" in english ? Use french or english capitalization ? (it's an english word borrowed from french... https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/coup_de_grâce#En...

If the whole tracklist is in english, i'd say stick to english capitalization. So "Coup de Grâce" for me (but "Coup de grâce" in french)

reosarevok: ^^ ?

If it's really used in English then you could use English caps

I went with "Coup de Grâce"

thanks

it seems to be the most fitting way

I've never seen it spelled with a â in english

PelvicSorcery: hi

Hello, CatQuest

[09:44] <Freso> PelvicSorcery (who is now offline): It might be helpful 1) to stick around for longer (you asked at 1 AM CET), and 2) to link to said edits/edit history.

also your name is awesome :D

👍

CatQuest: It's from Guardians of the Galaxy

Freso: Long time no see. Hope you've been well.

no idea what that is :D

something about en ent claled grot or something

PelvicSorcery: >_> I'm sorry, your name is not familiar to me. :(

Normally I've stuck around for a few hours but it varies. :)

Freso: I haven't done much with MB lately. I used to be active a few years ago.

Ah.

Freso: How would the edit history show me cover art upload errors?

Anyway, "from Guardians of the Galaxy" still isn't really helpful to see what you're having issues with.

Oh. I don't think there's any way to look at those logs.

CatQuest: It's a movie. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2015381

Freso: Oh. That was in response to CatQuest liking my name. :)

Oh.

Hail Eris, then!

My issue is with this release.

The previous cover art was erroring. So I removed it and I'm trying to replace it with the correct images and I always get an error when I try to upload.

I can upload cover art for other releases but this one will not work.

https://musicbrainz.org/edit/59514120 → "Archive release page" → https://archive.org/details/mbid-a6160493-8d86-... → "This item is no longer available. Items may be taken down for various reasons, including by decision of the uploader or due to a violation of our Terms of Use."

Looks like it had a copyright infringement or similar filed on it.

I don't understand.

Which would likely also be why the old image wasn't working.

Why would that prevent me from uploading a new one?

Because a new one would also violate the copyright of the owner of the cover art.

There should be an error message that explains that.

But isn't displaying the cover of an album fair use?

That's not our call to make.

it's doen on the archive side

Anything related to the images are on the IA's side.
