reosarevok: The code for determining what notifications go out (and what appears in an artist edit history), is not a wiki. :-p
2012-02-08 03932, 2012
reosarevok
Yeah, the code is also not the place to document stuff for users :p
2012-02-08 03905, 2012
reosarevok
(although *that* should be more clear too, yes)
2012-02-08 03917, 2012
reosarevok
(but we should document what we can at least!)

all right, thanks :)

reosarevok: But I can’t write a wiki page without knowing the code, that’s my point.
2012-02-08 03922, 2012
reosarevok
nikki, do you know what goes into the edit history?
2012-02-08 03921, 2012
Junnec
is there by any chance a way to subscribe to artists etc. depending on albums I own? something like a reverse picard
2012-02-08 03921, 2012
reosarevok
Yes and no
2012-02-08 03925, 2012
reosarevok
There's nothing official
2012-02-08 03930, 2012
reosarevok
But hrglgrmpf had some way I think?
2012-02-08 03934, 2012
reosarevok
Maybe he can help when he's around
2012-02-08 03904, 2012
reosarevok
Junnec, I'm kinda curious what kind of artists those would be
2012-02-08 03949, 2012
reosarevok
(I remember hrglgrmpf had some problems because a few of the artists kept getting edits all the time so he couldn't keep all the subscriptions he wanted or he wouldn't have time to check them all)
hawke_: you could also try asking pradig about the changes introduced by the arrangement… I suspect he knows a bit about that, being in the münchener bach-chor and all :-)

why does my query not work ? Why does it not return only THAT arid ? but instead about 300 others ?

Thad: I don’t think you specified that you were using the web service.
Wow, whoever made searching by MBID in “relate to…” — I love you.
2012-02-08 03947, 2012
reosarevok
You love bitmap
2012-02-08 03904, 2012
hawke_
Seems like that is often the case.
2012-02-08 03917, 2012

Those little details that make things work so much more smoothly
2012-02-08 03940, 2012
reosarevok adds a small note about using AND to http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/XML_Web_Service/Version_2/Search

reosarevok: the main musicbrainz website shows my mentioned link under 1) Products -> XML Web Service and also under 2) Documentation -> Development -> It's first paragraph has hyperlink again. Why are those 2 areas not pointing to the Wiki instead ??
reosarevok updates it to have the slightly less ugly link to Search
2012-02-08 03928, 2012
reosarevok
Oh, and a few changes by other people too it seems
2012-02-08 03940, 2012
Thad
reosarevok: ah. well, thanks for the AND tip... didin't even know that since I didn't see it documented. This will help me immensely with 18 million tracks on iTunes. Thanks again.
I understand what they are saying, but in the case of this double query, it would suffice perfectly.
2012-02-08 03911, 2012
Thad
reosarevok: so I will just use &limit=2 ...http://www.musicbrainz.org/ws/2/recording/?query=recording:%22home%22%20AND%20arid:c9584c27-f240-4f0e-8e82-3470111f24be&limit=2
2012-02-08 03917, 2012
reosarevok
Well, I don't know what you're trying to do exactly
2012-02-08 03924, 2012
reosarevok
But if that works for you, then it works for you!
2012-02-08 03945, 2012
Thad
reosarevok: it also doesn't appear that Lucene out-of-the-box has an "exact" operator....hmmm. In other words, do not show my recordings that "contain" the word "home", but instead the recording name is exactly titled "home".
2012-02-08 03930, 2012
reosarevok
Thad: we're getting out of my pretty small comfort zone with queries - I don't know too much about this
2012-02-08 03937, 2012
reosarevok
But if ijabz is here he probably can help
2012-02-08 03941, 2012
reosarevok
ijabz, you around?
2012-02-08 03910, 2012
Thad
I do not want "Coming Home" to be returned as a recording for Marc Broussard. reading Lucene docs now, but it must be some kind of advanced thing.

reosarevok: well, it does appear you can use boost to force a LOWER score against using a phrase, where the recording "Coming Home" was dropped from a score of 91 to 67 after using ^20 (boost 20) in my query after the recording name phrase: http://www.musicbrainz.org/ws/2/recording/?query=…
2012-02-08 03947, 2012
hawke_
Thad: what query returns 'coming home'?
2012-02-08 03900, 2012
Thad
hawke_: that one also.
2012-02-08 03901, 2012
hawke_
(for marc broussard)
2012-02-08 03925, 2012
hawke_
Thad: I don’t see 'coming home' in the results anywhere
2012-02-08 03904, 2012
Thad
index 15 in that XML output
2012-02-08 03920, 2012
Thad
(the 15th recording)
2012-02-08 03905, 2012
Thad
remove the ^20 and you will see the difference as well.
2012-02-08 03911, 2012
hawke_
For me that’s “Going Home”
2012-02-08 03929, 2012
Thad
err, Going Home.. sorry
2012-02-08 03932, 2012

righto

Oh, OK. :-D
2012-02-08 03913, 2012

hawke_: Marc's a very..."homey" guy :)

ijabz is really the best one to answer this stuff, I’m afraid.
2012-02-08 03956, 2012

out of curiousity, why do you need an exact match only?
