        reosarevok: Whoops, you’re right. Confusing MBz and Freebase schemata again.
      • 2012-04-10 10106, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Does it make sense to show the "Filter" thingy in an empty list? http://musicbrainz.org/artist/94889a4c-9c3c-4fd2-…
      • 2012-04-10 10117, 2012

      • crism
        reosarevok: Song is a kind of Work, of course. What kind of choral thingy is it? IOW, how would you describe it if not constrained by the MBz types?
      • 2012-04-10 10101, 2012

      • reosarevok
        I would *probably* use song, but then, I'd probably use song too for stuff which is really a madrigal, for example
      • 2012-04-10 10126, 2012

      • reosarevok
        (and since I haven't *heard* this one, I can only take a guess)
      • 2012-04-10 10107, 2012

      • CallerNo6 suspects that if reo doesn't know what it means, it probably isn't very meaningful.
      • 2012-04-10 10158, 2012

      • reosarevok
        CallerNo6: it was added to have something to use for pop songs
      • 2012-04-10 10118, 2012

      • CallerNo6
        yeah, understood
      • 2012-04-10 10136, 2012

      • reosarevok
        But it still makes sense to use it for songs in the classical sense - problem is that "song" in the classical sense is not too well defined either
      • 2012-04-10 10154, 2012

      • bitmap
        reosarevok: the arrow issue is fixed now

        http://key.soundslabel.com/vocaloid/ ... man, eventually we're going to run out of people in japan who *haven't* done vocaloid music ;)
      • 2012-04-10 10102, 2012

      • kepstin-laptop
        the real questions is what to use for track artists...
      • 2012-04-10 10121, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        you could use CSG ;) call the vocaloids the performers and the people the composers :P
      • 2012-04-10 10147, 2012

      • kepstin-laptop
        but do I credit it to the composers or the arrangers?
      • 2012-04-10 10102, 2012

      • kepstin-laptop
        given that the arrangers really have more influence over the 'sound' of the particular track.
      • 2012-04-10 10121, 2012

      • kepstin-laptop loves the new track reordering buttons in the release editor
      • 2012-04-10 10109, 2012

      • reosarevok would like them more if they were optional
      • 2012-04-10 10119, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Given how rare reordering is, they stand in the way
      • 2012-04-10 10159, 2012

      • SultS
        a user brought up a confusing wording for related remixes on recording pages: http://musicbrainz.org/edit/17147501 … is is nessesary to have “by X” displayed for remixes?
      • 2012-04-10 10106, 2012

      • kepstin-laptop
        hmm. actually, using the arrangers as track artists on this release probably isn't a bad idea.

        heh, yeah, heard about that
      • 2012-04-10 10121, 2012

        and not just “fuck you I hate this idea” ;-)

        hawke_1: it shouldn't mention audiobook style, we have no audiobook style.
      • 2012-04-10 10140, 2012

      • hawke_1
        warp: That was mentioned in the RFC as well — I linked it to where audiobook style will be when we have one
      • 2012-04-10 10114, 2012

      • hawke_1
        I’m pretty sure we will have one eventually, and I’d rather not re-RFC this for something like that
      • 2012-04-10 10108, 2012

      • warp
        hawke_1: eventually is a long time. I don't want our _official_ guidelines to have broken links that long.
      • 2012-04-10 10100, 2012

      • hawke_1
        Well, I could offer to work on audiobook style. :-)
      • 2012-04-10 10113, 2012

      • reosarevok
        hawke_1: you could keep it in your proposal, and as part of the RFV, but say it's to be added to the page once we have an audiobook style
      • 2012-04-10 10133, 2012

      • reosarevok
        (no second RFC needed then, since it will be accepted with the rest)
      • 2012-04-10 10102, 2012

      • CallerNo6
        oh, I like that. a proposal can be more of a migration path.
      • 2012-04-10 10105, 2012

      • hawke_1
        Yeah, but who’s gonna remember to change that (yeah, I know: I should)
      • 2012-04-10 10129, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, you should :p
      • 2012-04-10 10141, 2012

      • reosarevok
        But the ticket could be left open
      • 2012-04-10 10148, 2012

      • reosarevok
        as a reminder
      • 2012-04-10 10144, 2012

      • hawke_1
        Could work
      • 2012-04-10 10104, 2012

      • hawke_1
        warp: Alright, anything else before I RFC-2 this thing? ;-)

      • hawke_1
        Anyone know enough about JIRA to say whether “create subtask” is what I want to do for this?
      • 2012-04-10 10151, 2012

      • reosarevok
        I'd just add it to the ticket
      • 2012-04-10 10159, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        that could work; reosarevok and nikki are the ones who decide how to use jira for style though :P
      • 2012-04-10 10116, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Subtask is an option, but feels a bit overkill
      • 2012-04-10 10132, 2012

      • warp
        hawke_1: yeah, found another possible issue.
      • 2012-04-10 10138, 2012

      • hawke_1
        ianmcorvidae: I’m just wondering if subtasks do silly things like make it impossible to close the ticket until the subtask is done or such
      • 2012-04-10 10146, 2012

      • ianmcorvidae
        unsure
      • 2012-04-10 10107, 2012

      • hawke_1

        "[Theatre] Track Artist Credits should be as listed on the release"... meaning on the back cover only?
      • 2012-04-10 10124, 2012

      • 2012-04-10 10102, 2012

      • moufl
        they should be grouped no matter what
      • 2012-04-10 10114, 2012

      • reosarevok
        Because they're added as different relationships
      • 2012-04-10 10126, 2012

      • reosarevok agrees that they should be displayed all together or all separate
      • 2012-04-10 10141, 2012

      • reosarevok
        But I'm not sure if it's that easy with the current code

      • 2012-04-10 10124, 2012

      • reosarevok
        It's just that the way we store - display this stuff kinda sucks
      • 2012-04-10 10126, 2012

      • moufl
        my guess is they should be separated
      • 2012-04-10 10156, 2012

      • moufl
        stored seperately, _maybe_ displayed grouped
      • 2012-04-10 10101, 2012
