ah oh… hmmm…

can I submit changes to make it like a track parser stuff so that we can paste all the ISRCs at once ?

imagine if I do a userjs for this page, nikki ! How quirked !

Thanks very muich !

jesus2099: if you know the mbid, you can load it with isrcs in the query string

e.g. mbid=somembid&isrc1-1=isrchere&isrc1-2=isrchere (where isrc1-2 is the isrc for medium 1 track 2)

hrglgrmpf: the deleted artist thing seems like a bug

hrglgrmpf: or rather, seems like it *was* a bug at some point

nikki: thanks ! :) Actually I’m making a textarea that splits all ISRCs it finds to your isrc-x-x inputs

v6lur, how would you traduce "Ristpulkade tants" and "Pikk ingliska"?

(adding aliases now to Tubin's works)

rist- 'cross', pulkade 'of sticks' -> dance of the cross-sticks (T-sticks?)

and "long... englishka?" i don't know :(

Hmm

I guess that's why the release left that part in Estonian :p

"Long anglaise"

as used on http://tartu.ester.ee/record=b1742673~S1*est

also, http://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/anglaise (noun, meaning 1)

nikki: I guess you didn’t upgrade Opera yet … ne new version makes writing userjs incredibly horrible http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?...

jesus2099: no, I didn't :)

v6lur: oh, changed then

I know your update strategy… you’re really right… I do this for almost everythnig except Opera but I don’t know why… anyway I really should not :)

nikki: do you want to drop an eye on my userjs to upgrade your page ? Or are you ok just like this ?

nikki: sorry to disturb again but could you integrate my small code in your page, please ? (it matches all ISRCs in a text area and quickly/basicly marks the duplicates if any)→because we can’t submit anthenticate with Opera so my userjs ixs useless :/

it’s very small

code

well, “very small”

or well, maybe I can try with FF if you’re not there…

ok it worksed ! (I had to use FF for my userjs) http://musicbrainz.org/edit/15936402

nikki: see your private tabe

PM?

Anybody know wtf http://musicbrainz.org/edit/15935186 is changing?

Either the track is being removed, or there's a bug

:p

Yes, I think track 1 is being removed

FunKyEnGlishCapsOnFRenChMistAK

I would think so too, but shouldn’t it show the rest of the tracks? given that it’s “old tracklist”/“new tracklist”?

That edit makes it look as if there is only one track and it’s being removed.

You're right, there's something fishy there

I just did a test and I can't find a way to remove the first track in a tracklist without adjusting the track numbers of other tracks

Ask ocharles / warp?

(argh, setting aliases for 5 movements + main work is a huge pain)

hawke_: it's removing a track

hawke_: the display will be better when we add "context" around changing elements

the track is being removed in order to merge the tracklist with another that is one track less

i saw that but did not tell

;)

link

:D

^^

why is login required to view edits?

because

Mostly, yes, I think "because"

Hmm

I wonder if all that is fine

he’s a keen developer

I don't know the guy and I have never developed a mobile app

But if that's a decent tutorial we might want to tweet about it :p

no, it's not a decent tutorial on how to use the MB API :)

Then maybe we should indicate them why it is not so they can use it correctly :P

indecent tutorial

Totally NSFW!

:D

not safe for what ?

No, that would be "NSFW?" not "NSFW!"

:p

ah oh true

Now I know NSFWTF

Oh :)

and NSFOMFG

ocharles: So, shouldn’t that “context” just be a matter of showing the entire tracklist when one is changed?

that's one option

though that's exactly what we used to do, iirc, and it was too much

I plan now to add 1 track context around each change

Ah. Hmm.

Just seems wrong to say “old /tracklist/” and not show the tracklist

Even worse since it doesn’t even show which track # is being removed

sure it does

Well…kinda, but at least in that one, it just looks like it’s numbering the tracks being edited (as in “this is the first track being changed”). Perhaps clearer when there’s context.

well if you want to read it that way... but it's not making up a track name, so I can't see why it would make up a track number

What I find slightly confusing about it is that an edit like this changes track positions for all the remaining tracks, but that's not reflected in the diff

2 -> 1, etc.

yes, because if you show that, you end up displaying the entire tracklist again

I opted to just show the chanegs a user made, outside changing track positions

jesus2099: I can't find any issue with pending edits, do you have a release where it's broken?

ocharles: Fix one thing, break another eh?

What’s wrong with displaying the entire tracklist? Just that it becomes too much info?

hawke__, I'd argue it becomes so huge you can barely see the changes

(we had this discussion a long time ago)

hm, url type isn't autodetected when adding youtube links

Yeah

I think I might have broken it

(while making it autodetect URL for youtube *videos*)

hawke__: we *used* to have just that

Open a ticket and assign it to me, please :)

I imagine there's a good reason why we now don't do that

ocharles: I can’t think of one. :-p

unvotable edits isn't good enough for you?

because that's why we did this

They’re unvotable now…

But, MB needs better diff views in general so it’s just one more problem with them

No

certainly not a showstopper

Removals are hard to vote now

While everything was hard to vote before

:p

(of course, if we can find a way for everything, including removals, to be easy to vote, that'll be better)

bitmap: http://musicbrainz.org/release/632e30ef-ff89-42... for instance

and http://musicbrainz.org/artist/55f2ac75-cd62-4f3... for the attach recs to work bug (the stuff appears in sidebar :)

jesus2099: thanks

np:)

Oh, true

I saw the sidebar one

Which happens every time there are no recordings to show

bitmap: I think I remember also that when no AR are on track, it triggers an error but not sure

(inline ARs)

hmm, I don't see any error on the first link

you mean you actually see the last 2 tracks' ARs inline ?

yes

maybe I shall update the userjs :)

bitmap: I’ll tell you if it’s still the case next time I try seriously

okay :)

fixed the sidebar issue

jesus2099: actually it's linked from the index page there, except crossed out because I'm lazy and don't update it enough

nikki ocharles : my www irc hanged so if you sent me private stuff I did not get them… so nikki no problem with the edit note, then ? :)

bitmap: thanks for the fix :)

it's fine
