The case that I had there was a release with a known release date, label, catalogue number, cover art, and even sample audio from one of the tracks... just no tracklist published yet :)

Germans, does this seem correct? "Ellend du hast umbrangen mich"
2011-08-29 24151, 2011
Leftmost
I'm not German, but it doesn't seem correct.
2011-08-29 24132, 2011
reosarevok is used to Naxos failing at German

It seems, in fact, utterly wrong.

Ok, step 2, any idea how to correct it?

(note it was composed in 1400 so it could be just weird)

I can't even figure out what it means.
2011-08-29 24152, 2011
nikki guesses it means something like "misery, you killed me"

kepstin-laptop ends up dropping his musicbrainz_db and reimporting from dumps as the easiest way around the replication failures he was seeing :/

Leftmost
A lot of sources have "umfangen" or "umbfangen".
2011-08-29 24129, 2011
nikki
googling suggests it's umfangen
2011-08-29 24144, 2011
kepstin-laptop
well, at least that server's on a UPS now, so I won't get that problem again...
2011-08-29 24113, 2011
Leftmost
The b could be a legitimate archaic spelling.
2011-08-29 24139, 2011
Leftmost
So something like "Ellend, du hast umbfangen mich".
2011-08-29 24143, 2011

Which is better.

And someone can come fix it later
2011-08-29 24122, 2011
kepstin-laptop was going to ask for opinions about edits like http://musicbrainz.org/edit/15104504 - but it seems like reosarevok has already expressed his opinion on it :)
2011-08-29 24136, 2011
reosarevok
Well
2011-08-29 24142, 2011
reosarevok
That I agree doesn't mean everyone does
2011-08-29 24138, 2011
kepstin-laptop
the thing it does is remove the recording from the complete list of performances of the original work... But that's a UI issue.
2011-08-29 24105, 2011
kepstin-laptop
it wouldn't be hard to make the work page also show performances of the "later versions" of that work, I'd think
2011-08-29 24121, 2011
Mineo
reosarevok: with old german titles everything could be correct :)
2011-08-29 24112, 2011
kepstin-laptop
hmm. I really should make an RFC to rename that Work→Work “Later Version” AR to “Derivative Version”
2011-08-29 24134, 2011
kepstin-laptop
something to do this evening, I guess :)
2011-08-29 24143, 2011
reosarevok
Some people didn't agree with that when I probed the list :/
2011-08-29 24156, 2011
nikki
kepstin-laptop: and the japanese capitalisation one? :P
2011-08-29 24146, 2011
kepstin-laptop
... hmm. The japanese capitalization one probably needs a little work, I don't think I actually deal with the case of a Japanese artist releasing something with a tracklist that's entirely in english
2011-08-29 24113, 2011
kepstin-laptop
which happens a lot, and people regularly run 'guess case' over them, then other people regularly switch them back to the original case...

the only specific wording I have deals with e.g. english words embedded in a title that's otherwise japanese.
nikki shamelessly links it in the hope of getting people to add more links, since there are only 198 right now

ah, not cool. extended power outage at my house in the middle of a database import... It probably doesn't have enough juice in the UPS to finish that, so it's gonna shut down in the middle...

You clearly should have a crank-powered device to charge it

Isn't this the second or third power failure during a db import for you, kepstin?

What should I do if a release gives a composer for a (classical) piece, but it was later found out that he was not the real composer?
2011-08-29 24142, 2011

There are docs in the documentation on the site.

reosarevok, AC?

AC and an annotation note, maybe.
2011-08-29 24127, 2011
reosarevok
Leftmost, it feels a bit weird to credit something to John Bedingham as John Dunstable
2011-08-29 24136, 2011
Leftmost
Yeah. Might be a misuse as well. Not sure.
2011-08-29 24153, 2011
kepstin-laptop
reosarevok: in that case, I'd just say it was a mistake in the printing, and that we fixed it...
2011-08-29 24159, 2011
kepstin-laptop
and mention the wrong composer in the ac.
2011-08-29 24157, 2011

ac?
2011-08-29 24159, 2011

You mean annotation?

uh, well if there is no label or format info i must have added it beofre we stored that stuff.. it's probably from the library, but i can't accses it now becasue it's closed for renovation after the bomb.. so no, i dont :(

dude.. it was added in 2004

ah but all my musicvis packed in a box right now
2011-08-29 24124, 2011
reosarevok
(I asked because ehrgeiz wanted to use as part of a boxset, and I imagine if you added it as a standalone is because it is)
i cant say.. i know that releases like boxsets were split up in the library.. but i don't know if that was one of those or actually a a stand alone release
2011-08-29 24133, 2011
kepstin-laptop suggests renaming every track on that release to [unknown]...
