there is no reconing for that all those NS artists really had "nature sounds" as a credit, some probably just omit it, other just use "sounds for mbirds" and other agian are like "from bluetit with love"
2011-08-17 22953, 2011
CatCat
honestly, it is
2011-08-17 22957, 2011

Some documentation should be added about how to use artist credits for SPAs
2011-08-17 22941, 2011
CatCat
use one of a VA, no artist, unknown/anon/trad (merge anon and trad?) and use artist credit as on release
2011-08-17 22949, 2011
CatCat
if it's "nature sounds" use a agodman tag
2011-08-17 22957, 2011
reosarevok
No way merge anon and trad
2011-08-17 22959, 2011

lol CatCat, a bluebird and some camels

It was bad enough the first time

warp: :)
2011-08-17 22912, 2011
CatCat
reosarevok: yea
2011-08-17 22926, 2011
reosarevok
They're not the same
2011-08-17 22933, 2011
CatCat
but now i can fianlly ahve "anon." as an artist credit
2011-08-17 22949, 2011
CatCat goes to fix a thing
2011-08-17 22908, 2011
CallerNo6
did somebody say "trad"?
2011-08-17 22935, 2011
Mineo thinks we should first remove "This page is glorious history" from /doc/SPA before doing anything else :)
Mineo: oh damn, it took me ages to transclude all those pages properly (had to do it twice 'cause of a bug...)
2011-08-17 22925, 2011
reosarevok
CatCat: all the SPAs are technically wrong things made up by somebody
2011-08-17 22926, 2011
CatCat
listen reo, it was split out originally as "[gregorian]"
2011-08-17 22930, 2011
CallerNo6 is re-reading the old SPA cleanup thread. Surprised that [gregorian/religious] was retained.
2011-08-17 22940, 2011
CatCat
i argued for merging it bac to anon.
2011-08-17 22942, 2011
CatCat
it was merged.
2011-08-17 22956, 2011
reosarevok
CallerNo6, I imagine it was retained as a way of separating those for easier cleanup
2011-08-17 22907, 2011
reosarevok
Of course, I wonder if anyone ever tried to clean them up at all)
2011-08-17 22910, 2011
CatCat
but then (once i was on my sabbatical or whatever from musicbrainz) it was apperantly made a new thing
2011-08-17 22918, 2011

hmm. it would probably be a good idea to propose merging the subsets of unknown and no artist back in, and allowing the use of artist credits to distinguish them... once we have the ability to search by artist credit.
2011-08-17 22918, 2011
CallerNo6
reosarevok: good point
2011-08-17 22920, 2011
Mineo
nikki: eww :(
2011-08-17 22947, 2011
CatCat
rel music should be under anon, not unknown
2011-08-17 22950, 2011
reosarevok
kepstin-laptop, I said that before
2011-08-17 22957, 2011
CatCat
take a look at the music there
2011-08-17 22901, 2011
reosarevok
CatCat, not all religious music is anonymous
2011-08-17 22909, 2011
CatCat
i don't care what someone wrote on a outdated wikipage
CatCat, if you know something there is anon, move it to anon!
2011-08-17 22939, 2011
kepstin-laptop
CatCat: then feel free to move the tracks/recordings on that release to anon
2011-08-17 22944, 2011
CatCat
arguably [spiritual] also
2011-08-17 22946, 2011
reosarevok
After all, if it is a subset of unknown
2011-08-17 22953, 2011
reosarevok
It is there to be fixed
2011-08-17 22959, 2011
CatCat
IT ISN§T A SUBSET OF UKNOWN
2011-08-17 22913, 2011
CatCat
asome one made this "subset" stuff up
2011-08-17 22928, 2011
reosarevok
It is. That's what the guidelines say it is. If it passed, it was probably because someone approved it
2011-08-17 22945, 2011
reosarevok
And it can't be just merged into anon because we don't know if all of it is anon!
2011-08-17 22905, 2011
kepstin-laptop
(and because we don't know, it's under unknown)
2011-08-17 22940, 2011
reosarevok
I think BF wanted less SPAs, although maybe it wasn't the case with this one
2011-08-17 22941, 2011
CatCat
it wasn't supposed ot be sequined from anon in the first palce, thne it eas merged with spiritual and soem islamic and world music crap (not that that msuic is crap)
2011-08-17 22956, 2011
reosarevok
Well, that sounds like religious music too :p
2011-08-17 22907, 2011
CatCat
peopel were originally arguinf for merging anon into unknown you know
