        ok, I've lowered the global request limit by 500.

        that will give us some more 503 until we can figure out the search server mess.

        hmm. I think I have http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/User:Kepstin/Capitali… in a reasonable state now, maybe I should just send an RFC email and see what other people think.
      • 2011-10-01 27442, 2011

      • nikki
        kepstin: sure :) (although I'm still not sure we need the bit about all caps katakana, it seems a bit weird to have something there that's discouraged and people are always free to argue that something is an exception to the usual guidelines for whatever reason)
      • 2011-10-01 27415, 2011

      • kepstin
        hmm. true; I'll just drop that.

        yay found another bug :) if you forget to select a link-type the change direction button doesn't work anymore. its displayed but the relation will still be the wrong way round when created.

        Different recording by different performer released by different label.
      • 2011-10-01 27422, 2011

      • ehrgeiz
        why do my efforts editing stuff at MB end at rewriting/correcting wikipedia articles?

        shows how easy it is to incorrectly merge recordings if you're not careful
      • 2011-10-01 27457, 2011

      • nikki
        that's a merge release groups edit though

        :D
      • 2011-10-01 27402, 2011

      • pbryan
        I had assumed that the title of a release is not sufficient to make it the same release group.
      • 2011-10-01 27413, 2011

      • pbryan
        It needs to be related in a more meaningful way, no?
      • 2011-10-01 27424, 2011

      • pbryan
        Same recording(s), same performer(s), etc...
      • 2011-10-01 27411, 2011

      • Leftmost
        Title isn't sufficient, but it needn't be the same recordings at all.
      • 2011-10-01 27430, 2011

      • pbryan
        Leftmost: Example, where there are unrelated recordings?
      • 2011-10-01 27446, 2011

      • pbryan
        I get the remastered recordings being different, but they're at least related.
      • 2011-10-01 27456, 2011

      • Leftmost
        pbryan, I said they don't have to be the same. I didn't say unrelated.
      • 2011-10-01 27416, 2011

      • pbryan
        Okay, then I think I'm seeing it in the same way then...
      • 2011-10-01 27455, 2011

      • Leftmost
        Why are those release groups not credited to the performers?
      • 2011-10-01 27448, 2011

      • pbryan
        Because piano rolls are almost always credited to their composers, with smaller credit given to performers and/or arrangers—if at all.
      • 2011-10-01 27449, 2011

      • drsaunde1
        title is still a good earlier indicator and maybe if those releases were from 90 years later it might look like a merge to me
      • 2011-10-01 27410, 2011

      • drsaunde1
        context of the time, no way

      • drsaunde1
        *by no way i mean no way wrong to vote no, i'm sure that editor will probably cancel so i won't topple it with a no from me

        i wonder if ACs on http://musicbrainz.org/release/0653d972-fbe9-4427… should be transl(iter)ated, too... http://musicbrainz.org/edit/4569514 says it’s ‟a virtual duplicate album”
      • 2011-10-01 27403, 2011

      • ehrgeiz
        v6lur: yes. virtual duplicate = pseudo-release status

        is there a way to search solely by track count?
