navap: what do we do with those "historical" pages? I want them gone forever, but it seems some people prefer to keep all of the history....

Throw the lot of them into a history namespace, it takes them out of the search results (unless manually specifed) and otherwise separates them from the rest of the wiki.

is that a simple rename?

hmm, as poo as ArchLinux is, the ABS is rather nice.

Where nice is "simple and easy to use/understand".

Sure beats packaging things for Debian. :|

I think the namespace will have to be created, it might be possible to just move/rename articles, but I'm not sure if that will actually move them to a different namespace, or just change their names.

pronik probably meant ' are you a sysop on wiki.musicbrainz.org? '
I'm a little bit confused on how to use Picard. Should I scan the music first or lookup the music first?

xcdfgkjhgcv: scan first, if that doesn't yield any results then you should lookup

Looking up uses the characteristics to try to find a match - number of tracks, track lengths, metadata. Scan looks at the music itself, and tries to find a match using the fingerprint.

so it's nikkeee, nikki or djce for now :)

navap
Yeah
2009-05-28 14844, 2009
xcdfgkjhgcv
When scanning, I find that the tracks sometimes get split up into lots of different albums.

nikkeee, nikkeee: I know you don't talk much lately, could you create a History namespace, please? Thanks

Scan tends to put my tracks into various artist albums which is really annoying.
2009-05-28 14842, 2009
pronik
xcdfgkjhgcv: yeah, it is. Try to cluster your tracks first and lookup the cluster then
2009-05-28 14808, 2009
xcdfgkjhgcv
But isn't lookup inaccurate if you are missing an album tag?
2009-05-28 14806, 2009
xcdfgkjhgcv
Clustering and then looking up the tracks seems to give them a different artist!
2009-05-28 14849, 2009
xcdfgkjhgcv
I've done a bit of personal testing and found that either scanning and then looking up is the best option, or looking up and then scanning is.
2009-05-28 14857, 2009
xcdfgkjhgcv
I think looking up and then scanning is the best.

Is something wrong with PUID submission system?

Probably, MusicIP's service has been patchy as hell lately.

I personally have given up on PUIDs entirely, and have done for a while now.

what's wrong with it besides the submission problems?
