yep, still do in some instances
2005-12-06 34025, 2005

and they differ from the listing on the cover being more correct?
2005-12-06 34030, 2005
yllona
here's an example of incorrect cover art: http://tinyurl.com/bk4pp this is her first solo album (also a big hit/masterpiece) and her name has been misspelled consistently ever since... 1969

her name is "riperton" not "ripperton"
2005-12-06 34033, 2005
yllona
and then there's the "charley pride"/charlie pride situation, and you'd think the record companies would finally get it right, as he's sold damn near 20 million records :)

I'm here, working a bit on tunepimp. I have a prefix installation of libmusicbrainz, so I'd like to add support for this in tunepimp's configure.in

a good idea for a name of a wiki page collecting albums that are duplicated in different scripts / because of unicode issues? (like the Pi case)
2005-12-06 34005, 2005

hey there all...
2005-12-06 34046, 2005
teleGUISE
yllona: I was skimming the logs and saw you mention Minnie Riperton.. not that am g holds any weight but they say Gems from 1961 and lead vocalist of Rotary Connection 1968..
2005-12-06 34044, 2005
teleGUISE
shepard: so you went to the summit? and met all the asshats ;)?
yllona: i was asking for a good name for such a page.. i guess you misunderstood that as "is this a good idea" ;)
2005-12-06 34045, 2005
luks is not sure if he is interested in fixing nazi music...
2005-12-06 34051, 2005
yllona
teleGUISE: yes, she was a "staff female vocalist" (and receptionist) at chess records. so the gems dissolved sometime in 1966/1967, and the rotary connection had 1st release in 1967/1968. also too released some solo 45's under the name "andrea davis". but i will go back and check my mods
2005-12-06 34013, 2005

I'll fix it then
2005-12-06 34023, 2005

I can do it too :P

nikki` is used to finding badly encoded polish and lithuanian and turkish, and doesn't care about the contents
2005-12-06 34007, 2005

nikki: tons of albums we virtually duplicated although they were never released in the script?
2005-12-06 34012, 2005
teleGUISE
yllona: ok.. i voted yes.. and then was going to add some album release info and saw that on the biography page so I thought I'd ask... they many times differ a year or so.. so wasnt sure who was right
2005-12-06 34032, 2005
nikki`
Shepard: yes, loads of japanese transliterations
2005-12-06 34042, 2005

luks: yeah, and then there's that neo-nazi girl group that's getting so much media attention here in the US.
2005-12-06 34046, 2005

will be a fun then collecting them :)
2005-12-06 34055, 2005

there's a neo-nazi girl group getting attention?
2005-12-06 34007, 2005

I heard of them
2005-12-06 34012, 2005
ojnkpjg
what are they called?
2005-12-06 34033, 2005
nikki`
if it's those twins or sisters or whatrever who were brainwashed by their parents from california IIRC.
2005-12-06 34045, 2005
yllona
ojnkpjg: let me look, i'm trying to ignore it.. kinda makes me crazy
2005-12-06 34006, 2005
Shepard
i always thought the idea is that the fact that neo nazis are too stupid to enter them correctly protects us from having too much of it
that's different, they're recognised as separate places
2005-12-06 34054, 2005
nikki`
that's the one I rememebr
2005-12-06 34020, 2005

They need to have the background to understand why certain things are happening," said April, a stay-at-home mom who no longer lives with the twins' father. "
2005-12-06 34032, 2005
ojnkpjg
in most places, that fits the description of 'unemployed'

Well, actually not ojnkpjg. =\
2005-12-06 34056, 2005

I like the way they 'want to stay white'

2005-12-06 34011, 2005

as if their skin colour will change if they don't do something drastic

2005-12-06 34008, 2005

But even before that, April had decided that Bakersfield was not "white" enough, so she sold her home, and hopes that she and the girls can find an all-white community in the Pacific Northwest.
2005-12-06 34015, 2005

yeah, good luck with that

how should i tag a remix compilation?
2005-12-06 34033, 2005
koogah2005
the mix artist is the same for all tracks
2005-12-06 34050, 2005
koogah2005
do i tag it as one artist or various?
2005-12-06 34013, 2005
ojnkpjg
if they're remixes, the artist is the original performer
2005-12-06 34017, 2005
koogah2005
ok
2005-12-06 34031, 2005
ojnkpjg
re: comp vs. remix, i'd choose whichever is less obvious
2005-12-06 34034, 2005
ojnkpjg
since it can't be both right now
2005-12-06 34039, 2005
koogah2005
how about the individual tracks?
2005-12-06 34044, 2005
ojnkpjg
probably compilation in this case
2005-12-06 34046, 2005
koogah2005
should they includ (feat.) ?
2005-12-06 34005, 2005
ojnkpjg
(X remix)
2005-12-06 34006, 2005
ojnkpjg
maybe
2005-12-06 34012, 2005
ojnkpjg
if that's what they are
2005-12-06 34034, 2005
koogah2005
im thinking of the original artists that have been remixed
2005-12-06 34040, 2005
koogah2005
they do partake in the song
2005-12-06 34053, 2005
koogah2005
since they were singing it before they were mixed :)
2005-12-06 34037, 2005
ojnkpjg
the original artist is the track artist
2005-12-06 34040, 2005
ojnkpjg
so you don't need feat.

some moron just called me and starting insulting me when I told them they've got the wrong number.

good
2005-12-06 34048, 2005
nikki` also used 1471 to get their telephone number, just in case.
I wouldn't particularly care if it were the wrong number, it's when it is and they stream off a load of fucks with occasional words inbetween that it annoys me.
2005-12-06 34042, 2005
chocomo
hello. they called *you*
2005-12-06 34044, 2005

it's not *my* fault they're too stupid to dial the right number!

2005-12-06 34058, 2005
PRAEst76

2005-12-06 34013, 2005
PRAEst76
Though TBH BT might just ask if you want to change your number.
2005-12-06 34051, 2005
PRAEst76
I hate phone calls so much that I have a caller display phone and reject withheld numbers automatically.
2005-12-06 34013, 2005
nikki`
I should do that, but that probably costs more
2005-12-06 34030, 2005
nikki`
the only people who even know my phone number are my mum, my nan and my isp.
2005-12-06 34041, 2005
nikki`
I just pretend I don't have one otherwise
2005-12-06 34042, 2005
PRAEst76
It does. BT takes bloody liberties that way
2005-12-06 34000, 2005
nikki`
because I might as well not do, I can't understand people very well on the phone.
2005-12-06 34001, 2005
PRAEst76
Most of my bill is charges for services.
2005-12-06 34052, 2005
PRAEst76
I think it's about £2 for caller display and about £4 to block withheld dumbers. Both services that they should include in their standar line-rental
2005-12-06 34033, 2005
PRAEst76
They give customers the option to harrass people so they can make more money, the least they can do is give their other paying customers the option to opt out of that without charging them extra.
2005-12-06 34033, 2005

I'll just stick to giving people my mobile number
2005-12-06 34038, 2005

at least that tells me who's calling.
2005-12-06 34050, 2005

I get more sms spam than actual text messages, but it normally tells me who's calling.

PRAEst76: when in lived in Virginia, there was some lovesick drunk that called at least twice a week. He was very polite, though. He always asked "may I please speak to LInda?" or "can you tell linda that i love her?" this happened for *years*
2005-12-06 34008, 2005
nikki`
of course, all the important places like banks withhold their bloody number!
2005-12-06 34015, 2005
nikki`
then I have to pay to ring my answer phone.
2005-12-06 34028, 2005
nikki`
and they leave useless messages like 'this is *mumble* can you please ring back on *mumble* between the hours of *mumble* and *mumble*?"
hmmm, why is "Johann Strauß" in the database as "Johann Strauss"?
