if you need to ask how to contribute, you do not understand GSoC and are not qualified to apply.

man, ayumi hamasaki stuff is kind of annoying, they make heavy use of the "A/H symbol" in release titles :/
If you haven't read the three wiki pages linked to in the 2nd paragraph, you should do that before anything else.

If you feel the website is going super slow. deactivate FUNKEY CAA user script — archive.org is under maintenance and loading CAA from it can saturate your browser request queue (like my case)

kepstin: I don't think I agree with your comment that Latin-on-Japanese releases doesn't count because it's "stylized". I mean, we do have artist "P!nk" with album "M!ssundaztood" and if that's not stylized I don't know what is.
2016-03-01 06125, 2016
kepstin
I'm saying specifically that the *front cover* image shouldn't be used as a reference, because it's often stylized *differently* from the rest of the release
2016-03-01 06102, 2016
kepstin
in particular, it is often romanized when other places on the release use a aknji/kana name.
2016-03-01 06126, 2016
hawke1
kepstin: All else being equal I would take cover art over spine/disc art though.
2016-03-01 06143, 2016
hawke1
It is the most prominent/visible name.
2016-03-01 06150, 2016
kepstin
for japanese releases, doing the opposite generally will give more consistent/meaningful results
2016-03-01 06108, 2016
hawke1
Consistent I'll accept, but why more meaningful?
2016-03-01 06110, 2016
kepstin
spine is by far the most prominent when browsing releases, generally :)
2016-03-01 06118, 2016
kepstin
(in stores, etc)
2016-03-01 06155, 2016
hawke1
Seems unlikely given that it's covered by the obi. ;-)
2016-03-01 06124, 2016
kepstin
well, the side of the obi usually reproduces the spine almost exactly
2016-03-01 06153, 2016
kepstin
(although on releases by western artists, the obi sometimes has katakana while the spine has latin lettering, but that's a different issue :/ )

hawke: a few things. OBI is made for in‐store, it will allow convenient sort order and CONSISTENT script used store wide
2016-03-01 06152, 2016
jesus2099
it’s removable, at home you will see the spine
2016-03-01 06101, 2016
jesus2099
the spine generally holds the intended artist name
2016-03-01 06106, 2016
jesus2099
and release nale
2016-03-01 06108, 2016
jesus2099
and release name
2016-03-01 06127, 2016
hawke1
jesus2099: Why do you say it's "intended"? How do we know the intent?
2016-03-01 06145, 2016
jesus2099
some categories of japanese albums do have a genuine tracklist (usualy mix of english and japanese) and a stylised tracklist (usually english)
2016-03-01 06101, 2016
jesus2099
for instance, 80s hard rock albums
2016-03-01 06113, 2016
jesus2099
ASAI Kenichi (and his bands) albums, etc.

japanese pops (or dance or stuff like that) singers like HAMASAKI usually show a latin name but the intended artist name is the genuine (cf. main spine)
2016-03-01 06136, 2016
jesus2099
hawke1: intented because long lasting, the spine is solidely attached to the release, unlike the obi
2016-03-01 06126, 2016
jesus2099
for hard rock and rock releases with 2 tracklists, the outer pacjkage usually shows the english and the booklet and spine (and all websites) will show the genuine
2016-03-01 06130, 2016
hawke1
So is the cover, no?

but there is a bipolar mindset in some japanese releases that IMO we should keep
2016-03-01 06135, 2016
jesus2099
many oldies also had 2 tracklists 2 artist names (1. latin english and 2. mix of japanese and katakana english)
