ok my last request: can i get an approve on https://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/46760133 ? thanks!

yep

tyvm

if there's anything i hate so much on mb, it's when artist has been hijacked

aaaaaaargh

One reason why I mostly add a disambig to everything

see that a lot on discogs too sadly

which sucks because a discogs link is usually my main way of disambiguating :P

an entity has been (presumably) added as a french group with 2 releases, then some guy added a VA release, another guy added remixer relationship, then disambiguation has been changed twice, added multiple discogs links, etc...

this edit history is just sad: https://musicbrainz.org/artist/19a643ad-143d-47...

Gives and editor something to do :)

luckily it seems that another entity exists for the french group so i'll just move the 2-3 releases over there and remove the discogs link

is there a way to automatically change the AC on tracks from the release artist?

oh found it

should be cleaned up now i guess. except VA, but screw those

!m culinko

You're doing good work, culinko!

Leo_Verto: oh i found out why https://musicbrainz.org/edit/46700256 looked funky. it was no bug just that the relationship credited the entity as "Matt Vice". i fixed it in https://musicbrainz.org/edit/46761299. not sure why it didn't occur to me back then since i know you can credit people differently in relationships... was probably tired back then

<3

hm i didn't know removing the custom AC from relationship is an autoedit

got an artist with four different corresponding discogs duplicate artists

there are probably some with substantially more :P

I suspect it's because they're involved in a ton of stuff and yet nobody knows who they are

oh fun, an album where an editor just didn't bother adding the tracks they couldn't find an existing artist entity for, and even helpfully explained so in their edit comment

:D

[03:42] <culinko> hm i didn't know removing the custom AC from relationship is an autoedit

that's.. possibly a bug?

djr013: atleast it was explained instead of done silently :)

(which imho is worse becasue then you're left with "wait, wtf is this")

culinko: even if fuck VA is kinda true. it's better if yo udo it, after all it's you that know the background to this mix up and you that has been editing it...

for example *I* wouldn't be able to do it well since I don't know anything about these artists :)

hello anyone good with picard naming pormats?

format even

so basically I want to include the disc number like 03-12 in he tracnumber ##discknumber##-##tracknumber##

my current naming thing is

%album%/$num(%tracknumber%,2) %title% - %artist%

i take it you only want this if there's more than one disc

something like that

that'll give 01 Track Name, 1-01 Track Name, or 10-01 Track Name

or 01-01 rather

yea

1-01 if totaldiscs < 9 otherwise 01-01

<= 9

hm, if I want two digits regardless (as long as there actually is more thna one disc?)

$num(%discnumber%,2)-

uh...

(that is exactly where i was lost whne i tried it myself )
