CatQuest only added this release as it was linkend on bandcamp after a tweet posted in #metabrainz

If an Audio drama has someone credited as "Music"
2019-06-11 16229, 2019
zarcade_droid
What type of relationship is it?
2019-06-11 16222, 2019
zarcade_droid
"composer", "performer" or "arranger" don't fit it well
2019-06-11 16249, 2019
zarcade_droid
Would "compiler" be okay?
2019-06-11 16216, 2019
yvanzo
If unclear which type of relationship should fit, I would just put it in annotations.
2019-06-11 16201, 2019
zarcade_droid
So you think the relationship I'm looking for doesn't exist?
2019-06-11 16211, 2019
yvanzo
It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with “compiler”.
2019-06-11 16233, 2019
yvanzo
No, I think the credit is unclear.

"This indicates the person who selected the tracks and the sequence for a compilation."
2019-06-11 16257, 2019
zarcade_droid
Well, the soundtrack kind-of is an compilation of tracks .-.
2019-06-11 16213, 2019
yvanzo
If the credited artist was Bach, I would add “composer” relationship without doubt.
2019-06-11 16229, 2019
yvanzo
If the credited artist was Some Orchestra, I would add “performer” relationship without doubt.
2019-06-11 16238, 2019
zarcade_droid
"Nicholas Briggs" :P
2019-06-11 16241, 2019
yvanzo
And so on, but here info seems to be missing.
2019-06-11 16201, 2019
yvanzo
This is not a compilation, right?
2019-06-11 16204, 2019
zarcade_droid
No
2019-06-11 16209, 2019
zarcade_droid
An audio drama
2019-06-11 16224, 2019
yvanzo
So it doesn’t fit the “compiler” description.
2019-06-11 16228, 2019

Wikipedia says the guy is a composer, sound designer etc.

Maybe it's just me who doesn't know the right one and there's a clear relationship :P

It’s better to leave something out, than it is to add something that turns out to later be 100% wrong.
2019-06-11 16231, 2019
yvanzo
It might be its own compositions though, +1 for annotation (until clarification).
2019-06-11 16251, 2019
zarcade_droid
It most certainly isn't 100% wrong to call him a composer
2019-06-11 16203, 2019
yvanzo
Sorry, “It might NOT be”.
2019-06-11 16205, 2019

Sometimes it might be nice to just have a "Thing is related to Thing" without clarifying how in more detail. :p
2019-06-11 16231, 2019

zarcade_droid: But it might be 100% wrong to call him a composer for anything on that audio drama.
2019-06-11 16203, 2019
zarcade_droid
If he has done actual voices then that's a different credit
2019-06-11 16223, 2019
zarcade_droid
so he has 100% done something with the music :D
2019-06-11 16226, 2019
yvanzo
If you get more info from him or any other source later on, sure replace annotation with appropriate relationship then. :)
2019-06-11 16205, 2019

"done something with the music" isn’t really something that can be mapped to relationships on its own.
2019-06-11 16206, 2019

I doubt I want to e-mail him about thousands of releases, asking "what the did you do here exactly?"
2019-06-11 16241, 2019

I had an e‐mail conversation with David Rovics at one point where I was basically just asking a bunch of inane questions. 🙈
2019-06-11 16259, 2019

"Oh, also, on this album, how …"
2019-06-11 16210, 2019
zarcade_droid
I'd understand if it were just one release :/
2019-06-11 16204, 2019
Freso
I mean, if you see that they have this credit used for thousands of releases, maybe it means the same thing across them all, and one question can clarify this data for said thousands of releases.
2019-06-11 16218, 2019
zarcade_droid
It most likely does mean the same thing, that's why I'm trying to find the correct one right now :D
2019-06-11 16238, 2019
Freso
And it doesn’t sound like you can find it without going to the source…
2019-06-11 16204, 2019
Freso
But hey, maybe you can. :) Good luck either way!
2019-06-11 16253, 2019
zarcade_droid
I'll leave it out of the annotations for now because I don't like permanent annotations :P
2019-06-11 16206, 2019
zarcade_droid
I'll ask him and then discuss it again
2019-06-11 16221, 2019
zarcade_droid
and then it can be added as an annotation if that's the consensus

It's tedious even script assisted because it takes so long but I know for sure which release should get which front cover

I wish to create an entry for Daniel Gerrard's _The Streets of Bath_ (guitarist), and there is one Daniel Gerrard already in the system, but how can I verify whether it is a different person coincidentally sharing the name?

2019-06-11 16236, 2019

it had another release or two, but i don't know the albums and it basically just saidh 'various artists'
2019-06-11 16202, 2019

if you are unsure, just create a new artist :)

i figured someone could change the artist somehow if there was a problem later on, right? so i went with the pre-existing Daniel Gerrard

SothoTalKer
changes are always possible
2019-06-11 16258, 2019
sappheiros
great. that's actually another question i had: i didn't make the votes editable: does that mean the only choice is to erase the entire thing? i.e. must changes be votable to enable others to change them later on?
2019-06-11 16210, 2019
sappheiros
*i didn't make the submission (edits?) votable, i mean to say
2019-06-11 16235, 2019
SothoTalKer
that is not the case, votable just means, those edits are not considered "auto-edits", which are applied automatically, but users can vote for/against them.
2019-06-11 16254, 2019
sappheiros
so when would i want to make edits votable?
2019-06-11 16258, 2019
sappheiros
when i'm unsure?
2019-06-11 16215, 2019
sappheiros
i mean: i should use that option only when i'm unsure of the edit?
2019-06-11 16246, 2019
SothoTalKer
you should not make any edits you are unsure about at all ;-)
2019-06-11 16230, 2019
SothoTalKer
you should make edits votable, when you do not want them to be applied automatically, in case the edit type is an "auto-edit"
