        And if you have recordings of a performance at a concert or a similar event, you can create the Event as an entity and link the recording to that.

        But you don't seem to be doing crazy stuff just yet, so just keep it in mind when you come across something you're not sure how to handle.

        I can fix it later right? after edit approved? or should delete and start over (think I read the latter is preferred)

        why not generate that from the (contained) release titles?
      • 2015-02-09 04000, 2015

      • reosarevok
        Because that requires having an actual release with that title, I imagine :)
      • 2015-02-09 04021, 2015

      • reosarevok
        I mean, I don't think any release is actually called "The White Album"
      • 2015-02-09 04030, 2015

      • reosarevok
        (well, any release in the The Beatles RG :p)

        oh, right
      • 2015-02-09 04044, 2015

      • 2015-02-09 04058, 2015

      • CallerNo6
        (and transl*tions)
      • 2015-02-09 04019, 2015

      • reosarevok
        For those, it might still make sense to have an alias for the title so that people can find it, even if you don't care for the translit and won't waste time adding the whole pseudo
      • 2015-02-09 04042, 2015

      • reosarevok
        But I do agree ideally it would also look at release titles when searching in any case

        I dunno. I think <100 edits is still "new".

        More relevant might be that you can’t filter for limited users, either.

        heh, true

        But you can see it in the edit search anyway

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, but the point is to explicitly look for all newbie edits to find people who need help

      • reosarevok
        Not to happen to find some while doing something else :)

        Searching for limited users would make sense too, unsure if it would be enough but it'd be a start :)

      • hawke
        huh, I guess I'd have assumed that 'limited user' was an editor flag

        What’s “untrusted” mean?
      • 2015-02-09 04044, 2015

      • CallerNo6
        of course not. it's a value judgement, like "bad person"
      • 2015-02-09 04033, 2015

      • reosarevok
        "untrusted" is "we decided that all edits by this person will be non-autoedits"

      • reosarevok
        I don't think we've ever used it

      • hawke
        ah

        Wasn't something like it used for Likedis Auto?

        I think it was just the e-mail address being removed.

        Or unvalidated.
