I concede, I'm coming around to the "include all the (label-ish) things" approach.

I’m certainly coming around to the idea of not trying to connect a label and a cat no, though some sort of sane way to display/filter them would be nice
“connect catalogue number to release or medium, no more to label”
2014-01-13 01345, 2014
hawke1
Yeah, I voted for that one.
2014-01-13 01310, 2014

I dunno, there is clearly some correlation/connection between labels and cat nos…
2014-01-13 01323, 2014
hawke1
but at the same time there are lots of cases where a release simply has a cat no and some labels.

it's already possible to enter them separately if you don't know which ones belong together
2014-01-13 01311, 2014
jesus2099
i would like to always enter separate.
2014-01-13 01320, 2014
jesus2099
so everyone is happy…
2014-01-13 01345, 2014

except the people who don't want to lose the connection between labels and catnos...

i do enter separate usually… but all labels people want to all laabels, and only one label people want to attach it to a specific label
2014-01-13 01337, 2014
nikki
and always entering them separately wouldn't really solve any of the issues here, which is that people don't agree what should be a release label
2014-01-13 01306, 2014
jesus2099
only-one label people say this is production label, cat# belongs to this and we don’t niclude other labels… all labels people say this catalogue is issued by that big label so i set it to it and this is production label with no catalogue
2014-01-13 01334, 2014
jesus2099
and there are even other different peoples
2014-01-13 01356, 2014
jesus2099
as this is really not interesting discussion, we couldn’t set to a label would end those discussions
2014-01-13 01339, 2014
jesus2099
i mean i can’t go back to my collection every now and then to re-add the deleted labels…
2014-01-13 01308, 2014
jesus2099
and find the catalogue has moved to another one etc.

sorry, i’m pissed off because i bought some crap CD and crap games too, i shouldn’t have buy anything last week

It does sometimes seem like we could use some way to say that a release is in the catalog of some label (based on cat no.) without actually being released under that imprint (due to no logo)
2014-01-13 01321, 2014
CallerNo6
But surely there are releases that have a label but no logo.
2014-01-13 01359, 2014
jesus2099
there is no drawback to set all that we see on release, imo. only goodness.

we could have a PRIMARY checkbox for people who only give their love to one label per release

you'll be adding the compact disc logo as a label then? :P

of course this conversation would be easier if we agreed on what "label" means

CallerNo6: It's something you stick on something (else).

I thought that was a signifier.

Is there a policy regarding adding incomplete releases?
2014-01-13 01311, 2014

none, do your best ! ;)

_flow_: data you enter should be correct, but there is no requirement for it be complete.

(ofcourse, more data is better, obviously :)

_flow_: more generally, an edit that improves the quality and breadth of the database is a good edit, regardless of how complete it is.
