is there a way to deal with a recording that already exists in the MB databse under a different name? I don;t eally want to readd the track as a seperate entry nor does renaming the track already there seem the right solution.

nygel: A stand-alone recording, or a track on a release?
(there's a second element: if you select a recording and deselect it, the "Update the recording" check box stays put)

Note it, then.

Welp. How bad is it if I just realized that I automatically added the check digit to the UPCs of several releases I added over the last couple days without even thinking about it?

I saw red text and wanted to make it go away :/

hidgw: why didn't they have check digits? that seems rare.
2014-10-25 29832, 2014
hidgw
Yeah, I figured adding the check digit was better.

hidgw: Seriously though, if you still have the releases handy with the barcodes, you can just go through them and fix them if they really don't have the check digits.

But if they really don't have it, well, we shouldn't either.

I'll do that, for the ones I still have. Might be harder to track down the ones I've already returned to the library, but I'll do what I can

warp: probably because they're old releases? '80s, early '90s, mostly

I wonder if there's a borrowing history

Hmm, no borrowing history that I can see. Silly catalog system.

On the plus side, the release that prompted me to start thinking about this has Brent Spiner on it
