        They say city (on the pages themselves) until Zvolen, but that says town
      • (and the next two too)
      • So maybe break it there?
      • Also grr Trnava
      • reosarevok was so bored in there :D
      • culinko
        you were in Trnava?
      • reosarevok
        Yeah
      • My ex was visiting a friend
      • So I got to see the beautiful town of Trnava
      • (which it is, don't get me wrong)
      • And then to see it again
      • And again
      • And again
      • Until she finally finished, 5 hours later :p
      • culinko
        hah :P
      • i've never been in Trnava, though it's like around the corner :D
      • reosarevok
        It was fun for the first hour and a half because there was some kind of end of school year party
      • Or start of school year party
      • Or I don't remember, something like that
      • Anyway all the students were on the streets being silly
      • Dunno, we were doing Bratislava to Zilina
      • noobie joined the channel
      • She just had this person to see in the way :)
      • noobie
        hi
      • reosarevok
        hi!
      • noobie
        ;)
      • reosarevok
        ListMyCDs, http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksH... doesn't have many pages though :(
      • snartal
        hmmm, there is a good point for naming the entry "city, state"... since MB just gives you "city, country" on a search.
      • reosarevok
        Yeah, that's something we should improve on at some point
      • snartal
        Though, even though this is maybe a MB issue.... people are obviously naming them like that in wikidata for a reason.
      • reosarevok
        Not exactly
      • That's a wikipedia issue
      • ListMyCDs
        reosarevok: most of the ones I have added don't have "municipality of Finland" but just "municipality" as type
      • reosarevok
        That's their disambiguation
      • It's not really necessary on wikidata, but it was auto-added like that
      • nikki: can we work with "municipality" + "country: finland"?
      • snartal
        reosarevok: Not exactly what?
      • reosarevok
        snartal: not exactly naming them like that in wikidata for a reason I meant :)
      • ListMyCDs
        municipality can have city status, so same place could be instance of both of them (bot adding duplicates?)
      • in Finland all cities are also municipalities
      • reosarevok
        Do they have a separate wikidata page for each?
      • (one as city and one as municipality)
      • ListMyCDs
        nope, just the same page
      • reosarevok
        Then I think it won't add dupes, because it checks if the URL is in MB
      • ListMyCDs
        they are same thing, some municipalities just have decided to use "city" on their name
      • reosarevok
        (might be that some are in as city and some as municipality, though)
      • (but that seems minor and you could always tell us to fix some :) )
      • culinko
        reosarevok: hmm, some cities are linked with "is in the administrative unit" to regions, some to districts. which one is correct?
      • reosarevok
        heh
      • Both? Ideally the lowest one I guess
      • (smallest)
      • culinko
        so district then
      • snartal
        huh.... instance of..... type of admistrative division.... you can put in the same stuff.
      • simukis_
        kepstin-work: kepstin-laptop: how should one know which one of you should one address?
      • culinko
        hmm, interesting. Kosice and Bratislava are linked to regions, because the city is splitted into multiple districts
      • reosarevok
        snartal: you can - although that depends. I mean, often, the type of administrative division for a city isn't just "city", but stuff like "municipality" or "free city", or some other official name

      • nikki
        reosarevok: I don't know. right now it only knows how to look for types. also yes, 3 hours
      • noobie
        well,any other drink will do it too
      • :D
      • yindesu
        If I split a fake release into 2 Mediums, can an auto-editor approve it instantly?
      • It needs to be merged.

      • noobie
        Rock'n'Roll Sotto le Bombe -- caps?
      • anyone speaking italian?
      • noobie goes for Rock'n'Roll sotto le Bombe
      • culinko
        reosarevok: is it enough if the city is linked to the district, and the region is linked to the district? or do i need to also link them the other way around?
      • noobie
        reosarevok (or any other autoeditor) could you pls: http://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/23493504 http://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/23493504 :)

        noobie: I'd say all lowercase
      • )
      • culinko: region linked to the district how?
      • If the district is linked as part of the region, sure
      • culinko
        yeah
      • reosarevok
        ("in the division" blah blah)
      • culinko
        i am linking now districts as "is in the administrative unit" to regions too, so :P
      • culinko_ joined the channel
      • reosarevok: hmm, i am seeing stuff like "type of administrative division" "obec", which equals to town, would this be enough or do i need to add "instance of" "town" anyway?
      • reosarevok
        ask nikki :p
      • culinko
        well, i think the bot should start importing in less then 15 minutes, so i think we will see that :D
      • reosarevok
        No, I mean, right now it won't be enough :p
      • But if you ask her, maybe she can add that to the bot
      • culinko
        well, found 2 of them so far
      • and linked like 20 cities/towns
      • hopefully something will show up in db:)
      • heh 2 cities imported
      • reosarevok
        The ones marked as such and not just obec? :)
      • culinko
        well it's still importing more
      • there were 4 slovak cities in the db, now there are 20:) it seems like the one without the "town/city" is not being imported, but the bot is still importing some finish ones:)
      • ok so it didn't go through:)
      • nikki
        it doesn't know about obec, no
      • you could give me a link :P
      • culinko
      • praest76
      • It's been released as DLC on Steam
      • Since it's been added to Musicbrai8nz it's had another track added. Should I just add the track to the existing release or create a new release (the later seems stupid to me, but I thought I'd ask)
      • ?

      • ianweller
        praest76: oh hey, you're back.
      • praest76: i've seen "updated" releases go both ways. there's a TF2 soundtrack somewhere on musicbrainz that just has tracks added to it
      • i don't think there's a rule for it
      • because it's not really a separate "release"
      • and, since it's steam DLC, i presume it pushes out the new track to everyone who's downloaded it anyway
      • praest76
        Yea, I see it as an ongoing production. I think I may just add the new tracks as they come out unless there is a actual new "version" specified by the artists.
      • culinko
        area_bot should be busy for a while, i linked like ~80 towns on wikidata :P
      • praest76
        Sorry, had to restart my pi to adjust the memory split.
      • reosarevok
        I'd say new release, at a different point in time - but those ever-growing releases are horrible for our model anyway :(
      • praest76
        Yet they will become more common as time goes on.
      • I mean, this game is still in dvelopment, they add a new song every time a new one is added ingame... do we create a new release every time? It's effectively the same release. People who bought the original 9 track album can download the additional tracks.

        night y'all
