Hello, I'm about to install Pickard to finetune my tags. Is it possible to have Artist - Instrument tags?Is it possible to write these tags only and in batch, since most of the tagging is ok and that's the only part I need.

elr1c: yes, picard can get the instruments. you'll need to enable track and release relationships in Options > Metadata
for writing only some tags (performer in this case) you'd need to either unset the tags you don't want written or set tags to the ignore list in options > tags (which will still write them if not in the files, but not overwrite existing values).
have a look at the forums, there are several threads about that with more details.
also my usual recommendation: don't disable writing the musicbrainz_recordingid and musicbrainz_albumid tag.
swizard: you should probably mark the member relationships as "ended" (it seems Simon Detel already is)
We do not delete past data completely since it's still relevant to the encyclopedia
Normally for this kind of "group to solo" cases we think of them as a several-members group turned into a one-person group, so the easiest option would be to just leave the current lone member as a member
Alternatively, I guess it *could* be changed to a Person artist, with the membership relationship also marked as ended, and a new "performs as" relationship for the one person left?
That seems messier tho

many thanks for your quick reply and suggestions.
Hopefully I've already marked the other member Steffen Wick as ended?

You did not, you're entering removal edits, which is not the same :)

However, every time I try to switch the type selection box from group to person it stills reads as group after submitting this change
