What iz so bad about it

KassOtsimine: well just on beta for now, but :)

PopperBruda: all sorts of privacy issues

i'm on beta!

if an artist's official homepage no longer works should I remove it or set it as ended?

atj: ended

OK thanks.

Especially if available on the IA

adding the credited as name to the sidebar links is quite useful in situations like this https://musicbrainz.org/artist/926f657d-c0be-4c...

I think I let out an audible groan when I saw that

atj: ouch.

pretty much fixed now, just need to wait for a merge to complete!

oohh i like that

Any German speakers here? Is "Jörg Müller" the same as "Joerg Mueller"?

s/the same as/equivalent to/

I mean probably?

ö is ø is oe usually

and this i surmise that ü is ue as the same

thanks, makes sense

s/this/thus

i got my own thing:

should "subset" of group be seprate groups?

eg https://www.discogs.com/artist/5367866

my first impuls is "no"

eg for https://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/86527998 https://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/86527999

i suspect that 'subset' is either a thing made up by a discogs editor, or it's calqued directly from marrketing material

I don't know what subset means in this sense

ev: Japanese pop artists often have a large group and then group members form subgroups, as far as I've understood

interesting. but discogs seem to suggest here they just put on a new costume to be 'moody'

ROpdebee: this new patch... directly uploads from atisket without the other script, or something?

re "putting on different costumes" : https://www.discogs.com/artist/670295-X-Cops

GWAR used to tour with X-Cops opening for them. X-Cops was the same guys in different costumes.

Yeah. If the music is different, I'd say different artist

If it's just a visual change, then maybe the same with a credit
