Looks like I am fighting an uphill battle on this one but I thought I would also poke you on this, aerozol[m]. Not having a set of guidelines for how to treat game rips strikes again.

Hi,
I got an error message during the load of the new (20240424-001726) DB dump:
psql:ERROR: index row size 2720 exceeds btree version 4 maximum 2704 for index "recording_idx_name"
DETAIL: Index row references tuple (405902,4) in relation "recording".
HINT: Values larger than 1/3 of a buffer page cannot be indexed.
I'm using 8k block size in postgre. Is that fine?

Hello! Question about metadata. I have a promo vid where the attributed artist is not clear. Context, it's a short animated music video for Pokemon on YouTube I was going to add as a standalone recording. Wasn't sure if the company / franchise should be the artist, if the writer should, the company behind said writer, or something else. Thanks.
(Also, is this the best place to ask innane metadata questions? I run into a lot of dumb questions when I add stuff but don't want to add a new topic on the fourm all the time lol)

There is the [unknown] artist if you really cannot figure out the proper credit but that is more of a last resort thing.
It looks like there is a credit for vocals. Since this video is Japanese, you will probably have to try and see if the artist already exists in MusicBrainz (using the Japanese spelling).
It might be good to defer to someone who is experienced with adding Japanese releases but I do not know of any. Hopefully someone else idling here can jump in.
and here is definitely the place for innane (or otherwise) editing questions! this is what that's for!

There is credit for vocals; That's how I found the vid in the first place lol. Didn't know if in this case if Nanahira (the vocalist) would be the 'artist' though.

Completely unrelated question; I have a release someone uploaded but created new recordings for all the tracks. It is not, however, identical to other releases in the group (it has one additional track the other's don't). Should I individually merge the redundant recordings with their identical siblings from https://musicbrainz.org/recording/* or is there a better way to do that?
Got a complaint for trying to abandon the recordings as I wasn't aware of the merge function, so thought I should ask about it as this particular release has been a headache.
<02UltimateRiff> actually, looking at that artist page, I found there's at least two other songs called Pokédance out there, as shown (but not played, unfortunately) in this video (with timestamp): https://youtu.be/SlgjCx7Rcz0?si=I7yFXzMIwbY6MIi...

@UltimateRiff At least looking at the credited individuals on the video you linked, I would say it's safe to say their separate things. Missed my searching though, probably because I was only looking for works. Oops.
(Also, how in the world did you find that video so fast?)
I'll probably just add the artist as 'Pokémon' and keep my edit open for voting. Thank you.

<02UltimateRiff> I found the MusicBrainz release on the Pokémon artist overview, found the Italian remix on Discogs through that release, and searched on YouTube hoping to find a recording (but didn't find anything but the new Pokédance and that video)
<02UltimateRiff> also, I think the new one was made by the Asian or Japanese branch of The Pokémon Company, whereas the others look like they're from Europe (and much earlier)
<02UltimateRiff> speaking of music videos... reosarevok, any thoughts on the music video release guidelines discussion in the forums? are we still waiting on more input, or is it time to move to the next step? https://community.metabrainz.org/t/style-2428-s...
