That feeling when you have added a big part of (the prominent at least) artists of a specific music scene and now adding songs is done more smoothly as you dont have to waste time adding new artists:)

I'm looking at this release: https://musicbrainz.org/release/7a5ee4b9-c34d-4... where the bonus disc has tracks mixed up where the 2nd and 3rd should be swapped regarding lengths. But the release has an discid attached, so I can't change that. How should I tackle this?

is there a proper / preferred release country to use for discogs's equivalent "Australasia"?

Do you know what they mean with that? :)

I assume it usually means AU + NZ, but

aerozol might know better

I don't know myself, and honestly I thought it was really just a discogs database convention, but now here I am looking directly at a release with "Australasia" clearly printed on it......

Huh. I really dunno why they couldn't be a more specific, but it's a "real" subregion I guess

I think it's the equivalent of something like "Benelux" which is also printed in some European releases

(or, well, "Europe")

There's an area request (https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/AREQ-2367) - I just haven't added any of these except the grandfathered-in "Europe" fo rnow

AREQ-2367: Australasia

I dunno if those releases would really include PNG or just AU-NZ

It's not a very strictly defined place

Ah man, that's too bad…

That seems cheap for Elsevier :D
