What is the best way for a novice user to import this item from Discogs into MusicBrainz ?

frozen (@_discord_263421079131783169:chatbrainz.org) either you do it manually (which is probably the quickest option for a two-track release), or you setup and install the Discogs importer userscript
note that if you use an importer userscript/tool, you still need to adapt the metadata to the conventions that Musicbrainz expects. E.g. Discogs has a really strange capitalization rule for titles that Musicbrainz does not follow

Thanks, I was unable to get the userscript to work, I tried this a week ago. I got tampermonkey installed and the script installed into it with no issues. Everything is enabled and turned on. Yet the button in the screenshot to import to MB never appears anywhere

Am I supposed to be adding a "release" ? The page doesn't render

Hi there, I have my browser open now and I am logged in on both MusicBrainz and Discogs with a proper account on both

Where would I go from here, now to import the release mentioned above?

if you dont see the buttons then you may need to enable dev mode in the extensions settings of your browser

frozen (@_discord_263421079131783169:chatbrainz.org) I'm not very familiar with the Discogs script in particular so I can't say exactly

There's nothing there unfortunately

but e.g. the Bandcamp script inserts a button below the title on a release page

if you click on the tampermonkey extension symbol at the top while on a discogs release page, does it list the userscript?

Wow

That was it, I never noticed before that it even though it says ENABLED you have to click it in order for a green checkmark to appear

Idea: Enable MusicBrainz to sort by label number, which can be helpful in cross referencing labels and their releases
