I worry about what would happen if it was a particularly messy RG with a bunch of different named albums, and the associated single/EP only appears on a few of them...

The Ā was easy enough, but anyone know how to get an overring above a 〜 wavedash like this?

<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNPY_XSrTGk> One might not consider SOUND HOLIC to be "indie" these days, per se, since that gives kind of a small-time image, but, back when this came out? Heh. World was a different place.

<silver_skree[m]> "The Ā was easy enough, but..." <- Ā〜̊YA is my guess for the closest way of doing it. Most fonts don't work with that, though. Sawarabi Gothic or LXGW WenKai are a couple that show it correctly.

They center the ring perfectly, though, so if it's important that it's off-center like in that screenshot I don't know.

Hey, I'm creating an album for the first time and I'm not sure if I should add the secondary type compilation. Almost all of the tracks are also singles, but a couple (out of 9) don't seem to have been released separately, how should I proceed?

Hi. That probably does not need the Compilation flag, otherwise basically every album would get it because of how common single pre-releases are
2025-11-06 31003, 2025
elomatreb[m]
Compilation is primarily intended for things like "greatest hits" albums though
2025-11-06 31048, 2025
theredcyclops[m]
got it, then I think no secondary types apply, thanks! Mind if I send the release here after I'm finished to confirm I haven't messed anything up?

If a relationship's link for a release leads to a dead web page, should the link/relatinoship be removed, or marked as "ended" for historical purposes?

afrocat_[m]
marked as ended for sure

sometimes you can still see an old version in the wayback machine

Roger. And for end date, just use the date where it was first noticed (i.e., today's date?) Or would using Waybak Machine for more accuracy be better?

theredcyclops: whichever you want but just the specific one is fine, the genres are linked together in the database and some music taggers have options to convert genre tags from the specific subgenre to the general genre if they want that

and to answer your earlier question we don't mind if you share the release to confirm
FLORA looks good to me :) but when you edited track 4 (was that a typo?) you've only edited the track name and not the recording name
2025-11-06 31059, 2025
RandomMushroom12
for example, a song (recording) has been released in multiple countries and different releases have translated names for the song (track, linked to the recording) if that makes sense?
2025-11-06 31033, 2025
RandomMushroom12
if you click to edit the release again, and go to the recording tab, there's a checkbox called "Update the recording title to match the track title. "
