Help test the relationship editor on beta.musicbrainz.org

one thing I’ve noticed, the “Change credits for other relationships” button doesn’t always seem to work. I haven’t tested it thoroughly, but it seems to happen sometimes when you’re adding new relationships, not when you’re editing old ones… I’ve gotten it to happen a couple times while editing this release, if that helps. could have something to do with the collapsible sections too, as I’ve been taking advantage of that~

also, a couple minor things while we’re here, I wonder if the “Credited as” fields (both artist and instrument) could be auto-filled from previous adds on the release? that would be a major improvement in my opinion, and at worst would be an additional backspace if the artist or instrument name is inconsistent across the release.

Edit by @yvanzo: Too big changes to be done any soon but it will certainly come up again in the future.

I am also noticing that entering an edit takes a good bit longer with the new relationship editor… I wonder if this is an easy fix or not? it’s especially apparent when making changes to several tracks on one release. for example, the release (linked above) which I’ve been testing the relationship editor with. I’ve been doing like, 10-15 tracks at a time, and it takes a good minute or so to save my edits…
