Icon Series

Hi all

Can some please help me with this Icon Series. It has got two discogs urls and I cant figure out to wich discgoslink it should be linked?

https://www.discogs.com/release/9932453-Various-70s-FM-Rock-Anthems See this release.

The same for this series: https://www.discogs.com/release/1780056-Various-70s-Gold?redirected=true

The same for this series and this one even has 3 discogs links: https://www.discogs.com/release/5156578-Various-The-Best-Of-Hard-Rock?redirected=true

I hope you understand what I mean.

Whats the problem there?

One has 158 releases the other one 2. The small one should obviously be merged into larger one.

It’s explained in the release series comment:

use this for reissues whose originals were not part of the main series

(I would remove that main word from it, I don’t understand it)

In doubt, I would use this (smaller) release series. Because maybe the same tracklist exists outside of the ICON series.

If it’s not your case, if this tracklist was created for ICON and you think it will never exist outside ICON, use the (big) release group series.

Remember to have a look at series types.
Usually, for compilations kind of series, release series are better.
But I don’t know ICON.

I would change the comment to:

reissues whose originals were not part of the series


Jesus and Maj: Sorry, but I don’t understand any of this. It’s so confusing. My English isn’t good enough for this. That’s why I asked which link I should remove.

Simply put: None. :sweat_smile:
