I added [MANEDBENTO!](https://musicbrainz.org/artist/cd75f687-b75d-4438-9f11-28d9dc1fe40c)’s both [main](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/128699322) and [art](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/128699324) Instagram accounts on MusicBrainz as I added BRING THE NOISE EP to the MusicBrainz database last month, but Last.fm pointed to the latter, hence the [(now rejected) removal edit](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/128822390). Should I only point to an artist’s main profile even though they might have other/alternative accounts?

I might ask this at their community forums instead if this is something I couldn’t fix on my own, since they usually pull metadata from the MB database dumps by default (with some delays)

I add multiple links if they exist. I don’t think we should delete valid data because a downstream reuser isn’t set up to handle it.

It _would_ be nice to be able to mark a primary link per website though for cases like this.

this is an issue I’d thought about in regards to ListenBrainz a while back, I went ahead and created a ticket for a potential solution for the problem

I also typically add all URLs for an artist, and also would not remove valid data just because someone isn’t handling it properly. don’t [tag for the renderer](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer), after all~ 😉
