Could I get someone to approve these two edits to allow a merge? [Edit #91053372 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91053372) and [Edit #91053371 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91053371)

I accidentally entered 1987 as the end of The Gallery in Chertsey.
→ [Edit #91092822 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91092822)
As I made some edits to unravel the relationships, it would be good to have this edit approved quickly. Both places ([Gallery Studio](https://musicbrainz.org/place/b20800e8-0aed-4d63-8134-d12216b12dd7) and [Gallery Studios](https://musicbrainz.org/place/17927693-afe0-4833-a34f-8dfcfc24d2d5)) are now rightfully associated to the same Discogs label (merged).

Quite some time ago two different recordings were merged into one in [Edit #26358636 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/26358636). They are the album version of Roxette’s “I Was So Lucky” and an alternate mix named “I Was So Lucky (The Golden Blow)”.
I have some edits open to start fixing this:
1. [Edit #91420315 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91420315) renames the recording to not include the ETI of the alternate mix
2. [Edit #91420316 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91420316) removes the ISRC of the alternate mix
3. [Edit #91420350 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91420350) creates a new recording for the alternate mix
If I can get these approved, I can link the new recording to the other tracks that need updating.

Next time you can be autonomous by creating the new recording from the Recordings tab’s recording search pop-up.
So you can directly assign the ISRC and edit the other mediums.

this artist is, in my opinion, not a group. i’d like opinions on the open edits because i’m trying to remove it, while someone else is trying to do the opposite

i’d like as many people to vote on this as possible because it sets a precedent for a lot of releases 🙂

> This release includes two discs each named “clear” and “CoLoR” respectively. The problem is, it is split into two different albums on digital stores with their own separate releases (like on [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/artist/6BzlN4V17m7ogeItP4CNN5) and [iTunes](https://itunes.apple.com/jp/artist/id1438344769)). My question is, should the digital release be in the same RG as the physical release or should I make a different RG for the physical and the two digital releases?

I’m having some second thoughts about [Edit #91636626 - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91636626). If you go to [the label’s website](https://unitrecords.com/), you’ll see how they present the label name (it’s shown the same way on streaming services, which led me to add the source label).
Should I keep them separate and linked them with “renamed into/from” or go through with the merge?

I’m trying to merge a promotion-status release for which there is currently no reason to believe it should be separated from the official-status release:
[https://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/91903672](https://beta.musicbrainz.org/edit/91903672)

@sammyrayy is going through labels and artists set to [worldwide], and changing them to a single country or removing the area.

(more or less, my search-fu isn’t that great)
Most of these are international collaborations or netlabels.
Personally I disagree with this approach, I think [worldwide] is perfectly acceptable for a international or online based collaboration or entity. We should find consensus and then update the guidelines either way, before proceeding with mass editing. Then we can edit with confidence, .
The style lead @reosarevok voted down some of the very first edits, but I’m not sure that’s been taken on board tbh.

I have blanket voted no on the above edits, which isn’t ideal, but I don’t have time to go through everything. More input would be great.

Hello, @whyisntthishere . Thank you for helping to improve MusicBrainz.
These are three instances of the same confusion.
Edit [91754984](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91754984) is a change to the title of a Recording. The change was applied. However, this change to the Recording does not change the title of track 1 of the [Release, _Forgive Me Father Soundtrack_](https://musicbrainz.org/release/825d2358-710b-4ac8-9872-41b918e592c2). To change the track title, use the Edit tab on the Release page.
Edits [91754996](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91754996) and [91754998](https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91754998) are the same story, but about tracks 8 and 12 of the same Release. One edit to the Release would let you correct all three Track Titles.
This might be a good opportunity to read the documentation explaining the concepts of [Release](https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Release/), [Track](https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Track/), and [Recording](https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Recording/).
Also, you did the right thing by asking about the confusing results of these edits. However, this “Voting/Auto-editor Request Thread” is not quite the right place to ask. This is the place to get attention for edits which are still open or need votes. Starting a new Topic in the general MusicBrainz forum would be more appropriate for a question about, “Why didn’t these MusicBrainz edits do what I expected?”
I look forward to many further contributions from you. Thank you!
—Jim DeLaHunt

this artist was born in the united states, but travels the world performing. currently the area is worldwide, but i’d like it to be united states because the artist is american. i respect other’s opinions on the situation but i’d like more people to vote!

Hello,
Could you validate from oldest to newest: [Open Edits for อรอุมา สิงห์ศิริ - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/artist/a47ecdbc-6169-43c2-863d-834c8030dc7c/open_edits)
To explain while I was merging some tracks I realized most of the releases were wrong as based on the Bandcamp reissue which actually have different trackorder than their vinyl reissues.
Requesting validation from auto editors to be able to recheck directly all the changes to avoid any operational error.
