Label merger. Newly aliased as ‘WeDidIt Records’ into older, shorter ‘WeDidIt’. It’s the very same label, which can be confirmed just by checking their SoundCloud.

Discogs has it mistakenly duplicated as well:

Oh man, I really stuffed this one up. Votes please so I can fix the tracklist!

I’ve just edited the release date from twenty years ago, where available source data is scarce. I’m fairly certain though that we should settle on one date for Björk’s All Is Full of Love double CD (242TP7CD / 242TP7CDL).

I moved the “CD 1” from May 31st to June 7th since I found more evidence pointing towards the latter.

I can’t agree to CSG having such a wide context; that way, most Western music can be found as “having a score” and thus being “classical”.

Roy Orbison re-recorded a bunch of his hits in the 1980s. These have gotten mixed in with the original 1960s versions and I’m trying to untangle them. I’d like to speed these new recordings along:

Merging duplicated recordings:

Would really love to see this passed soon. It’s a fairly significant band (200K+ overall listeners on Last.fm, 100K+ monthly on Spotify) that has just released their first solo album since 2013.

Note that we cannot speedup a merge edit, whatever the amount of Yes votes.
We can only slow it down by casting a No vote at the last minute. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Ha, that explains a lot :smiley: And I was wondering sometimes why was there a lag for some merge edits when they had already been unanimously upvoted.

Actually, you can speed up a merge edit, but there’s a 24-hour waiting period between the edit garnering 3 or more Yes votes and when it is applied.

Could use some votes here so I can follow up and fix the track artists. I added it in a hurry earlier this week when I was trying to track down a related release, and since it’s been more than 24 hours the fix isn’t automatic anymore.

I’d like some assistance with fixing a capitalization.

Really dont know why this is a issue considering i know and have a friendship with the artist and believe I know which link she prefer be show for her main site as im sure she would like her entire body of work shown

you can clearly see the “music site” was actually just built to promote her solo album and does not show case her past work

Hello everybody. I have a little disagreement with a negative vote in one of my edits - I think I’m right and I need your help and support. Either a confirmation of my edit or a short explanation why I’m wrong. Thank you very much :slight_smile:

Another noobie who is not reading the rules. It may need a French speaker to get the message across. This person seems to be “filling in gaps” with images. I spotted them in Pixies Surfa Rosa uploading the same bland image to three LPs which is clearly didn’t match. Then noticed a few other cases in their edit history.

If an AE is bored on the board - can they OK this one for me? https://musicbrainz.org/edit/64188556

This edit is splitting a 2CD release into 2CDs like it should be. Just the act of doing that leaves tracks stuck on CD1 for seven days.

This is being done as this album is in the database three times - once as a single big CD, once as a CD1, and again as a CD2. I am doing the edits to get this merged back into the correct 2CD release that it actually was.

Thanks @Fabe56 :+1:

May need some help with an edit: https://musicbrainz.org/edit/64367032

There are two associated edits as well:

There’s a disagreement on the first edit mentioned, and a negative vote. I’ve explained my reasoning in the notes I believe, and already suggested there that it needs others to give an opinion. That may not happen though without asking, and the entire edit will fail. That would lead to the rather ridiculous situation where one medium of a release is updated (the second link), and the other isn’t.

I’m unsure where else to mention something like this.

By chance, I happened to note a new release being added with a new release group when it should have been added into an existing release group. I then noted two recent instances of the same by the same editor. All of these edits were automatically applied. I’ve already added edits to merge the release groups:

https://musicbrainz.org/edit/64385461
https://musicbrainz.org/edit/64385523
https://musicbrainz.org/edit/64385928

However, I couldn’t check every edit. The concern is also that this could continue with new release groups being created instead of releases being added to existing ones.

Yes, this editor appears to add new release groups with no regard for existing ones. Including both of these.

Update: I went through about the first page and added the obvious merges (probably half or more of the release groups). Probably need to review the releases for merging at some point, too. And there are other obviously bogus edits like this CD release with a date of 1964. I don’t have time to sort it out right now, but if someone else doesn’t beat me to it I will eventually.

Good luck @psychoadept - there are far too many people who don’t read the rules, and seem to have no idea how to access the edit notes. Can anyone tell if this person is using the website or maybe submitting via a third party tool?

Hang on - that editor has been a member since 2011! And it looks like they have always acted in that manner!
