Quite some time ago two different recordings were merged into one in 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)”.
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’m having some second thoughts about https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91636626. If you go to the label’s website, 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
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.
Hello, @whyisntthishere . Thank you for helping to improve MusicBrainz.
These are three instances of the same confusion.
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. To change the track title, use the Edit tab on the Release page.
Edits 91754996 and 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, Track, and 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!

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! https://musicbrainz.org/edit/91916843
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.
This edit merges three releases that I’m pretty confident were erroneously added as separate releases instead of a 3-disc box set. You can see my reasoning in the edit notes. There is more clean-up to do, and I’m hoping some folks can vote or approve (or point out my error) this edit so I can continue.
