Unfortunately, moving reviews screws up the ratings calculations. M@x will need to do some development work to resolve this. Meanwhile, the earlier we catch such situations, the easier it is to resolve them.

Well, nuts. You guys can't move reviews any longer? That's a bummer. I mean, I can move albums myself, but it was the currently existing reviews I was having trouble with. I guess all that's left is PMing the folks who wrote reviews and asking them to take their own time to consolidate so that we can clean up the page.

We used to be able to do that, but the field is read only now.
(I'll give it a try anyway)

^ hey Dean, I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure I've moved reviews by going on the admins page and typing in the review number under edit review and when the review comes up you change the album ID at the top of the page. We had two entries for Soft Machine Legacy and I'm pretty sure I moved one review and deleted one of the entries. At least that's how I remember it.

We can't delete albums that have reviews attached without losing the reviews. We do not have the facility to move the reviews.
This problem is further complicated where two solo artists colaborate and the album gets added twice - then decide to create a band entry for the duo but can't because that would add the album a third time, (see Fripp & Sylvian)

Um, what about to ask Mike ? I myself don't know where to put them, but remember, they were considered as USA group for certain amount of time, before somebody changed it recently, so you may be right. Errors happen, but how to recognize error, or how to support your claims, that's the question. More people needed. |

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Bump on account of no moderator action or further discussion. Thoughts?

I agree , it could all be put under the ome album.
Not sure about the Roine Stolte mix though. Edited by Snow Dog - September 15 2009 at 16:58 |

http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=1343 - This album does not belong, as it is just a limited edition of the album right next to it.
Also, their Roine Stolt Mixes version of SMPT:e makes me a little unsure as well. I understand that it is a separate entity from the regular SMPT:e, however, does it necessarily belong in studio albums? It probably fits best in the category it's in, but I figured I'd raise it as a point. Any thoughts? |
