According to the official Osanna's website, Palepoli was released after Milano Calibro 9!

I know there's nothing much to do and that wouldn't correct to delete all the reviews, but it seems to me errors like these are very frequent! What could we do to avoid them?

That's a very good question. I think, from now on, we need to be very careful (check the dates) when adding two albums from the same year...

Hi Andrea

You are right! This mistake is quite common but unfortunately we cannot do much about it in our versiuon of the site.

The groups and albums are sorted by fields  and once albums have been introduced the fields of the dates is chronological downwards (descending sorting order) but once albums have the same release year, you must also sort them by eitheir an ascending or descending sorting order which in this case is alphabetical A-Z or Z-A this is the only option. This is causing many imprecisions such as the one you point out.

But I must say the strange thing here is that Milan comes alphabetically before Palepoli so there must be a glitch there.

I remember suggesting once to use to Z-A sorting order because most of the cases I encountered the earlier album had a alphabetical order farther than the latter release. But this was only a suggestion and I never heard of it since!

prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
