Two Frank Zappa releases have been added to his studio albums, yet they are already here under compilations (with ratings and reviews).

^ And you guessed well ...DONE !

(I had already updated before the one to kill so it was just a matter of copy/paste to the surviving one)

EDIT: And duplication deleted (Admins are really super-fast, these days Big smile )

^ This one http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=17256 should stay, because it has reviews.
But its date, cover art etc should be changed (according to discogs, the album released in 2002, not in 2001: https://www.discogs.com/Hypnos-69-Timeline-Traveller/master/519914).

This one http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=17198 (unreviewed) must die.

Usually I do the following:
1. Correct the survivor page by adding the maximal amount of information (times, original artwork, releases etc).
2. After that ask admins to delete duplicated entry.

I guess you'd like to do this. Smile

It's a duplication of this one (the one to retain)

http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=17198

Only difference being the cover art

PLEASE DELETE (want me to report Admin? Please confirm you agree)

^ Nice to read this.

I've edited your SAGA additions, you can use this one: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=52908 as an example of correctly formatted album info.

Thanks for the reply.

I've been adding Saga-releases today (singles and compilations and even a new live-album) and for some reason a lot of these entries are added twice.
I don't know what I did wrong.

^ Sorry, I've missed this point.
If so let's leave US edition in Compilations. It will be a kind of "Meet the Moodies".

Like these two Wink (..."In fact they share a total of 8 tracks, and each has its own additional 4 different tracks."...)

Maybe ask XOver team's opinion.

^ I think the only helpful corrections would be to point out that "Go Now" is a US version of "The Magnificent Moodies" and add some reissues info to both albums.

This one (filed as compilation)

http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=5503

Is referenced all around as the American version of this one (filed as studio)

http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=5504

In fact they share a total of 8 tracks, and each has its own additional 4 different tracks.

Check here

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Magnificent_Moodies
https://www.discogs.com/The-Moody-Blues-Go-Now-Moody-Blues-1/master/697476

It's not a full duplication, alright, but even so considered it couldn't be deleted on account of reviews.

Do you think any correction is needed here ?

^ José, in case of Banco I see no contradiction - in 1991 they completely re-recorded their debut album (and, by the way, "Darwin!" too). These re-recorded versions are not mixes of old and new performances so they are in Studio albums.
1991 versions of "BMS" and "Darwin!" were released separately while 2CD set Da qui messere si domina la valle containing both records is in Compilations. Smile 

Some other examples of such "strange" studio albums in PA database:

^ OK, don't want to be a boring ass but from the top of my head I remember a similar situation with Banco that got resolved differently

http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=32884

Only raise the question for the sake of consistency (I'm a slow learner, I know, bear with me Eugene)

^ Some Google search:

"In February 2008, it was announced on Big Big Train's BlogSpot that English Boy Wonders was going to be re-recorded and partially re-mixed" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Boy_Wonders)

"This is the 2008 'director's-cut' re-issue of English Boy Wonders. The album was originally released in 1997 in an incomplete state as the band ran out of money to finish the recordings. For the 2008 re-issue, the album was properly completed, much of the music was re-recorded and the CD was entirely remixed from the master tapes." (https://bigbigtrain.bandcamp.com/album/english-boy-wonders-2008-re-issue).

Looks like 2008 remake is OK in Compilations. It's quite different record. I think no need to combine these 2 entries in one.

Track list of 2008 edition on original album page is not necessary in my opinion, I propose to delete it.
I would only mention in "Releases info" that in 2008 the album was remixed, partly re-recorded and issued on CD.
