There are only 3 reviews and only 10 ratings attached to Limited Edition. What averege calculations? The nice and proper look of band page is more important :)) With such number of ratings, anyway.
There are a low rate for bonus disk in 2 reviews, and 1 review (5 stars) is more about original CD.

Well... What's the big deal to move it?

In some instances, those reviewers are no longer around.

The problem should only exist for the handful of albums which were added in this way before the rules on limited editions was implemented, so we can probably live with the situation, can't we?

Ha! iwas going to ask you to move your review of the Transatlantis special edition...can you please.

Problem is...not everyone answered my request previously. And some reviewers are possibly gone now.

The simple solution is to allow Admin to move reviews. Can't see why thats so hard.

Yep, Transatlantic is a page I've pushed several times to have cleaned up a bit. It's a very resistant setup, though! Can't seem to get things to budge. Congratulations on getting the Roine Stolt Mixes liberated, though.

I will try again to ask ppl to move their reviews.

They doesn't need to be deleted.
Roine Stolts Mixes just relocates to the compilations...
And Limited Edition... There's a problem of course)... No chance to attached this review's to the original edition of "Bridge Across Forever"? On emergency, it can be relocate to official singles etc. like Limited Edition...
Or is It seem like a pointless work - relocating albums and reviews? )) Well, should think about proper place for release in the first place..
Anyway, thanks...

I think this has been noticed before, but there are reviews attached to the Transatlantic albums so they can't be deleted.

Well, recently i looked over Transatlantic page and noticed, that in Studio Albums list there are a couple wrong releases ("Bridge Across Forever Limited Edition " and "SMPTe (The Roine Stolt Mixes)"). I think, a place for these releases are in the description of "Bridge Across Forever" album for Limited Edition of "Bridge Across Forever" (like on pages of other artists and bands, where limited and other editions are described in the information about album, but not added like a separate releases), and for "The Roine Stolts Mixes" place is just in the list of compilations, because this is not a studio album.
Neither of these two releases are not studio album, so i suggest to admin or collaborators to relocate their to the right lists.
For example, I look for studio albums for Transatlantic, and find there are 5 albums. But in real there are only 3 albums, and those releases does not count like studio albums.
On Neal Morse page there are "Merry Christmas From The Morse Family" (a proper place would be official singles, promo etc; this is more bootleg, than album) and "The Transatlantic Demos" (place is in compilations, like "One Demos").
And there are some other band pages with such problem...
Sorry for lots of words :), but such relocating seems quite right...
