I would say that it has been the case of to do in manner that who it introduced the album that it lost the data it can have access to all the given to reinsert to reinsert them. 
 
It is only a my idea but I believe is the better one.  It will be a large one for M@X and companions of the planning but, to my warning, is the most secure (and then is able always to be a function to do to remain fixed). 
 
Naturally one e mail with links should be sent in automatic to all those that they should do the corrections!

However there are still problems with the graph of the reviews and the relevant table (times done not respect of given transmission, I believe).

Oh boy, Mandy - I need to read things three times to catch your drift... Your English is getting better though. Wink

It would be best if M@X could come up with a list of the damaged albums. Discography Edition and Errors & Omissions can take it from there - involving the appropriate people for missing information where applicable.
However, I expect M@X is trying to restore as much as possible from backups and database history first - to lessen the amount of albums that need to be fixed manually.

I've tried searching for (Rename me) but didn't find anything.
 
Damn, that's a great title for an album btw.

It's too fresh to show up in Google finds - M@X can generate it from the database I expect.

EDIT: removed fix information. a list of problematic entries is now available for collaborators.

They'll all be fixed very soon, thanks to MikeEnRegalia's ingenuity.  Many have already been done.

Although the evil axis of deformed trolls and impotent imps did their best to wreak havok on the prog kingdom, they were no match for the invincible m@x that slew them with a single wave of his mighty sword!  Long live the protector of superior music!!!

It`s good to "destroy the Hackers to Bits". I can`t see why some people dedicate their time to try to destroy the work of  others. Those  "Steve Hackers" should be punished legally. Angry

Excellent work, the best reply for thjisi guys is making the site work as soon as possible and you did it, the thanks are for you.
 
It must be frustrating for them to place "The hgame is over" and see the site working the same night.
 
BTW: There's a patch for defacers, I guess the server must ´provide it to you.

Dutch band BRAINBOX albums listed here need re-doing as well, all of them:

each one says (Rename Me), some song titles and times are wiped off clean and neither of them seem to have images showing.

They seem to made a big mess these hackers.

I `ll take care of Brainbox. The loser is probably getting his jollies right now but according to one of my friends who speaks computereese this is the work of a real amatuer.

M@X, many of the covers we grabbed from Google's cache were enlarged to 300px and the quality suffered, is there anyway we can get access to all the original album cover's stored on your server?
What?
