Thanks, added info to the original entry. Will re-use deluxe page for some newly added release. I think in cases like these we should have no mercy - 3 or several bonus tracks don't make a new release.

Over the past five days, I've re-scanned all of PA's album pages — nearly 80,000 in total. Now, I can analyze them in any way you'd like. To my surprise, only eight pages have the "�" issue: These should be easy to fix. Would you like me to check for anything else in this fresh database?

You scanned the albums database back at the end of January 2021 to reveal all the other common issues that occur when site members add albums without due care and attention, and there were 16257 albums with no total time, somewhere around 9768 albums without individual track times, 59 albums with empty track lists, 2443 albums with empty line-ups and 4928 albums with empty release info. We dealt with the 59 empty track lists as a team effort, but the rest of it was considered to be an impossible task, so was left alone. Doubtless even more of these albums with incomplete data will have been added during the four years that have elapsed since you last scanned the database, but since we are powerless to do anything about it there's not really any point in scanning the fresh database that you have just compiled, other than for interest's sake. Perhaps another check for empty track lists might be worth doing, since any more of those that have been added in the last four years would be fairly easy to correct again. I guess it would be interesting to know just how much these other lists have grown over the last four years as well even if we can't do anything to fix them, so if you have the time to do it, then why not? ![]() |

^ Well, there have been some nice improvements since 2021. Most of the numbers have decreased, despite the fact that the database has grown significantly. See for yourself:
I think we could fix empty track lists. Below, I've listed 52 albums that meet at least one of the following criteria: - No track list at all - A track list with fewer than 10 characters - The words "Track title (" are present within the track list Do you accept this new challenge?
