The other ProjeKcts have the project nature mentioned in the album title, I'd really like this to be that way as well. People are being misled with the current title, a review just came up which talks about it as a legitimate KC album, which by all accounts it is not.
It's on PA!

New entry "King Crimson ProjeKcts" will lead to new duplications. Believe me, one day somebody will add these ProjeKcts to KC discography. Smile

And you will be there to delete them. You really shouldn't avoid doing something because of the chance someone may idiotically screw it up later.

It seems logical to me that if it wasn't released as King Crimson it shouldn't be under King Crimson. I think it's unlikely that someone will add duplicates later because even the noobiest of n00bs would stop and think for a moment that our King Crimson discography is probably complete, but even if someone did, deleting them will not be a Sisyphean task.

Perfectly agreed. I edited the album to include the whole information.

RYM has the album under Jakko Jakszyk, Robert Fripp & Mel Collins, AllMusic under King Crimson and Wikipedia as "an album by Jakszyk, Fripp and Collins, as A King Crimson ProjeKct". Wacko


EDIT

Also, LOL @ Genesis being the #2 band on PA (there is no #1), and King Crimson being #191.

I hope I'll be there, but my experience on this site tells me that duplications are almost guaranteed.
By the way, if duplications have reviews deleting them is like a Sisyphean task. Nobody, even mighty admins, can move reviews.

Well I have to imagine that Max could move a review if he really wanted to ;-), but you can always just delete the review and PM them the text for reposting, since it is unlikely more than one or two reviews would get into the duplicate before someone noticed.

I'm not saying that I'm certain it will not inconvenience anyone in the future, but I think logic for everybody else is far more important than a few stupid people doing stupid things.

It's what we usually do. Things get worse if the reviewer does not visit PA anymore.

I love logic, but those few people you've mentioned are always here. Wink If Projekcts will be a separate entry, be so.

I'm in agreement with H.Ro.
 
There would be no problem moving the album, and the reviews would go with it OK.
 
What sub-genre would they be added to though?
