Why would the database be destroyed? The approach is messed up, but it's possible (with my slow dial up) to access "our collaborators" section, as well as the "bands by the letter" asp pages. All the bands are there, alphabetiset.
Although I can't access members' pages, in initial info still reads a number of reviews per collab(I dont know about the review body and ratings though). So I guess it's not all lost... ------------- |

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 mailto:M@X - 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! -------------

Oh boy, Mandy - I need to read things three times to catch your drift... Your English is getting better though. 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. ------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.
