Big mistakes while editing/adding releases:
- Use Right Societies or "Made in" to determine Country. Example: Many CDs/cassettes/vinyl were made in Holland by EMI Uden or CBS/Sony Haarlem and them have written "Made/Printed in Holland" and the R.S. BIEM/STEMRA. This doesnt mean those entries were released in The Netherlands. Neither BIEM means Europe per se.
- Instead to fix an entry, adding a new one, when it's the same. The easiest way!
- To think that year in (C)(P) or Depósito Legal info is the one for the release, as a rule, while theres more world outside, like cat.no., barcode...
- Bad use of copy-draft. Copy info which is not on your release, copy the year, even the month!
- To confuse artwork with addable info.
- To think that info on releases can't be mistaken and must be added like it is / Do not know interpret the info given; sometimes open mind is very necessary. Example: Sometimes distribution info, R.S., year, etc are copy-pasted between versions of a release and you have to discern which info you take to determine country, year, etc. Sometimes even info is fake!
- This is good: Written-By/Author doesnt mean Alias
- Add to White Label entries any white vinyl label pic you have. Wrong because each vinyl has its press prints, which provides us info.
To be continued.
