Please answer me this: What is the legimation of a user translated
entries
in the database, if it wasn't released in this form? I have seen no
objections against the ideas of creating translations in the database, I
think this should be adressed first.
IMO this AR is needed regardless. there are plenty of albums that have
one tracklisting in one country, and another in another - note I am
talking about the *text* on the tracklisitng, nothing else.
Thanks for being realistic. :)
Although you seem to be for merging them, you understand that, since we have
them and they won't just go away, we need to handle them somehow. And to
everyone: when discussing relationship types, please always keep in mind that
they are essential for NGS. The AR data will be used excessively to do the
initial data transformation to the next schema [1].
what i was saying is I don't think it's intended for actual
translations of the *songs* themselves (eg a band doing a song in
their native german, and then releasing an version with re-recorded
english lyrics).
Which is exactly what Nikki's initial mail said. :)
