I'd like to raise the list's attention to a set of edits being put
through by mistoffeles that are removing track AR credits and applying
them to releases instead for production and composition credits. While I
personally disagree with this based on some of the arguments on this
list (especially once the work has been done), I did not initially vote
against them as I'm not sure what the ruling really is. I am raising it
here, and so now I will vote against, based on my personal opinion. If I
get voted down, so be it. :-)
I raised my concern on one edit at

Of course, the site's UI can make sure it's impossible to add e.g.
composer ARs to the release level. It's now possible to add ARs to all
tracks on a release with almost no more work than adding ARs on the
release level.
So, if a future website version will give a different meaning to track
vs. release ARs, I suggest we force the different ARs being added on
the correct level with a UI change.
