Hi @Niccolo_Terzi,

Can you share a screenshot of the different albums that are associated with each version of this artist?

evand · September 27, 2019, 12:37pm

@dylan, it’s a Rovi issue - same artist, two entries

Niccolo_Terzi · September 27, 2019, 12:45pm

Hiromi

Hiromi Uehara

Note that all my albums are tagged as “Hiromi”
Anyway, the 2 artists should be merged. i could merge them, but this way i would loose part of the infos (members of, web sites on one side, bio on the other)

Thanks for the info here @Niccolo_Terzi and @evand — We are looking into this.

Niccolo_Terzi · February 18, 2020, 1:55pm

the problem is still there…

Disappointingly, I’m not surprised.

Martin_Kelly · February 18, 2020, 4:04pm

I’d take two of her, anytime!

@support
i just want to point out that as (at least since 1.7 upgrade) any request concerning metadata (ANY) has been completely ignored… it is necessary a better merging/editing tool of artists on users side.

I just tried to submit a correction to AllMusic, where this issue seems to originate, suggesting to merge Hiromi Uehara into Hiromi page.
Let’s see if they accept it!

Niccolo_Terzi · February 29, 2020, 3:13pm

i think i did it too.

Niccolo_Terzi · May 21, 2020, 2:05pm

I just want here to quote myself:

@joel?
