Used to own

What do I do for albums that I used to own? --Jibblies108 (talk) 15:47, 2 September 2023 (EDT)

They wouldn't be on your collection, correct? TitanicFog (talk) 16:15, 3 September 2023 (EDT)

Unlisted Apollo 18

I was looking through and adding everything to my collection when I found that my Apollo 18, ABCs and No! don't have an option. I'm no good at this tech stuff and I don't wanna mess anything up so if you (or anyone else) could help in me adding them, that would be great. Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Big Big Whoredom (talk • contribs) 04:15, 6 August 2024‎

If they are CDs, there should be a category number on the spine of the case or on the CD itself. If they are vinyl, they'll be on the spine of the cover or the label on the record. Should be something like IDLE182 or 7559-61257-2.--Robot Parade (talk) 05:31, 6 August 2024 (EDT)

Hey sorry, I know this and was successful in adding the ones I have to my collection. I mean they're not listed in the discography section in general and was unsure how to go about adding them to those pages so I could add it to my collection then. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Big Big Whoredom (talk • contribs) 07:14, 6 August 2024‎

We'll need more details about the editions of those albums that are missing here so we can add them. Do they have unique catalog numbers? Are they on Discogs? -CapitalQ ♫ talk ♪ 09:33, 6 August 2024 (EDT)

Heya, the Apollo 18 is on discogs (9 61257-2), the No! is also on discogs (RRCD 8113) and Here Come The ABC's is also on there (61204-7). They aren't on here though. Sorry, I don't really know how to work this stuff! Big Big Whoredom (talk) 03:00, 7 August 2024 (EDT)

It seems like your Apollo 18 CD is the initial CD release (61257-2), and Here Come The ABCs is the alternate catalog CD (5008 61204-7). Not sure on the No! release, might be an initial UK release that the wiki doesn't have built in. Would probably want to get confirmation from a collector better than me though, haha--Robot Parade (talk) 09:04, 7 August 2024 (EDT)

looking at the discogs entry it appears to be something we already have listed, just not very well. i'll fix it momentarily. -- 20:19, 7 August 2024 (EDT)

Okay, I think I fixed everything on my page. Thank you everyone for helping me out, means a lot :)Big Big Whoredom (talk) 02:52, 8 August 2024 (EDT)
