This hasn't been reported before, either on the forums or by mods (and believe me, we mods are always giving OC more problems to investigate). So it's likely to be buried deep in the techie aspects of the site. I don't know for certain, but maybe some of the linking problems you've mentioned could be due to multiple entries using a slightly different form of the artist name. We mods often come across these by chance. I recently entered a UK LP, and found that other entries in other countries of the same record had a complete spider's web of linkages, which took a while to sort out, and I'm still working on getting it completely sorted so it can't happen again. This requires renaming the artist so all names are the same, removing links, adding links, removing alternative names, adding those alternative names back in again,and finally deleting all the unused names. It ain't simple, so sorry in advance if its something a mod has done accidently! I had a fight a couple of weeks back with a name like 'Fred and The Flintstones'. As well as the usual 'Fred with The Flintstones' etc. variations, somebody had entered it with two spaces between 'and' and 'The'. Took me an age to find it
