Has there been a change in linking albums?

I had two or three new entries today, When I went to "add linked release, and slicked on "confirm release" after I'd done the cut and paste, an error came up that "the albums were already linked" (and checking, yes they were)
It seems the albums are linking before you've confirmed that they were indeed the same record.

The "Linked Releases" of the 1st 2 Joe Jackson records seems to be lost.
- Look Sharp!
- I'm The Man

I can manually link all those 20+ releases for each record. Or do the moderators have a neat trick to do this for me?

I think we may be making some changes to Linked albums soon so maybe hold off on this for now.

Is it not possible to link a vinyl LP and CD (or tape format) of the same release? If not, could such be made possible?

Is it permissible to link a mono and stereo version of the same LP?

I can't see any reason why they shouldn't be linked. Go for it and if it's not liked then they can be un-linked.

There is no need to link them as there is the "Mono/Stereo Link:" function if they are the same LP.

But the "Mono/Stereo Link", on its own, does not enable them to show as linked releases on the actual record pages. They need to be linked as well.
