 | whitewhale1965 Let's make it Better! Member since Jun 2012 12170 Points | Some members may know that I have been lending a hand with populating the Classical World with items from all other Worlds. Items that absolutely MUST exist in their proper Worlds, but also qualify as Classical material. You want to help out? We're happy to have you! There are 2 main things I'd like to point out. 1: It is not a good idea to click the I OWN IT option on any page in Classical World when you already OWN it in another World. This is because you'll then own 2 identical items. And then your collection numbers are skewed - if you care. If Classical is your thing, then only own your items in Classical World. I've been using the SEE ALSO option (bottom of every page) to link to the same items in Classical World. This should be more than sufficient for most members. I know I'm forgetting something, but this blurb covers most of what you need to know about that. 2: Members are adding to Classical World and skipping the proper Original Worlds altogether. This causes me so much stress, because I know that those items will have to be copied from Classical to the other Worlds where they originally belonged. Who's gonna volunteer for that? Let's face it, CDs ALL belong in CD World. LPs, 45s, tapes go in The Original Worlds - all of them! I see the Classical additions piling up every single day, and it's awesome for Classical World, but, to the detriment of this entire website. I already understand just how many Classical items are strewn throughout the Worlds (needing to be copied). It's literally mind-boggling. I have no remedy for what is happening. Hopefully, the power of the many minds of our membership will come up with some solutions — if indeed these are considered problems or are just dark clouds in my mind alone.  |

 | Redpunk SUBS Crates Are For Digging Member since Aug 2012 25243 Points Moderator | The easy way to overcome the collection issue is take your total 45cat/45world collection and minus your Classical collection total from that figure to gat a true total of your collection. |

 | The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS🍰 My body is on the diminishing streak. Member since Dec 2011 8070 Points Moderator | The question of "I Own" was asked way back when Classical Music World was implemented with the answer being OK giving you duplicate ownership of a single item. Entirely up to the individual member as to how they want to handle their ownership. |

 | nboldock Lend me ten pounds and I'll buy you a drink. Member since Feb 2012 7169 Points Moderator | I think I copied everything classical that I had personally added from the "normal" worlds to classical some time ago but I'm happy to double check. And yes it is annoying when things are added ONLY to Classical World! |

 | LaurenceD SUBS Member since Aug 2011 7672 Points Moderator | I still have quite a few items that I entered as classical-only early on, and am in the process of going through them and adding the additional entry where appropriate. I also click "I Own" on both entries, in case someone has a question or request about a particular item; I'm not concerned about the collection numbers. |
