Following my question about artist ranking methodology (separate thread), I just wanted to point out a few inconsistencies I’ve noticed while compiling my playlists (I use the artist rankings for some of them, so I greatly appreciate this website and understand how difficult it is to keep things consistent).

Featured artists with AM ranking:
Earth Wind & Fire with The Emotions - Boogie Wonderland: The Emotions are a ranked AM artist but get no additional credit for this song

Featured artists without AM entry:
Bob Hope/Shirley Ross - Thanks for the Memory: this is Bob Hope’s only contribution listed on AM, so I’m wondering why he gets ranked, but she doesn’t (would make sense to rank them together )

Peter Bjorn and John feat. Victoria Bergsman - Young Folks: this is Peter Bjorn and John’s only contribution listed on AM (besides a bubbling under album) so I’m wondering why they get ranked, but she doesn’t (would make sense to rank them together)

Is there a separate policy for artists who get featured on more than one song? Astrud Gilberto is featured on “The Girl from Ipanema” by Getz/Gilberto. It’s her only appearance on AM, but she actually is also featured on the song “Corcovado”, which is also ranked on AM (albeit significantly lower)?

Various Artists albums (I’ve noticed some inconsistencies in how the artists in these albums get credited)

Tropicalia ou Panis et Circensis: all artists have an individual entry on AM that includes this album, even those with no other songs or albums listed (ex: Nara Leāo)

However:

Woodstock: there are several artists ranked separately in AM, but no one gets credit for this album

Saturday Night Fever: there a couple of artists ranked separately in AM, but no one gets credit for this album except Bee Gees (who obviously deserve a larger boost from it than anyone else)

No New York: Contortions are ranked separately in AM, but they get no credit for this album; of note, all four groups contribute significantly to this album

O Brother Where Art Thou (technically an Original Soundtrack album, but for all intents and purposes it’s a compilation of various artists): there are several artists ranked separately in AM, but no one gets credit for this album

I know no changes will be made until 2024, but I’d be curious (and very grateful) to know if I should assume any of the artists alluded to would be getting a different ranking on account of these observations.

I understand that he was born in New York City, but it still feels weird for 2Pac, a rapper almost synonymous with California rap, is listed as an artist "born, raised, and/or currently living" in New York state. Should an exception be made for cases such as this? Or would that just complicate things?

NME's "100 Best Songs of the 00s" list has been double counted, it's showing up twice under two slightly different names for all songs that are featured on it (e.g. "Paris" by Friendly Fires is ranked #66 on the same list twice on AM).

It seems that the album The Audience with Betty Carter was released in 1980 and not in 1979:
Database entry: http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/album/A2028.htm
Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Audie ... tty_Carter

Furthermore, it seems that the album Soul Revolution/African Herbsman has the wrong album cover:
Database entry: http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/album/A1137.htm
RYM has a different cover: http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/ ... revolution
The wrong cover comes from this album: https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album ... erbsman-7/

The acclaimed version of "Wabash Cannonball" is (generally) the 1947 version by Roy Acuff and the Smokey Mountain Boys rather than the 1938 version by Roy Acuff and the Crazy Tennesseans (the artist credit is already correct): http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/song/S2641.htm

The "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" (Soggy Bottom Boys, vocals by Dan Tyminski) version of "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow" seems to be on the CMT The 100 Greatest Songs of Country Music at number 20. http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/song/S8482.htm
https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~dtompkin/music/list/Best7.html, https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/cm ... ic/5144907

Ernest Tubb's Walking the Floor Over You appears on Playlist 7 of Steve Sullivan's book.

The acclaimed version of Eddy Arnold's "Cattle Call" is the 1955 version with Hugo Winterhalter's Orchestra.

The Chuck Wagon Gang's "I'll Fly Away" was inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2020.

Dooley Wilson's version of "As Time Goes By", though recorded in 1943, was released in 1946.

Howlin' Wolf's 'Crying at Daybreak' (released and recorded in 1951) is his later 'Smokestack Lightning' in all but name from the chords right down to Burnett's vocal delivery. The lyrics are essentially identical, including the later song's title in the exact same place.

Jimmy Eat World's 2001 album should bear its alternate, eponymous title to mirror 'Bleed American/Salt Sweat Sugar' and its acknowledgement of different names for separate markets. It might be minor but Bleed American's appearances on Woxy and Heatsound's year-end lists as Jimmy Eat World seem to have led the 2 sources not to have been counted viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3705

"You! Me! Dancing!" by Los Campesinos (#2265) has two slightly different versions: one from 2007 that was a single and features on the EP Sticking Fingers into Sockets as well as another version from the album Hold on Now, Youngster...

It might be worth adding a note to the song's page similar to those seen on songs like "Time to Pretend" and "Kids." Then again, the two versions are pretty similar, unlike the MGMT tracks. I'm not sure where the line should be drawn here, but I figure there's no harm in bringing it up.

A new version came out in 2019 for songs and will be in the next update (Be patient again 2 years to wait...)
For albums (not on AM), the 2019 book replace the older versions coming from facebook page of author which doesn't exist anymore.
