All the wrong spelled artist in the cards here!

[NightyGeko.it]

I've decided to open this topic because I've seen an error of spelling on a chart and for this reason the database don't recognize the artist as one but as two different artists. It could be a good idea to put here all the errors in spelling found by users of this forum instead to open a new topic every time there is an error...

In the Ukraine chart there is a new entry at #26 K Maro.
Is considered by the database as a new artist with a new song but is the same artist present in many European chart.
K Maro = K-maro
in Ukraine is considered K Maro, while in the other countries is considered K-Maro

here the info of K-maro

I've seen that the chart from Russia has been updated.

I don't know why if I click for example on Alcazar, but I think it is valid also for other artists, in the main artist page the new charts updated are not counted.

Example: Alcazar - This Is The World We Live In says this number in the general artist page (114|16|131) but it doesn't consider the last charts from Russia that has been just updated. In fact in the chart from Russia or also opening the page of the song says that the total is (117|16|...).

I've forgotten to tell that this things has happened also with other charts updated in the last days... example Do they know it's Christmas says 101charts on is page but if you go in the chart from Denmark or any other chart in Europe it says 107 or more...

[MarkG]

yes, due to our cache system, the individual song pages dont get immediately updated with new chart data. we are working on an improvement in this issue

Thanks for the info.
Now I've seen that the problem seems solved!

I've one question...
Looking at the chart from Australia and UK I've noticed this singles:
Millionaire - Kelis
Goodies - Ciara
In other charts are considered as:
Millionaire - Kelis & Andre 3000
Goodies - Ciara & Petey Pablo
are different versions of the same singles or only an error due to different sources?

[MarkG]

no it's due to different sources and imperfection of data insertion algorithms (and the people watching over it :))

we're working on a fix-up tool for situations like this, please do post whenever you find anything. thanks!

I've seen that in Switzerland and Germany there is a song Schnappi - Schnappi at the top of the chart... while in Austria there is Schnappi, Das Kleine Krokodil - Schnappi probably it's the same song.
