Therefore, a new attempt, as the current existence of two profiles without any discernible differentiation is not helpful, but rather highly confusing.
The focus should now be on finding a solution in the interest of the database.
Given the large number of entries, it's difficult to determine which name was used how often, so I see only the following as further indications for merging:
Yes, 100% this should be merged. I honestly don't care which version we use. Just merge them!
I'm now recalling that older thread and recalling how annoying that was. I'm sure most of us commenting on database forum threads are a little bit stickler about rules, but even for most of us there's a limit to how stickler we really need to get. Not everyone I guess!
If there is no clear majority for a name as printed on releases (or, like in this case with more than 1,300 releases, it's too hard to find out), I always think that recording and/or mastering studios should get their PLN profile name as close as possible to as they name themselves officially.
Therefore I vote for
F56
moving the credits from Water Music (2) to Water Music Recorders

+1 for merging and using the name they use officially to hold subs merged in from the short Water Music (2) - if it was legal entity like ltd or corp it would need to be differentiated but it not
The following should migrate to the Hoboken located studio (now listed under other Water Music labels): Ashes Of The Wake Drums recorded at Water Music Studios, Hoboken, NJ
Questionable: Water Music Studios submissions belong with the Hoboken studio. I could not however find which release generated that PLN.
As I'm thinking about this more, put me down as specifically +1 for merging into Water Music Recorders. I won't be upset if it swings the other way, but if that helps make a call easier.
