Turrican III / Smash Level 3-1 Video
Someone added this non-C64 release to the database. It's a DivX-clip of the upcummin turrican 3. I deleted it again, but just wanted to post the link to the clip:

Just delete it. There are other sites for this stuff. |

No problem with deleting the stuff. My Breakpoint03 Wild Compo entry doesn't really fit into this database as well (but I didn't put it in here, so blame somebody else (: ) |

Hey guys, not so fast! The two mentioned releases are neither mp3's-remixes, nor "nostalgia-stuff". The show *new* C64-software (and hardware). Doesn't that qualify as advancing the C64-scene?
And if you want to "keep the database clean" (whatever that's supposed to mean), then just create a more fitting category instead of deleting stuff. |

Man man, Hurrican, you are so right! Exactly the way how I meant it! So, do not delete such entries with useful stuff, instead the "Most Drunken Scener" entry which is quite useless should get removed... but that's only my personal opinion!
But Hurrican is totally right, thank you :D |

Well, I remember other "off topic" releases like the Commodore Safety Jacket and the carved Pumpkins that were allowed on to the database... So I think a video of a future game project should be allowed to stay.
However, there should be some strict rules. As Cyberbrain said, sites like remix64 are best for MP3s/remixes. If it's posted here, it should be scene related in some way. |

Creating new categories just means more stuff that shouldn't be here. CSDB should only contain info about products that run on a c64, those that create it (and can be considered part of the scene) and scene-related events. Anything else just clutters up the database.
And yes, imho that goes for covers too. What's next, a category for swapping-letters? I've got some great ones by Bagder & Cycleburner, maybe they'll wind up in the top 10 :) |

At the startpage from CSDB stands:
"A site dedicated to gathering as much information as possible about the productions, the groups, the sceners and the events in the Commodore 64 scene."
That doesn't mean that i have to add videos with someone coding a demo, etc. Only infos on productions and other scene related things.
Just my two cents. |

You say it:

IMHO that includes coverage, being information about productions. |

Yes, but in this case you're talking about information (the csbd entry) about information (the coverage). And me thinks that's one level too deep.

Ed and Joe are working on a demo that will be called L'Encyclopédie Géométrique, and they have been for several years. Before starting any code and gfx-making on the c64 they spent a considerable amount of time between 1995-1999 on the video version, which should be considered a blue print for the demo to come. The video version was made using the C64, Amiga-computers and various other electronics. I consider this worth mentioning in CSDB, since it's very much scene related.
Here's the csdb link:
http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=11760&show=summary
@Cyberbrain:
Is this scene related or not?
If not, then perhaps CSDB should be renamed to CRDB - (The c64 release database).
