I suppose you mean like a default button for each entry? Otherwise you could add it yourself like;

http://ftp.pokefinder.org/index.php?s=druid&m=0&h=100 to get all files named "druid".

http://ftp.pokefinder.org/index.php?s=triad&m=2&h=100 to get all dirs named "triad".

But a default button would be a cool feature, for sure.

Yes! A default button for each entry! Like in pouet.net

I'm not 100% sure what you guys want, so perhaps what I just made itsn't exactly it.
What I did, is that I on the edit-page of all releases added a little link that pops up a new window with the searchresults from pokefinder.org.
Then the one who is editing/creating this release, can pick a good link, and add it to CSDb.
I'd still prefer direct links in CSDb, so thats why this new link is only on the edit-page.
If anyone got other similar search-sites, I can easily add another link or two. :)

:(
This way it's not useful, since a lot of entries are locked! If the link was below the download of the actual product pages, people could download the release even if an entry is locked and it's not possible to correct the link

Perhaps it should at least be possible to add/correct files/links to locked entries?

I could also add the link to the front-page. I just don't want that to be an excuse NOT to add links or upload the file.

Idea: Write a routine that only lets the "mirror" button to pokefinder's ftp appear if all download links are broken! ;)

it would do no harm if users are allowed to update broken links.
This locking is a pain in the ass for this database. What if it's only allowed for people to lock their OWN profile?

People can maintain private information like addresses etc.

Now you got the links on both the release-page and it's edit page.

About the locking of entries.
If someone locks an entry it should be because to avoid people of messing up the data. At the same time the one locking the entry is now responsible for maintaining the entry with all the info there is. If they don't they shouldn't lock the entry. I think I have written something like this somewhere in the help/docs...
(There can be situations where people on purpose doesn't want some types of info on their entries, and then they of course have that right.)
