Default Brief reminder on the artist linking system

To all staff members who are using the artist system: note that adding artist assignments to an album will override the usual artist name display in the album information panel, so make sure you assign every artist that is listed (even if you don't link any of them later). It goes without saying that you should check and double-check for accuracy and completion of each artist field before processing it. I've come across some albums where artist credits were omitted from display because they were not properly assigned.

Also, please do not set any artists as an "alias" type (third option) for now, as it has a very specific purpose. There'll be more details once I finish tweaking the system.
