any staff can undo my album title edit?

I think it's the second time that something like that happens

first one was with that sacred seven maid album, I had changed because of the english site of hmv and since the anime site had no info about maids, I thought it was accurate until they (anime site) updated the character page with lots of maids
and now that
my first idea was the good one

I don't have an automated way to roll-back an edit by a trusted editor. I'd have to do it manually, so it'd probably be easier for you to re-edit it. This can help:

I'm not quite clear on when to include the artist's name in the title of an entry. Of the 5 times on this soundtrack that the title is written as La croisée dans un labyrinthe étranger ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK, ko-ko-ya follows directly afterward on 4 of them. Doesn't that make it part of the title? Personally, I'd say no. But then I see albums like Actraiser and I'm a bit thrown off. I understand that most singles CDs include the artist's name (although Eyes On Me doesn't, and it actually includes Faye Wong more often than it includes the text we have), but Actraiser is a soundtrack like this one and we included the artist's name there.

I'm not trying to dish out any criticism, I just don't want to change the title of something to make it less consistent with what we usually do, or even with what we want to usually do. I'll capitalize Original Soundtrack here at any rate.

Artist names shouldn't be included for soundtracks. Only really for singles and albums.

There's bound to be some inconsistencies like Actraiser and Eyes On Me that have slipped through over the years but those are few in number. If you see any like those, feel free to correct them.
