New artist information sourced from https://tower.jp/item/1115141/WATER-BOYS-2-TV...
@BithnessMan77

Your submission has been put on hold.

Type: new draft
Reason: You should include all of the credits in the draft, not just composers and performers.

Also, for the draft, since these are (mostly) japanese vocals, please use the role names in japanese as given in the tower credits. So, for track 11, you would add these into the draft submission:

作詞: 森雪之丞
作曲: 布袋寅泰

Note that where you see その他, I think it is safe to replace with 歌と演奏 (or with 歌 if it is just vocals). その他 just means "the rest", but we can usually be more specific than that.

We have some tools in the discord server that can parse the credits from Tower or yodobashi and return them in a text file. The end result can almost just be pasted into the draft submission, once you have checked it and fixed it for things like その他, but it is a very helpful tool for these.

@Secret Squirrel I'm used to grouping all the credits together and in English, but if this way is more efficient I'll do that instead. I might check out the Discord server then to use these tools you're talking about.

@BithnessMan77

Oh, the credits in the notes should still be in English. I am talking about the ones for the draft, that become the artist links.

@Secret Squirrel Gotcha. I'm in the Discord server now trying out the tool, but I'm having some trouble. It doesn't seem to recognize the Tower Records link I have for some reason (it's for a new album I'm submitting, not this one.)
