  Is there a limit to dupes of a set number, ie 700?
 
Is there a limit to how many of a set number may be in the catalog? Specifically, set 700 has a growing number of variants, the latest being 700_20: (URL) problem is that set cannot be found with a 700 search: (URL) thoughts are appreciated. Thanks, (...)

  question marks
 
When editing or adding set info, there's really no point in entering additional question marks down the hierarchy. All it does is cause more lines in the tree view. example: LEGO>DUPLO>?>?>? (20 years ago, 24-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.database)

  Change Anderson to Andersen
 
Hi, please change the name "Anderson" to "Andersen" in all set and category names in the database because the correct name of the guy is "Hans Christian Andersen". Regards Ronald (20 years ago, 19-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Prices in the DB
 
(...) Occasionally, I have noted prices (for sets at least a few years old) that looked like S@H prices. IIRC, S@H used to list an inflated (including shipping) price, but recently (within the last year or two) switched to a 'plus shipping' price (...)

  moving the ROBOLAB sets, and other notes
 
I'm altering the structure for ROBOLAB products so that teachers who search for all ROBOLAB products will get the supplemental sets in their return. So, it's moving from DACTA>ROBOLAB to DACTA>TECHNIC>ROBOLAB. This seems fairly reasonalble, though (...) (20 years ago, 16-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Carefully checking data before entry

  Prices in the DB
 
Throughout the DB, values in the price field should always reflect the original MSRP of the FIRST YEAR of release. So, in a case like this: (URL) need to go back to the 1999 paper DACTA catalog and check the price there. In following years, as the (...) (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.database)

  What about sets that don't have a set number?
 
Hello! In the Lugnet Set Database there are only sets that are searchable by their number.

  Re: DB addition - Bionicle 8715 Ultimate Creatures Accessory Kit
 
(...) My label has "Set" over "Kit". I've fixed the LUGNET entry, and you should probably fix the Peeron entry to match. bzpower uses 'kit', but you can just BARELY read 'set' in the photo of the label there, too. -- joshua (20 years ago, 18-Feb-05, to lugnet.admin.database)
