Large cleanups and fixes: Parent/CloneOf relationships, Descriptions, Publishers, Years and added Notes (information provided by spectrumcomputing.co.uk)

[cuavas]

I’m a bit concerned about metadata. Besides “Copper Feet” apparently turning into “Cooper Soft”, the region info seems to be pretty arbitrary. For software released online without any notices prohibiting use outside a particular region, it doesn’t make sense. It also doesn’t make sense for things that are sold globally. Can you please only set the region if it’s clear that software is only licensed for a particular region, or distribution was intentionally restricted to a particular region?

[ArcadeShadow]

Currently, and in the case of this software list, I have associated the region with the origin of the distributor/publisher. But I removed the region on the items available online, since there is no region restriction on them.

[holub]

Currently, and in the case of this software list, I have associated the region with the origin of the distributor/publisher. But I can remove the region indication on all items available online, since there is no region restriction on them.

I assume you may think in case of "Aliens: Neoplasma (Russian)", Russia can become "region". But for author/publisher possibly it will be "Xyz, Russia".

Currently, and in the case of this software list, I have associated the region with the origin of the distributor/publisher. But I removed the region on the items available online, since there is no region restriction on them.

That’s still useless trivia, and you haven’t done it consistently anyway. For example, U.S. Gold was a UK company, but you haven’t added the region for software they published. It wouldn’t be appropriate anyway, as their software was often distributed outside the UK.

Please only add the region on software that you can confirm was only licensed for a particular region, or had distribution restricted to a particular region by choice and not just by lack of resources on the part of the publisher.

Removed all the region information tag

It’s “Copper Feet”, not “Cooper Feet”.

As far as I know there are two versions of Funky Fungus Reloaded: the original 2019 release, and the 2023 update. Are the Funky Fungus Reloaded games added here the 2019 version, or is there actually a separate 2020 version?

(It’s best to hold off on adding the 2023 version as it’s new and still behind a “name your price” barrier, with a default price of €2.)

[cuavas]

There’s also no credit for the new clone “Bloody (P.J. Software)”. Please provide credits for dumps as soon as possible.

It's the 2019 version (see loading screen below).

The 2023 updated version has a different loading screen with ZankleSoft logo (and I haven't added this release)
