First, inventory the sets, which is pretty easy - just the cat and the baseplate:
etc.
Then add the inventories for each figure - you may need to add some parts to
the catalog:
etc.

The top right corner of the form is where you select the Item Type (Set, Minifig,

I shouldn't think so. Almost all sets already have an undetermined version.
The "a" version only appears in 4 sets and I imagine those could be just left
the way they are. If someone determines that they came with the variant you've
discovered, then the inventories can be changed.

I got these sets was to simplify things, but I fear this complicates them. Do
a lot of inventories with A need to be changed to an undetermined long connector

I really like the idea of this set. I wish it weren't so small. If the
big roller coaster had this theme or some other theme, I don't think I would
resist it.

| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Delete 4 Part 3003 Trans-Clear Brick 2 x 2
* Add 4 Part 3003old Trans-Clear Brick 2 x 2 without Inside Supports
Comments from Submitter:
Part 3003 appears in this 1964 set, but then does not appear in any set for another 20 years until 1984. This seems very likely to be an error on the part of the submitter, especially since all other 3003 bricks in the set are 3003old.
Will leave this request open for a bit for comments.

80s and 90s sets and came across this issue. I have the original instructions
booklet from a 1995 set that shows the valid part.

But that booklet does not rectify to delete the Type I from the inventory.
Even if the new type was invented by Lego at the time the instruction layout
(which is only a drawing) was created, old variants still appear in sets, produced
at that time, since Lego always mixes new and old variants in the same bins in
their storage.
So it *can* happen (and has happened) that sets contain a new variant and when
a bin is emptied close to the bottom, the old variants appear and are put in
new sets.
So, given the various changes to the inventory of set 6279, both types of the
bush should be in the inventory, one of them as alternate.

4265a replaced with 4265b as per original instructions.

Some strange changes were made to this set.
Set originally inventoried with "a" type then in 2010 "a" type changed to "b"
type in regular section. In 2012 "a" type return but as an alternate. Finally
in 2013 in regular section "b" type changed to "a" but "a" left in alternate
So now we have "a" in both regular and alternate section.
Unfortunately, any discussion about these changes remain.
And here we go again, this mess have to be straighten
Can somebody shed some light on this matter?

It seems the change was already made but here is further evidence, if it helps.
I've attached a photo of the 1995 instructions I came across that shows the
valid part. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks.

| When adding an item to my wanted list, I typically want it in 5 colors. As it
is, I have to add the item in each color or select 'no-applicable' which
means when I check a store I get a rainbow of the item which slows my search.
When I add an item it should just let me select boxes for the desired colors.

Based on the way Storm-chaser treats this type of cases, you should ONLY accept
any of these variations if there is an evidence: sealed set or an owner who has
kept the set with original parts.
All my inventories supported with any other type of evidence (including instructions)
have been rejected.
I don't think it is correct to have various procedures depending on which
admin check the request.

Our system on BrickLink is based on the reliability of the username.

Before there is evidence, there must be a reliable deliverer of that evidence.
In any court of law, testimonies are given about the nature of the evidence as
to where and when it was found. If the testimonies can't be believed, than
neither can the evidence.
That having been said, it is very helpful and important that contributors document
their presentations as thoroughly as possible. So I'm not saying evidence
is not necessary. But the BrickLink catalog relies principally on a large group
of contributors who have built up their reputation on the site to the point where
their submissions can be trusted.
|
Any new user can submit new information to the catalog. If there is enough evidence,
the submission is accepted. At that time, the contributor does not have a reputation
yet. The submission is a first step in building that.
Our large group of contributors have gained their reputation of being reliable
because they have shown consistent and careful evidence-based work. That reputation
has to be based on something more than just a large number of catalog change
requests.
|
Of course, new users have to start somewhere, and we extend to each one a certain
token amount of goodwill. And their work gets checked extra carefully.

My apologies.
| | As for the way I treat these kinds of cases, read this message from less than
a month ago:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1091324
I did exactly the same thing there that Marek did with this request for 6279
and I said:
| | I don't consider the thin ring clip variant proven to have appeared in this set, but I am adding it back into the inventory as a regular part to avoid inconsistency in the catalog.
|
|
Yes you did (but you were reluctant to do so). But I am not following everything
here:
You wrote many times that inconsistency of catalog cannot be a reason to add
a variant of a part and this would not be considered as evidence. Should we distinguish
the regular and alternate (later variant)? For what reason?
I can give many instances in which you didn't accept to add a variant because
a similar set released on the same years came also with that variant (and I do
agree that this is not enough at all. But I will continue the other "probabilistic
discussion soon...")

Which is relatively recent, to my mind. Six months with no buying/selling transactions
and no other catalog/inventory activity until now.
| | Why could this not be a new user who found something odd in the inventory and
is now being helpful and trying to correct the information?
|
This very well could be the case. But maybe it's not.
| | Am I missing something here?
|
Sometimes people have more than one account. That may not be what's happening
here, but maybe it is.

Based on the way Storm-chaser treats this type of cases, you should ONLY accept
any of these variations if there is an evidence: sealed set or an owner who has
kept the set with original parts.
All my inventories supported with any other type of evidence (including instructions)
have been rejected.
I don't think it is correct to have various procedures depending on which
admin check the request.

Our system on BrickLink is based on the reliability of the username.

Could we please rephrase that to:
"The system on BrickLink is evidence based. When in doubt the judgement can be
based on the reliability of the username."
I think that is what you mean to say. The way it was written could be interpreted
with a completely different meaning.

Is it?
The user signed up 6 months ago.
The proposed change is a simple part version change.
The change request only became complicated because of the change history which
the user might not have known.
The change request was made less than 24 hours ago. To early to say he does not
comment.
Why could this not be a new user who found something odd in the inventory and

My username does not have a hyphen and the second word is capitalized: StormChaser.
As for the way I treat these kinds of cases, read this message from less than
a month ago:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1091324
I did exactly the same thing there that Marek did with this request for 6279
and I said:
| | I don't consider the thin ring clip variant proven to have appeared in this set, but I am adding it back into the inventory as a regular part to avoid inconsistency in the catalog.

1983-90:

The reviewer doesn't say if he opened a new one but this copy is so neat
coming with everything, like the clear inner tray and catalog of 1995. The catalog
shows that this copy was from 1995 and we can see in the images 4265a.
My guess is that in the early releases, 4265a was used but it is likely that
in the following year, it got replaced by 4265b.

Some strange changes were made to this set.
Set originally inventoried with "a" type then in 2010 "a" type changed to "b"
type in regular section. In 2012 "a" type return but as an alternate. Finally
in 2013 in regular section "b" type changed to "a" but "a" left in alternate
So now we have "a" in both regular and alternate section.
Unfortunately, any discussion about these changes remain.
And here we go again, this mess have to be straighten
Can somebody shed some light on this matter?

I'm sure that this set should have both variant "a" and "b" in inventory
(one of them as alternate), another set from the same year for example
the only strange think were these changes through years with final result having
the same part variant twice

| Nope, the price was 70 for 2 items (I did not do screenshot as I gave up buying)
so if he sold for 60 he is even worse...
I guess it is better to go back to ebay. You guys really don't have any boundaries...
