Re: Little bugs in the database 5
Just to avoid doing twice the same job:
will all this fixes be directly committed to zxdb or should someone enter them using the preservation forms?

I agree.Einar Saukas wrote: ↑Tue Aug 25, 2020 7:08 pm Although it's called "DJ Television" in the magazine pages.
Therefore I suggest calling it "DJ Television", but keeping "Triller" as synonym.
Also, please consider amending the publisher, which is obviously "Load'n'Run [IT]".
