      Good luck trying to find your version if it's European/German. There must be around 2-3 submissions for every valid release because either people can't be bothered to correct, detailed information and pics, or can't be bothered actually looking for their version and so just their own. If I had the time I would try and unpick the mess but it would be a full-on solid days work. Some serious merging needed here folks!!
