Particularly for musicbrainz classical, I'm not sure that "no-one
objected" is particularly strong data. Because of the relative
paucity of info on classical releases in MB, I know that I for one
will vote "yes" for Add Release edits which aren't entirely in-style,
on the basis that some data which can be cleaned up later is better
than no data. (Likewise, I will vote "yes" for edits which correct
some, but not all style problems with an entry).
