Need help with that title:
信長の野望 嵐世記
I think is "Nobunaga no Yabou: Arashi yo-ki" but in all pages is marked as "Ranseiki".
The Serial is: SLPM-62148
"Nobunaga no Yabou: Ranseiki" is correct.

想フ is just an old way of spelling 想う, I think.
The series of kana ha hi fu he ho are used to represent, in some words, the sounds wa, i, u, e, o, respectively.
My understanding is that the lead-in is 150 sectors (2 seconds)
That's not the lead-in, that's the track 1 pregap. The lead-in comes before that.
Thats right?

It identifies which stamper was used to make the disc. A single glass master is used to make several different stampers which are then used to make the actual discs.
Mastering codes are present on the glass master and get copied over to all the stampers, but the toolstamp and mould text are added later in the process, so they can be different between discs from the same master. (At least that's my understanding.)
Or are the spaces ignored entirely with narrow bars being 0 and wide being 1?
Yes. E.g. Final Fantasy VII (Europe) (Disc 1):

Though I don't know what 9789 is (maybe a checksum?), and there's nothing corresponding to "15" in the barcode. The second shorter barcode corresponds to the toolstamp.
How does one volunteer as a moderator?
I've made what I hope is a pixel-perfect reproduction of the DADC Austria logo: 
My idea was that this could potentially be displayed on the redump.org website as an automated replacement for "DADC AUSTRIA" in ringcodes, to more accurately represent what's actually on the disc. Something similar could potentially be done for other logos, at least the low-resolution ones.

Demo Disc?
Yep.

"This software is under development."
I just searched the dump for "BD" and "H+" in a hex editor.
Mac filesystems do have analogous things to PVDs, although they may not at the same location for every disc. Older HFS discs have a Master Directory Block (MDB), and HFS+ discs have a Volume Header.
For Crystal Caliburn (HFS), the MDB is in sector 3, which I guess is probably standard:
The highlighted bytes are the creation date and the modification date, which using this translates into 1996-09-24T15:22:16-04:00 and 1997-01-02T12:25:19-05:00. There's also a backup date at 0x0440, which is 1996-12-10T14:09:51-05:00.
Giants: Citizen Kabuto is different, probably because it's a hybrid HFS/HFS+ disc. I had to search the dump to find the headers. The MDB for this disc is in sector 242:
I.e. created 2003-01-20T04:50:52-05:00, modified same date. (The Mac port was originally released in 2001, apparently, so I guess that means this is a re-release.) The HFS+ header is in sector 10498:
Created: 2003-01-20T04:50:52-05:00
Modified: 2003-01-21T18:38:45-05:00
Backup: 1903-12-31T19:00:00-05:00
Checked: 2003-01-20T10:50:52-05:00
Disc 1 and disc 2 of Giants: Citizen Kabuto put the headers in the same sectors (242, 10498).
Hybrid PC/Mac discs should have this information too, though we currently only record the PC side.
Logical Journey of the Zoombinis Deluxe has the MDB in sector 26 (and at 0x0600 instead of 0x0400 like the others).
Sim City Classic has it at sector 92172.
WarCraft II: Battle.net Edition has it at sector 18479 (and at 0x200).
Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? Classic Edition has it at sector 107449.
So hybrids seem to be unpredictable, but I only have one example of a non-hybrid disc. I'd be interested to see what your Carmen Sandiego disc has.

2: To romanize the music composer of すらいムしよう！ title, so that I can finally tag properly the music tracks extracted:

Okada Tooru. Though it's mostly written "Tohru Okada" in practice (e.g. on Discogs).
By the way, which is the correct romanization of すらいムしよう！? Slime Shiyou! or Suraimu Shiyou!?
It can go either way.
There are lists for various platforms on the wiki which you could add to if you want.
There's a number of discs in the database with text like "MADE IN GERMANY BY UNIVERSAL M & L", or "MADE IN GERMANY BY PMDC", etc. It's usually listed as being part of the additional mould text. But I have one of these (an audio disc), and it has a reflective section where the transparent mould part would usually go, and the "MADE IN GERMANY" text is on the reflective part. I.e. it seems to have been added at the mastering stage. The mould SID code seems to be on a different layer and is much more difficult to read.
Is it the same with the other "MADE IN GERMANY" discs? What about the "UEP-CD Лицензия МПТР России ВАФ № 77-15" text that some Russian discs have, and similar things from other manufacturers? Could someone post a photo?
Adding ringcodes to the DB is kind of problematic. People don't know what to include and what to ignore (barcodes, logos, those little o oo oooooooo things Sony discs have), sometimes they miss stuff because it's small and they don't know what to look for, sometimes they mistranscribe stuff or order things in different ways, etc. For consoles the mods can tell people if something is missing or wrong, but for things like PC or audio CDs there's a lot more variation.
So, I've begun making wiki pages for different disc manufacturers and the kinds of ringcodes they use. See the page for Future Media for an idea of what I'm planning. But I can only describe the discs I've seen up close myself, so I need someone else to describe the other types. And also I need people to check that when I've listed one of their discs as a particular type, that it actually matches the description (since I haven't seen the discs, I'm just going by what's in the DB).
I've also started a big List of SID codes. Mostly for curiosity but it can also help to make sure the codes are correct or to help identify regions.
It's nice to see that the wiki is back, but it really really needs some kind of spam protection. 
For CDs with a single data track cdrdao works fine, likewise dd works for dvds.
For CDs with audio tracks cdparanoia probably works. I haven't actually tested it much myself, but I just tried it now and its output (in little endian mode) seems to match EAC. However cdparanoia appends pregaps to the previous track so you'd have to add/remove them manually.
For Isobuster's sector view function there's cd-read. It seems to work fine for working out the offset, but when trying to get the PVD info, for some reason it only seems to work when you tell it that the track is mode 2 form 2 (even when it's mode 1).
Also the format it gives is slightly different from Isobuster so I'm not sure if the new disc form would handle it properly.
Isobuster:

So.. any idea when DJoneK's getting back? Or if not, any plans to have someone else pick up the slack?
Use linux
Speaking of filename issues... ...Iru! starts with a period, which makes the file hidden on Linux and could confuse people. I think it should probably be changed to just "Iru!".
Your drive's offset is shifting the data forward by an entire sector. To calculate the combined offset, you have to start counting from sector 130457, and continue into sector 130458. So there's actually 2352+320 bytes = +668 samples, and the write offset is +1.
Since there was no undumped list for IBM-PC, I put together a list of games published by Interplay. Maybe similar things could be done for other publishers, though they don't all use equally informative serials.
Some discs that are actually dumped might be listing as "missing" or not listed at all, because the serials are often missing from the DB, which means I can't be sure which version it is. So if anyone has those discs it'd help if the serials were added.
Also, some of the regions should be double checked. Most Interplay games are US releases, and the European versions have letters marking what region they are. But the DB currently has some discs marked as Europe or Australia that look from the serial to be US releases.
They're actually all Chinese.
