irobot: so simply because the word "inkasso" is in CitizenKain's email address you think they are a lawyer coming to do something to redump?
This is ridiculous for multiple reasons:
1. This is a huge leap in logic
2. There is nothing illegal about redump and I don't see why any copyright holder or lawyer would be concerned about some game metadata
3. How would giving them an account make a difference. What are they going to do? Send a cease and desist disguised as a dump submission?

I suppose you can see what is essentially a "sanitised" version of the new disc submission by looking in a disc page's history.

I suggest that when this "seperated dumps" system is implemented, all old entries be kept with the old system and all further submissions be added using the new system. The old entries can be "ported" across to the new system on an individual basis - people could make fix threads where they provide evidence to demonstrate which bits of data go with which dump, e.g. using dump submission threads, disc page histories (and by asking dumpers or just working it out logically, if necessary)

What systems do you have?

Serial numbers on the wiki are generally just list known serial numbers of boxes that have the disc inside. There may be more that what are listed.

I assume this new format would be just as accurate?

Its true that the packaging may be too unreliable for it to be worth linking with other info. Maybe the info could be presented as-is, and as a way for people to judge the reliability of the data, the page would list how many "verifications" there have been of that data. Or maybe there is a way to tell that something has been re-packaged? I don't know.

But I think it would definitely be a good idea to match ring codes + disc serials.

The usual way for programs to use the data is by getting the user to download a dat file and provide the program with it. But I appreciate this may not be what you want.

You won't find xbox games for download here (or that much about xbox modding). This site is about dumping and cataloguing discs, including xbox discs.

Why does that matter?

You can get access to a Wii disc dat here if you post a few Wii disc dumps, but I there isn't any Wii BIOS dat anywhere here (or anywhere full stop that I know of). But No-Intro will probably get Wii system update titles datted soon.
